Fighting Through Sickness In South Africa
This week was a little bit miserable for me after getting sick and having it linger for the entire week. We definitely were not able to maximize our first week in South Africa, but we did get some activity in. The Knysna waterfront was our first stop (day 255), followed by the Knysna Heads and…
Travel From Sri Lanka To South Africa
This week was jam packed with travel activity, and unexpected planning. The week started quietly as we ran out the clock on our time in Colombo (days 249 and 250). War in the middle east impacted our travel (day 251), but we adjusted and still managed to travel from Sri Lanka to South Africa. Part…
From Colombo to Galle Sri Lanka – Fort and Jungle Beach Day Trip

Planning For The Finale In Europe
This week was mostly dedicated to determining our plan for the final locations of our trip. That was always planned to be a finale in Europe, but we struggle with even wanting to go to Europe (day 242). Eventually we get around to making some decisions and booking the final pieces of our travel year…
Traveling From Thailand to Sri Lanka
This week we are traveling from Thailand to Sri Lanka. We wrap up our time in our incredible Airbnb, I lose access to the gym I love, and we’re leaving behind the best food we’ve had all year. Sri Lanka ends up being a bit of a shock to the system (days 238-240), and the…
Chiang Mai Sticky Waterfall and Busy Work
The highlight of the week was going to the Chiang Mai sticky waterfall, where we got to experience that natural phenomenon and meet a new friend (day 231). Throughout the week we have been taking in the super bowl and the olympics, and working a lot on blog migrations (day 227). We ran into some…

Chiang Mai Thailand – A Week In Review
This week was low on activity, mainly because I got sick with a mild cold that progresses through the week. Later in the week though I was feeling better, and we took a guided bike tour of the old city (day 217 below). I also joined a great gym (day 213 immediately below), and we…
Traveling From Vietnam To Thailand
We had a busy week of activity, and anchoring that activity was traveling from Vietnam to Thailand. However, there were a few other noteworthy events this week. You can see our plans for our upcoming South Africa leg getting blown up, and then maybe put back on the table in Day 206 below. There is…
