Finding Balance
Life has changed over the past month. Big changes. Great changes. A new season of our lives. Time to reconnect with family and old friends. How are we finding balance in these changing times?
London For History Nerds Like Us
What I love the most about London is that it is a city of juxtaposition. Towering skyscrapers next to a 1000 year old castle. Roman walls and traffic jams. Narrow streets with names like Poultry Ave, Pudding Lane, Crutched Friars, and Ironmonger Lane, in a city with some of the most expensive real estate in the world. You can buy a $130M yacht at Harrods, or drink a pint at a tavern that was rebuilt in 1666 after the Great Fire. While I love all the modern aspects of this city, my history loving heart skips a beat just thinking of all there is to see in London.
London Calling…A Love Affair
Depending on your interests, London Calling can either reference the BBC identification during World War 2, or the song by the Clash, released in 1979. I like to think of it as the anticipatory buzz that I feel when I know I’ll be visiting this great city.
Two Weeks Based in Scotland
This was our third time visiting Scotland, and we still haven’t been to Loch Ness or spent time in Glasgow! There really is something for everyone, from cities to golf to whisky to hiking. We think it suits best as a vacation spot, and we’d recommend at least 10-14 days with a car to experience it all. Will we be back as nomads? Probably not, but we’d say it is a can’t miss vacation destination for anyone who likes adventure!
