When Kimberly first mentioned the Gibbon Experience (www.gibbonexperience.org) as we were researching Laos, I was a bit wary because the cost – at about $100 per person per day – was uncharacteristically steep for the region and completely unplanned for in our initial budget. However, a visit to their website as well as universally glowing reviews on TripAdvisor quickly turned me around as it was clear that … Continue reading Laos: The Gibbon Experience
Hola! Hope all is well in your world! I have to start this post by saying #1, it’s not one of my usual posts. It’s work related. Yes “work.” Before I dive into that, I would like to take a moment to talk about something I’m super passionate about. I’ll start this section of my blog with a quote I overheard that really resonated with … Continue reading boom
Hi everyone! We just got to Laos today and have a jungle trek/zip-lining/tree house adventure planned starting tomorrow and will be MIA for the next couple of days, meaning no WI-FI what-so-ever. So I wanted to go ahead and tell you about the rest of our time in Thailand before we get disconnected from the world for a little bit ;). I will lay this … Continue reading Thailand: Chiang Mai, Pai, and Chiang Rai
Hi from Pai (pronounced pie so it rhymes 😉 )! We have officially been in Thailand for 2 weeks and 1 day today. I have so much to share, but for this post, I will divide up the info based on the cities we’ve been to during the first week-ish of our time here. Bangkok: We arrived in Bangkok late and went straight to our … Continue reading Thailand: Bangkok, Pattaya, and Sukhothai
Hello friends! I’m just going to jump right by wishing every daddy out there a Happy Father’s Day! ESPECIALLY my Jaisen and my Daddy. 🙂 In a nutshell, Jaisen’s birthday is June 18th (Gemini) and fell on Saturday….the day before Father’s Day, June 19th. Every year for Jaisen’s birthday, he wants to do one thing and one thing only. Go fishing at the beach. That … Continue reading just so
Hi everyone! I’ve got a special treat for you today. The Hoch picked the song, compiled, and edited this video from our weekend in Japan. He did a pretty good job! I hope you enjoy it! We are still swimming in 90+ degree weather here, but will hopefully post an update on our whereabouts within the next week! Also on a heavier note, I wanted … Continue reading Japan Video
Saludos desde Colombia! Hola everyone! It’s been a month since my last post and I don’t know where the time went… But needless to say, I am currently in Colombia South America staying with my Dad and immersing myself in the Colombian culture! My Dad has been living in Colombia for almost two years. This is my third time in Colombia. My dad used to live in the … Continue reading Colombia
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you’ve had a good week! The Hoch and I are still in Bangkok and man it is hot here! This will definitely take some time for us to adjust to. Yesterday we walked around in a constant state of sweatiness and everyone else doesn’t even seem bothered by it! What is their secret!?! Anyways, since my South Korea – Part 1 post … Continue reading South Korea – Part 2
Hi everyone! The real backpacking has begun! We’ve just arrived in Bangkok and are getting our bearings/figuring out a game plan. I plan to post South Korea Part 2 later this week, but in the meantime, I wanted to go ahead and post a little video that I promised in this San Fran post. It is our first one, so bear with me as we learn … Continue reading San Fran Video
Hey friends! Hope this post finds you well. I also hope everyone is keeping up with Kimberly’s posts. I get so anxious when she posts because I’m never in a position to read them right away. I like to be in solitude and take my time with them. When I read her posts, I read them in her voice. I can’t help it. She made me … Continue reading Party of 3
