One more day of vacay…
Well, it’s hard to believe it, but we are just over 24 hours away from the end of our month-long holiday away. Our reasoning for taking time away was initially to escape the winter rains and greys that we had experienced the previous couple of years in Orvieto. Ironically, this year had a rather late…

Happy New Year to 2024!
It was a beautiful start to 2024 and we are looking forward to how the year unfolds after having a rather amazing 2023! We’ve started our goal-writing as a couple and are working on our individual ones, though I had already started mine back in September, but as with all things they change. So, I’m…

Merry 2023 Christmas Season
Sometimes unexpected changes in plans brings about an even better experience than the one anticipated. Although we would have had a lovely time spending the holidays with my parents in the Bahamas, we would have missed out on family time with my brother, catching up with a few family and friends, and enjoying just a…

Reminders to Appreciate Life…
I’m still coughing…😩 fits of it make me feel as if my entire body is shaking to pieces like an earthquake. Luckily, the body is well put together that, so far, everything seems to be staying in place. Still, my head hurts 😵💫 on occasion and the inability to laugh or sometimes move too much…

Hello from Paradise
My happy place has always been by the ocean. When I started to travel, I learned that there were warm beaches unlike the chillier one of the Oregon Coast, which I still love in many ways. Still, when given a choice, I would prefer a warm beach, blue sea, and golden sand. I’ve seen a…

Traveling….
I’m still alive – a cough lingers in the chest even after almost two weeks, but not suffering. Nothing that a bit of time in the sun can’t cure in a few days. In the meantime, we are in London for a few days. Will try to update on this part of our winter travels…

Seasonal/Annual Illness
Well, it has happened despite my best efforts to Jedi mind-trick or deny its existence. I am sick. I tried my best to positive energy it away and perhaps it is not as bad as past illnesses have been because of this, but there’s no denying it. I. am. sick. I hate being sick. I…

Japan: Days 8.5 to 13
Well, the remaining days in Japan flew by so that I ended up not taking as many photos since we were busy socializing and enjoying our time. I put together a quick montage of images in video format here, so you can have a look at the whole trip in quick images. Enjoy! ~T 🔥🐉♋️

Japan 2023: Days 8.5/13
We are back in Japan for a visit. It’s been just over three years since we left during the early pandemic/shutdown days. When we left, we didn’t quite know what we were doing but the timing seemed right to try to move with the freedom of online work. Turns out we rode the wave well…

Autumn Bash 2023
We love a party – yes, even me, the introvert! Although I tend to prefer smaller group gatherings for catching up with people, I do enjoy bringing people together and seeing what sort of social interactions will arise to give me food for thought. M loves a large party to play host and to flit…
