We finally made it to the mountains to ski which is a BIG deal this winter! Although you get to ultimately choose your travel contracts, there is always something you have to compromise on. Like many things, when picking a contract there are three big things to consider – pay, location, and quality of job…

We Went to Hollywood!
We finally made it to Los Angeles for a weekend trip! We have lived in California on and off for the last 3 years so it’s hard to believe it took us this long to get to LA. Although neither of us are film or celebrity buffs we decided to start with a trip to…
First Month in Our New Home
It’s hard to believe but it has almost been a month since we arrived in Pismo Beach and started working our newest travel contracts! Our drive from Pennsylvania was much less leisurely than our last cross country trip and we made it to the California coast in 6 days. Somehow we managed to squeeze 41+…
Mexico Trip Part 2: Oaxaca City
After 5 days on the Pacific coast in Puerto Escondido we were reluctant to leave the beach but excited to explore the city of Oaxaca (pronounced waa-haa-kah). The area has a rich history of indigenous people with settlements of Zapotec and Mixtec peoples near the modern city of Oaxaca. The city is known for its…
Mexico: Puerto Escondido
After putting our international travel plans on hold during the pandemic we decided to get back on the travel train and head to Mexico for a trip! Similar to the United States, Mexico is divided into 31 states and the capital, Mexico City. While I worked a bit in PA Patrick worked diligently to plan…
Rocky Mountain National Park
Our final stops on our CA to PA road trip were Loveland, CO and Rocky Mountain National Park. After almost 2 weeks of camping, it was finally time to head indoors! Erin and I rented a tiny home on Airbnb in Loveland CO for 3 nights. The first thing we checked out was the shower!…
Have You Heard of Lassen National Park?
Although many of you probably have not heard of it, Lassen Volcanic National Park was a top priority stop for us on our drive from CA to PA. Out of 9 national parks in California Lassen was the only park we had not visited. Lassen National Park is located in North Eastern California and Lassen…
Time to Leave CA… What’s Next for Us?!
Our current contracts end next week and that means we will be on the road again! This was our longest contract to date at 8.5 months. Somehow we still had a few things on our weekend exploration “to do list” so we have spent the last few weeks tackling them. Over Memorial Day weekend we…
Park City, Utah
We did it.. We took the leap and finally got back on a plane for the first time since the pandemic started. About a year ago we booked a ski trip with the hope it would be possible in 2021. Although it ended up being directly in the middle of lots of chaos, we decided…
We Are Back!
Happy New Year!! We are starting off the year with a resolution to get back to our weekly blog posts! Clearly we have been slacking…. But we are back and ready to share more adventures. Overall we have been laying low over the last few months for the obvious COVID reasons, but we have been…
