We’re about
ready to travel again and so we’re resurrecting our blog! I see that last time we got just over a month
into our year-long trip before the postings stopped. Hopefully we’ll do better this time, but no
promises!
Our basic
6-month itinerary is Columbia, Chile/Argentina, Easter Island, Tahiti,
Australia, Indonesia, Bhutan, India, Sri Lanka, North Korea (maybe), South
Korea, Japan, Canada.
Everything
past Tahiti is flexible, we’d love to meet up with fellow travellers so let us
know if you want to meet up along our route or if we can change ours to see
you!

At this
point we are reminded how many roots we have put down in our daily lives that
need to be dealt with before we can escape for any length of time. Shots and insurance need to be taken care
of. House, car, cat, and services all need
to be dealt with and they don’t always work out easily. As I write this, we still haven’t rented out
our house (6-month lease and furnished are both drawbacks) and are living in a
kind of flux as half of our belongings are in storage. When we returned last time, we thought we’d
purge so many of our possessions as we’d lived without them just fine for a
year. Having a basement with shelving
does mean that ones fills it up with stuff that you hope will be of some use in
the distant future. It’s a good thing I’m
on leave as dealing with all of this and working at the same time would suck!
Anyway,
please let us know if you’re travelling near us and we’ll make an effort to
keep the blog in better shape this time around.
