Join us here on our photoblog as we wander around the world.

This site is a place for our friends and family to keep track of us, and to share any travel or nomadism tidbits that we come across.

Let us know if you have a question about a travel destination, digitizing your photo albums, or anything in between by joining our Facebook community or sending us a note here.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
