Thanks Carol for stopping by and sharing such a nice and kind comment. One of the reason we decided to launch our blog in 2018 was to help us connect with people living a nomadic life so I’m glad we can meet & connect virtually!

Thank you for showing the chronological list of places you have explored thus far. You get so much pleasure exploring the world while saving money. Furthermore, you work out routinely and eat delicious, beautiful and healthy food. I admire that. I love reading your articles. If you have time, would you please write up your Bali and Da Nang trips. Thank you.
