Happy New Year from Langkawi, Malaysia!

For the last three weeks we have been house sitting with a large garden to water, two cats to play with and a car to drive to all the best beaches on the island. Want to try housesitting? I can highly recommend two books on house sitting, Break Free: The Ultimate Guide to Housesitting and How to Become a Housesitter and See the World. While sitting in the garden, we created many new movies to share about our recent trips to Guam and Hawaii, and our three months of travels in India a year ago.

Our Inspiration Travel Writing Contest is now open. Enter by February 14 with your "Place of Inspiration." First prize is now $1,000usd. Share your story! We are continuing to publish the Gratitude Contest entries and expect to announce the winners the end of January.

We are off to Koh Lipe, Thailand where five years ago on January 18, 2009 we got engaged underwater! George remembers me saying as we left, "I wonder if we come back in five years what our life will be like then!" I cannot wait to see what Koh Lipe is like now!

Enjoy our article on seven years of celebrating New Years Eve together!

We wish you a wonderful 2014 filled with success, adventure and happiness!

Book Review From Don't Stop Living:

It's also an immaculate love story within, including private e-mail messages the couple sent each other to begin with, the decision to take 11 months out to see the world together, the falling in love on the road story...

For me, the best thing about Traveling in Sin is the way it's written. It's a passionate, enthusiastic, real-life travel memoir. The joint authorship gives it that gender splitting edge. They are telling their travel story the way it is, the way any traveller should.

Whether you're a seasoned backpacker, a high end traveller, a holiday maker or someone who just loves a real life travel and love story, get downloading this book! It will make a great read on your next journey and you may be suitably inspired.

Our Memoir is available: Traveling in Sin

We left last July for Indonesia for this one year journey and five years ago in July for our first one year sabbatical! Read our memoir, Traveling in Sin, to learn how we met online, and chose to meander from Indonesia to Mongolia. Along the way, I lost over fifty pounds and we got engaged underwater. This book is NOT a collection of blog posts. We have never published this story before! Enjoy all the colorful characters we met and the tears and triumphs of a Peace Corps Worker and a Princess (cruises employee) finding their way together in Asia.
