In previous posts, I have mentioned some ridiculous and hilarious English translations from all around Asia. These terrible translations are affectionately called “Engrish”, and there is even an entire website devoted to funny translations from Asia. (Why are they always from Asia? Get with the program, Asia!!!!). I am going to keep writing to a […]
Sharon and I are currently on a bus from Daegu to Busan, South Korea – however, as you’re reading this we are eating sushi and udon in Japan. This post is a quick update on our itinerary and plans for the rest of the year.
I previously wrote a “Top 10 Unexpected Changes Due to Long Term Travel“, and now that we’ve settled down in Korea, there have been a whole slew of new additions to the list. Without further ado I now present to you my top 10 unexpected personal changes as a result of quitting my job and […]
If this were a gossip blog, we would have no readers. The most commonly asked question regarding our trip is “are they getting sick of each other yet?” This may have been a tough question to answer if we were a dramatic couple, but for gossip’s sake we are not. Therefore I am going to simplify […]

Greetings from the 3rd country on our trip, Vietnam. We are currently in Hanoi, staying at possibly the nicest hostel we’ve stayed during our trip, The Hanoi Guesthouse. I’d like to use this post to give an update of our itinerary, as our plans continue to change. We left China with one “crazy week” of […]
Sharon and I had the great privilege of speaking with Mike Cassidy, a reporter from the San Jose Mercury News, to discuss our new Life After Cube lifestyle and goals for the trip. On Saturday, his article was published in the Merc, “Unemployed and on the Adventure of a Lifetime”. If you’ve found our site from the San […]
Greetings from a somewhat frightening bus bound for Guangzhou, China. The bus driver seems to have a tendency to honk violently at people on their mopeds while he nearly runs them over.
