How to Live your Life to travel the World

How to Live your Life to travel the World

As people who love to travel for extended periods, Dave and I are always asked how we manage to take so much time off from work to see the world. The second question we always get is how do we afford it? People tend to think that we live our lives with no vision of the future and no equity what-so-ever just spending our money until it runs out. Others tend to think that we are independently wealthy. As a matter a fact neither is true.

Dave has always threatened that he would bungee jump in Victoria Falls if we ever made it there. Unfortunately, I thought that I would never have to [...]

What it is like to Cycle in Ethiopia on the Tour d’Afrique

Life here so far in the TDA becomes a bit surreal to say the least. Days no longer have names, just distances and vague directions.
This will give you an idea of what we have to go through.

We had a super turn out at Mountain Equipment Co-op downtown Toronto last night.  We want to put a big thanks out to Nani for organizing it and inviting so many people.  It wouldn’t have been the same success without him. It was their most successful event to date, and we will be putting on [...]
