A Chronicle of Amy and Sean's World Travels
Currently Browsing: Miscellany

Rainy weather at Lake Bled…

…means blog improvements.  Check out the new FAQ section at the top.  I’ve also added an email subscription form on the side, so please subscribe if you would like an email each day that the blog is updated (except for those procrastinators who actually prefer to manually check back multiple times in a day, not that I would have ever known anyone like that).  I hope to add something to the blog soon that updates our current destination (currently, Slovenia).  Thanks for reading!


Hola.

Hello, everyone. Just a quick update to say that if you tried to leave us a comment recently, we did not get it. Something went awry without our knowledge and all comments disappeared into cyberspace. We are very sorry and will try to fix this as soon as we can. Too bad that like other foreign languages, we know nothing about html.

We finally figured out our photo process while we had some fast internet in San Sebastian, so we uploaded some photos from Spain. We added a link on the sidebar, or you can find them here:

As you probably figured out, the blog is not real time, and just updated when we get a chance to write posts and have decent internet connections. So we will catch you up with San Sebastian soon…it is a great little beach town. Onwards to Paris tomorrow! (Unfortunately, our friend Matty tells us the internet connection at his apartment is not good).


In the beginning

One day, way back in 2007, or maybe 2008, Sean mentioned to Amy, wouldn’t it be awesome if we quit our jobs and travelled around the world for a year?  Amy replied, of course.  But…who does that?  How can we just quit?  Who can afford that?  What would we do with our cat?  What would we do when we got back?

Then Sean kept forwarding Amy links to blogs of people who did just that.  Who, just, you know, quit.  Who left behind good jobs, sold their houses, put their stuff in storage.  People who seemed perfectly normal.  And not rich.

It remains unclear even now how we crossed over from the idea of wouldn’t this be awesome to ohmygod we leave in eight days.  But here we are.

This is the story of Amy and Sean’s trip around the world.
