This looks familiar...
Gettin' ready to hit the road again!
Let your love flow outward through the universe,
To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity.
Then as you stand or walk,
Sit or lie down,
As long as you are awake,
Strive for this with a one-pointed mind;
Your life will bring heaven to earth.
-Sutta Nipata
So, it's been a whole year since we've not only left word with you all on our old, dear travel blog here, but it's also been a year as well since we returned from one of the best trips of our lives.
It goes without saying then that we're more than grateful and beyond excited to embark upon another fantastic and eye-opening adventure...this time spanning the countries of Southeast Asia we wanted to squeeze into our last trip, but unfortunately didn't have the time to get to.
It's the night before we leave and we've just finished packing our bags--the amazing feat, however, is that we've somehow managed to bring less clothes than we would normally bring for a a few days in New York. If any of you know us well, you know full-well that packing light for us is something worthy of an Olympic medal.
Our first stop: 24 hrs. in Bangkok (no more 'One Night in Bangkok' jokes!) for a little rest and relaxation. Then off to Laos, Vietnam and Hong Kong!
Lots of amazing sights to see. Lots of amazing food to eat. And lots of stories to tell. This is our favorite part of the world we've seen so far and, hopefully, for those of you who are new to our blog, you'll get a glimpse into one of the most magical areas on the planet.
Thanks to all of you for your awesome support and excitement--and for joining us again on our trek halfway across the world.
You'll hear from us again very soon...
It's a wee bit depressing looking at the map below and realizing how little of the world we've actually seen. But we take this as a call-to-action...and let this bold new adventure we're about to embark on be the first step in a long-overdue personal and spiritual enlightenment. Unfortunately, the dogs can't come with... :)

Make way for the s-s-sMother
Hey --- no one gets to blog before The S-s-sMother. I miss you already. It was painful cutting those apron strings, but don't worry --- I've saved them for re-attachment. Enjoy, and don't worry about leaving me alone. In the dark. Crying. LM
