okay, everyone!
get ready
i'm getting ready
for another adventure

i got a new van, a new haircut, and a new bike, tent, camping stove, etc...
i'm movin into my new house.
on wheels
a rolling turtle.

coming to your town
unless i don't know where you live,
in which case you should let me know,
and i'll add you to the itinerary.

start checking in here every week because i'm gonna be doing my best to document this voyage

this is what i would have done right when i got back from europe almost a year ago, if i had not had very large credit card bills, and instead had a van.
well, now i have positive account balance, and my very own iron monstrosity (a term of endearment that comes from the good ole days)
for the purpose of this trip is to see all of my loved ones as well as lovable unknown ones, and find a place to live.

a good friend once told me (when i was on my way to europe) that most people don't move out of their house when they go on vacation.
well, i suppose anyone who's known me for at least an hour, knows that i do not fit into the category of "most people"

most people's first vehicle is not a 15 passenger van that they convert into their home
most people don't move without knowing where they're moving to
most people....
i could probably write 50 of these but i might alienate myself.
so we'll just conclude that i love unconventional travel. and after travelling, i miss people, and i want to see them...
see them all...
see them all now...
so here i go
i also look forward to finding a home, which will surely be an unconventional home, you probably could have guessed.
by the end of this coming fall, i will have found that home, and some kind of unconventional job, and begin to dream of the garden i will plant in the spring, and start to do all the things you can do when you stay somewhere, and that will be another adventure all in itself, until then
the open road!
see you soon!
