We'd love to spend the month of April house sitting somewhere in the south. For us, that means the Virginias or Carolinas, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky. We're flexible, so other states aren't out of the question, and the end of March is possible, and the April thing is pretty open-ended too.
We also have this dream of spending [...]

We are currently house sitting for friends in Roseville California while they are backpacking in Italy. We're one week in to our two-week house sitting job here and loving it.
The home owners gave us permission to take some photos and post them here. As all of you who were worried about Fiona having a bed and [...]

You may wonder what it's been like packing up the van and taking our six-year old to Canada and back. There were those of you who were worried about how Fiona would handle it. Would she have friends to play with? Would she have a bed to sleep in? How would she continue doing her school [...]

Sara is a virtual assistant who founded the Northern California Virtual Assistants Meetup Group. We've been able to get to know Sara quite well over the last year or two. She recently sent us a couple of emails that she has agreed to let us share as a guest post.
Hi Sue & Joel,

Looking back over my 46 years of life (I'm not afraid of my age), I think now perhaps there's always been a part of me that wanted to get up and go - travel.
As I child the only vacation I remember our family taking was driving to the Grand Canyon. Many times dad just took mom [...]

This morning we left Arlington Washington and drove down to Portland Oregon. We stopped in Olympia, Washington's capital, and at the Farmer's Market bought breakfast - great fresh fruit: peaches, apples, plums. We also bought lunch - cucumbers, grape tomatoes and a great loaf of garlic and rosemary French bread.
Upon arriving in Portland at 3 [...]

We're wrapping up here in Surrey British Columbia today and heading back into Washington. We're sitting here in Canada knowing we're going to miss it as soon as we cross the border.
Right now we're at the Wired Monk Coffee Shop wrapping up some web work before we go make our lunch and then finish packing the [...]

This morning we'll be visiting with new friends as we walk in the neighborhood taking in scenery and visiting. This afternoon we reconnect with Kathy, an aspiring virtual assistant who attended the Client Communication Clinic last Friday. We'll be meeting her at a Waves Coffee Shop at 2:30 in North Vancouver on Lynn Valley Road. I [...]

Yes, we are the type of people who decide on a whim to hop into the van and take a drive - for the next 24 hours!
In early May 2007 just after we bought our 2005 Kia Sedona van, we decided to drive up into Oregon - just so I could say I'd been there since [...]

Vicarious Nomads
You may not be in a position to drop everything and travel the world. (We might not either, but we're talking about you right now.) If you'd like to participate vicariously, your financial support of this adventure will help us to document it, and hopefully show that even today (perhaps especially today) a family can choose where and how to live.
We're not expensive folks. Even the smallest amount will make a very real difference.
