We are looking for an article about your act of freedom-a place you chose or that allows you to feel free. Be inspired by Sara Barielles' song, Brave, and share "What you want to say." We want to "See you Be Brave...and start speaking up!" Where are you most able to be your true self? In Nellie Bennett's Only in Spain, she watches a flamenco dancer and shares wanting "to attack my life with that passion, to live with her joy and her devotion to her art... I'd wanted to feel and smell and taste life, and live like that dancer on the stage in Seville, risking that triple turn, never sure she wouldn't spin right off the stage." Your place of freedom might be far across the globe or in your own backyard.

Memoir is available: Traveling in Sin

Traveling in Sin is now available in three paperback editions! It turns out most books have very few color photos as they are quite expensive! So we now have FOUR OPTIONS: Kindle e-book with color photos, a paperback with color photos, a paperback with black and white photos and a paperback with no photos. See them all on Amazon! click here

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.
