Thanks for checking out our blog! We are currently in Indonesia.

When we left for Mexico in July of 2011, we had no idea our travels would turn in to so much more! Originally, we decided to try travelling for six months and if it did not work out, we'd go home. We have found that by staying in one place for a longer time, say one month, gives us the opportunity to not only experience the neighborhood, but to learn the histories of places we visit and the rhythm of life.

We lived in four cities in Mexico in seven months before driving into Central America. We lived in five countries and six cities/towns in Central America.We would have kept going into South America if not for two things - the Darian Gap and our trusty, broken Saturn.

Once back in Mexico, we stayed an additional six months in three different cities. In total, we drove over 30,000 miles in Mexico and Central America.

Now the journey begins in Southeast Asia! Our plan, again, is to try it for six months, but you know how that goes! So far we have been in Southeast Asia for two months.
