In Search of Sun
Over thirty years of marriage we’ve had endless conversations about whether we like winter or summer better. For most of our adult lives we lived in Kansas City, where the winters are unbearably cold and the summers are unbearably hot. By the end of July you are longing for snow. And in February you can’t wait to sweat. Now that we are homeless, we can decide exactly what kind of weather we want! So as we planned our 2026 and early 2027 itineraries, it all focused around seeking sun and 60-80 degrees. And note…we left our cold weather clothes behind in Kansas last month, so it better be warm!
Here’s a glimpse into where the road will lead us over the next 16 months.
One Year of Nomading
Yesterday marked one year of our nomad life. We’ve done some reflecting over the past few days. Was there anything we learned about ourselves? About the world? What surprised us? What do these things mean for the future?
Waltzing Up the Blue Danube
We spent seven nights aboard Avalon Waterway’s Tranquility II, cruising from Budapest, Hungary to Visegrad, Germany with Eric’s parents. This was a classified as an Active and Discovery cruise with Avalon, and it was our first experience on a river cruise. Would we do a river cruise again? What did we think about Avalon? Follow along for all of the details!
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?
