ThePlanetD is going through a major overhaul and we need your help. Our designer has been asking us some tough questions about the focus of our travel blog and while we think we know why people are stopping by to read about our adventures, we thought that we had better ask you! Who knows why they read our stuff better than the person reading it?

    • That is awesome. Thanks Gillian. that helps us a lot. We’ve been wondering if people want to hear about our story or if we shared too much in the past. We love talking about our experiences, so we’ll make sure to focus on that more.

    • KT! I love that you said that. That is exactly what we hope to accomplish here. I know that when we were lost and confused about what we wanted out of life, I read a lot of books and people’s stories and I felt like “if they could do it so could I” We want to show everyone that hey, if we can do it anyone can too. I can’t wait to hear about your adventures too.

    Andy Gree October 16, 2012 at 11:57 am Reply
    • Thanks Andy, I can’t tell you how much that means to us. When we were sending some notes to our designer, we stated that inspring people to dream is what we hope to accomplish. Our travels started out with a dream and now we are living that dream. We never thought that it was possible.

    • Thanks so much Antoinette. That means a lot to us. Because we really do have a lot of fun. We’re so happy to be able to do this and to be able to do it together is incredible. WE spent so many years seeing very little of each other because of our jobs, that it’s amazing to be able to work and travel as a couple. I’m so proud of Dave’s photography, whenever I write an article I always tell him to give me more photos, more photos!
