Looks like it's going to take 2 full weeks, 14 days, to make Montreal. Guess I'm not the road warrior I thought I was, but I just can't imagine pushing that hard for that long. Also, I guess I can't just drop in on my Mom, who I haven't seen in nearly 10 years, for a [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Today is Fiona's second day of first grade. We homeschool through the Horizon Charter school program. Since we're still traveling and are in Surrey British Columbia right now, you may wonder how this is working.
Well, right now we're all sitting in a Wired Monk coffee shop in Surrey. We walked here from the place we're staying [...]

We loved house sitting in British Columbia for Caitlyn. It's been fun and we appreciate the trust she and Ian put in us in taking care of their home and dog. When they came home for one day before the next leg of their trip and then took Brodie their dog with them he seemed to [...]

The Client Communication Clinic we hosted in Vancouver last Friday was great! We finally met Renee Shupe, The Redhead VA, in person. We also met an aspiring virtual assistant and are meeting her again Wednesday while we're still in the Vancouver area.
We will be in the Vancouver area until August 23rd at least. We'd love to meet other [...]

We've been in Canada less than 6 hours and I already think I want to stay. It's perfect weather. The sun is shining and there's a nice breeze. The windows are open! We had a nice walk around the neighborhood while our hosts familiarized us with places within walking distance. We can walk to the grocery [...]

So we finally arrived yesterday evening at Brad and Kristy's house. We had great salmon for dinner and our friend from Triiibes Rex came over from Everett to visit. Joel played a little music and then we got a great night's sleep.
By the way, the rest stops in Washington are great! You can get free coffee [...]

It's almost 10:30 pm Wednesday night and none of us can wait! The van's packed, Fiona's in a hurry to get to Canada, and we'll be leaving in a few minutes. Tomorrow we'll arrive in Washington and stay 4 days there. Then - [...]

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.
