Time’s up; go explore

Rewind: 4 years ago: Craig and I have conversations that edge on seriousness over leaving our professions and starting something new.

Rewind: 2 years ago: We land in Luang Prabang, Laos and think, Woah, this may be the place.

Rewind: 1 year ago: Intentions for renewing contracts at our teaching jobs are handed out; we check NO THANKS and bite our nails for months to come.

Rewind: 4 months ago: Summer “vacation” begins and reality sets in a BIG way as to the upcoming move and life shift.

Play: today: With packed bags and our last tearful good-byes, we set off on our flight to Asia, ready to do this thing, ready to explore.
