Hi! Welcome to the Crabby Travelers' travel blog! We are Martha & Tony Dancy and we travel whenever possible. This year we attained our fantasy/goal to break from the norm (boring work-a-day life in the states) and find a way to live & work overseas. Tony took a music gig in Hong Kong recently that has turned out to be a unique, long-term stint. Or so we hope. I did the practical thing and quit my perfectly good job, packed up, sold and/or stored our stuff and joined him here. The log starts in HK & who knows where it will go next....
