(2 May 2023) We have business cards now. Oooooh, FANcy, LOL. They’re very cool and include some blank space on the back for notes which is a thing I would have hoped for but probably not thought of. 

I’m super excited to get going; have I mentioned that yet? We’re 3 weeks from officially downsizing – moving out of our 3 bedroom house on 5 acres and into a tiny little studio in Redmond. From there we’ve got about 6 months to complete the downsizing into a fully nomadic lifestyle. 6 months from getting on a plane and leaving our old life behind. Like, a couple weeks away from actually buying tickets. 

I also got more serious about mapping out the travel schedule to get a better grip on the search for accommodations. Aside from the first stop in Panama City, everything is a placeholder. We won’t be traveling on the 1st of every month and we won’t be staying a calendar month in each location but it will be closer to that than not:
