A Mullet and Shopping for Vintage Clothing Online

I got a new haircut! It has been almost a year since I had gotten a haircut. I had not planned it that way, just Covid and then I never got around to it. However, I have been intrigued with the “modern mullet” and I finally I decided to just go for it. I am…

Not a Good Time to Be a Nomad

So this is a pretty bad time to be a nomad. The husband and I have had to deal with this whole Covid-19 thing while we are basically homeless. We have recently been taking a break from travel, spending the last six months in Guadalajara, Mexico. We had been switching from Airbnb to Airbnb, seeing…

When we first left on this around the world adventure over four years ago the husband had the idea that we would be “backpackers,” and never need to check our luggage.
