I'm Leaving my Husband ...On an Eight Week Hiatus! So I've gone and done it. I've set off a chain of events that end with me finally walking the Camino de Santiago. I've been granted nine weeks leave from my current job after requesting off to go volunteer in Guatemala. It was to be a graduation present to myself and in all honesty I thought that they would just ask me to put in my two weeks and resign. However, they were more than happy to give me the time off and so I decided that I would stay at my current job through the summer and sometime in September start to look for jobs within my particular field of study. Some how or another, I have come full circle and am now off to a ... read more

A lot of unknowns surround our lives currently and so we have decided that ... read more

What it is to be Human After lurking around on Travel Blog for years, I have come to realize that I love reading blogs with colorful introductions to the adventurers whose lives I am hacking through by means of reading their blogs. With this being said, how about a little introduction blog for the first go around? For the purpose of time and avoiding exhausting myself, we will begin mid-life in a little "city" called Lancaster in the state of Pennsylvania. I moved out to Lancaster after graduating High School when I was 18 to attend Millersville University. Not a crazy adventure in and of itself as it is only one hour away from where I grew up, but the first of many to come nonetheless. While it is most common for many young people of ... read more
