Month Seventy-Eight started in the U.S. with some chilled family time in Colorado and ended with traveling in Colombia – big life contrasts, like usual. The first week of the month saw us housesitting and looking after two dogs in a quiet suburb of Denver, followed by another six nights staying with family in Aurora […] Read more…
Month Seventy-Seven started with work and ended with road-tripping and visiting family in three states. I still had just over a week left of working Haunt O’Ween and it was a stressful time, where I had multiple call-outs to deal with, no days off, and the highest customer numbers yet. I was relieved when it […] Read more…
Month Seventy-Five and Seventy-Six were busy, first with travel then with work as I worked two back-to-back events that were both exhausting and rewarding. I started the month on Paros, where I had one last look around this beautiful island before catching a ferry to Crete – a place I have wanted to visit for […] Read more…
Month Seventy Four was a travel-filled month, just how I like it! I started the month in Michigan where I explored the lighthouses, islands, cute towns, and beaches of the gorgeous Upper Peninsula for a week – and damn, that place is beautiful! Next, we headed down into Wisconsin and spent five wonderful days in […] Read more…
Month Seventy-Three was a busy one! We traveled through eight states, saw some cool stuff, had lots of trouble with our van fleet, and worked at a BBQ Festival in Kansas City. I spent the first five days of the month still housesitting and looking after sweet Bear the dog in Boulder. We did a […] Read more…

But just because it was quiet on the travel-front, doesn’t mean it wasn’t a great month. As I am not going to be in Colorado for […] Read more…
I’ve been so busy the last couple of months that I didn’t have a chance to do my month seventy recap – so here is what I have been up to for the last two months. We started month seventy with five days in Silverthorne where Toby and I were both working as COVID testers. […] Read more…
Month Sixty-Nine was a month of moving around in Colorado for Toby’s work, working lots, and enjoying the winter weather. I started the month in the mountain town of Silverthorne, where Toby was working as a COVID tester, before moving onto Cañon City where I worked a shift with Toby, and explored the town. After […] Read more…
Month Sixty-Eight was a quieter month on the travel front, spent mostly in New Zealand before I finally returned to the U.S. at the end of the month. I spent the first four days of the month in Auckland, visiting the Maritime Museum, swimming at Mission Bay beach, and doing a Trivia night with friends, […] Read more…
Month Sixty-Seven was not as travel heavy as the previous month, but I still had a busy one and moved around a lot. I started the month in Papamoa at my Mum’s, where I got some last-minute presents, watched Christmas movies, decorated the Christmas tree, and made a whole lot of Christmas cookies. On Christmas […] Read more…
