Travelogue: Austin, Gonzales & New Braunfels
Time frame: March 22 – May 26 Miles Driven: 139 After SXSW wrapped up, we entered into an intentionally still time. We knew we needed focused time to concentrate on giving birth to our first iPhone application which became State Lines. This is probably the least amount of miles driven in any such Travelogue we’ve […]
Like Slowly Pulling a Bandage Off
May I take a moment and share with you something that is not easy about our traveling lifestyle? A nomad must get proficient at the art of saying good-bye – for you are always arriving and soon after leaving. Unless one can become detached emotionally enough, it’s going to tug at heartstrings. For me, I […]
Camera Review: Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1
For literally years now, I have been craving a more capable camera. I’ve managed to do some amazing and artistic things with small but advanced pocket cameras like the Canon SX110IS that we relied on throughout most of 2009, but I continuously found myself pushing the edges of what small cameras were capable of – […]

Nomadic Itch
While our nomadic spirit is constant, our desire to be in actual motion waxes and wans. We go through periods of constant motion, a new place every night or two. And then we crave stillness to absorb what is around us and concentrate on momentum in other areas of our lives. And when the nomad […]
Think Inside the Box (on wheels)
Breaking free from the templates of conventional living usually involves tradeoffs. In particular, pursuing a life of travel often comes with compromise. While living without a fixed address has many advantages, perpetually living on the road can be draining. For a taste of location independent freedom, you end up trading away the security of a […]
