Now that my father is on the mend, we start to look to what the remainder of our summer will look like, and what our routing will be to get to Burning Man. We don’t stress much about schedules, because things always seem to line up when they need to – as such as our […]
Oliver Travel Trailer (July 2008 - May 2011)
Travelogue: Austin, St. Louis & Florida
Time frame: May 27 — July 6 Miles Driven: 2256 After a couple months of being still in central Texas with a lot of social time, it was time to get back into motion. Our impending plans seemed to be calling us towards heading to St. Louis for Gateway Burn, and then traveling westward through […]
Blogging for Joy
Look around our site, Technomadia.com, and you’ll see very little evidence of monetizing our blog. There’s a reason for that – we never set a goal of blogging for dollars. Many folks adopting mobile lifestyles do plan to utilize their blogs as a source of income to fund their travels by affiliate sales, ads, sponsorships […]
Happy Father’s Day
Today, in honor of Father’s Day – Gizmodo is running a feature on dad’s influence on our tech obsessions. I thought it might be appropriate to share a bit about my father, as I owe a lot of my tech and location independent tendencies to him. My father grew up a Navy brat – always […]
Being Where We Need to Be
One of the things that we designed our full time traveling lifestyle to accommodate for was being where we need to be. Family and loved ones are extremely important to us. And we recognized that as our parents and grandparents age, there is likely to be more need for us to be there. And such […]

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 […]
