CURRENT MISSION

To live, laught, be happy, sail around the world and make babies some day

ABOUT ME

We were married in May of '09 and sold everything to travel in Latin America including Mexico, Central and South America. We traveled for 26 months. While in Central America we volunteered in Granada Nicaraga running a kids summer school, worked and lived in Costa Rica running a hostel and teaching English, but the best part is meeting other travelers,soaking up the sun and surfing whenever possible and basically just learning about these strange latin worlds.

Panama is our favorite country and where we want to retire some day sooner than later. We sailed from Panama to Colombia on an epic journey in which are mast broke 72 miles from land.

We rented a beach house in Ecuador for a month and surfed and relaxed. We rowed 10 hours down the Amazon in a 20 foot canoe we bought off some locals then spent 4 days on a rusty bucket cargo/transport boat in order to get from Ecuador to Peru through the Amazon.

We hiked the Inca Trail and went to Machu Picchu. A tour worth the money and very recommended. Now after two years plus of traveling we are ready to return home see some family and friends and prepare for our next great adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Communication is key. Without it we will get no where, understand less, and never grow together.
