Hi there! My name is Deana and I want to welcome you to my travel blog. I’m so glad you’re here!! September 5th, my husband Jeff and I packed up and set off on a tremendously-amazing-and-utterly-terrifying new life exploring the world. Hey, why don’t you go grab yourself a cup of coffee and I’ll tell you all about it.
Alright, here goes. We are 50somethings. We chose to have a large family, now all adults, and had never traveled out of the United States except for that one trip driving into Canada. Yeah, that was a good trip. Anyway, as you can imagine, we have been “wide-eyed” ever since our first steps off the plane.
Biggest question: why? Why would you quit your jobs, leave family and friends and all you know to do such a crazy and what some would say “stupid” thing? Well, that’s what this is all about. I’m here to share:
Why?!
What was it like leaving?
My first impressions
Our daily life
Making connections
Cultural experiences
What it’s like working as a “slomad”
Travel tips
Celebrations and moments of complete wonder,
