Reflecting on the last 3 Januarys since I have become a nomad. From Guatemala to Peru to Hong Kong, it has been an adventure filled with joy and challenges and awe and overwhelm and I wouldn’t change a single experience.

It’s been a year since I published my first blog post. Since then I have travelled through 3 countries in South America, made a quick trip to Greece, spent some time in Canada and moved to Hong Kong for a year. I have also looked back and reflected on my time in Kenya and doing to Camino de Santiago. To everyone who has subscribed to my little blog, thank you. I will continue to share my journey.
Life in Hong Kong means learning to go with the flow but also the joy discovering there are so many free things to do. Festivals and beach days and monasteries and teaching struggles are all part of my new life here in Hong Kong.
Today marks 25 days in Hong Kong and I guess I live here now. Life in Hong Kong has been a roller coaster but I am loving it. I’m here teaching at a learning...
Camino de Santiago – remembering all the good. Overcoming the physical challenges, making new friends and enjoying the solitude, all of the beautiful countryside and old churches. The Camino de Santiago will always be a favorite travel memory and a journey that taught me more than I expected.
The Camino de Santiago – one of my favorite travel and life memories. A long walk in Spain – alone but never lonely. Beautiful countryside, friendly locals, challenging life lessons and the most amazing sunsets. Learning to appreciate the simplicity of putting one foot in front of the other, day after day.
Travelling from Peru to Bolivia and learning lessons along the way. Overnight buses, challenging border crossing and delightful surprises in Copacabana.
Visiting Machu Picchu was something I have dreamed about for a long time. It was absolutely wonderful. Some of the realities were not what I expected. And some of the surprises exceeded my expectations. Travel is like that sometimes… unexpected and wonderful.
I loved living in Cusco, Peru for 3 months. Discovering all of the local spots and going on big ‘tourist’ adventures – the best of both worlds. Well-dressed dogs, crowded buses, amazing street food and unusual business practices – I enjoyed it all.
