Without much of an agenda, we quit our jobs, gave up our apartment, and left behind all but what we could fit into two backpacks in hopes of expanding our minds, broadening our horizons, and possibly creating a new sense of normal for ourselves.

Dinner

Another decent table for another excellent meal that was ridiculously cheap. Im begining to wonder why we left!

I'm having dinner with Zac, Red and Jerome tonight which made me think of checking in on your site. It's truly amazing the things you're getting to see and do. And you're certainly not missing out on a single thing back in the financial world in NYC. Looking forward to hearing all about it in person when you get back. Scott
