Well, it's the start of a new adventure! Tara and I have spent the last three years living and teaching in New York City and we are ready for a change of location, change of weather, and change of pace. We are leaving behind the stresses of the big city to seek out white-sand beaches, sunshine, new cultures and (most importantly) hammocks! We've cashed out our retirement accounts and stocked up on sunscreen (SPF 90-right Tara?), bugspray, first-aid supplies (thank you, mom and dad!), and flip-flops. We are now ready to hit the road!
We start in Cancun, Mexico and will spend our first week or so at Isla Mujeres. From there we are heading generally west through the Yucatan Peninsula, making a few stops to see some Mayan ruins, some street festivals, and other sights as we go. We will then head into Guatemala to see Tikal, and on to Lake Atitlan where we will be taking Spanish classes. After that, we hope to continue heading south, but who knows where?!?!
Check in here to see where we are and to hear about our antics abroad!
Safe travels, guys! Looking forward to hearing all about it!
