15 years.. just.. wow. I can hardly believe that is how long it’s been since I pulled out of the driveway of my comfortable beachside home in a super tiny T@b travel trailer with this guy I had met on a Prius forum. We registered the domain name of Technomadia.com just days before we headed […]
Retrospective: 2020 & 2021 – Setting a Foundation for the Future
I don’t have to describe the bigger challenges of the past couple of years. We’ve all gone through them. For us, it meant a more homebased life living aboard Y-Not in Sanford. Overall, despite the craziness of the world at large – we’ve been incredibly fortunate. All our years on the road gave us the […]
Retrospective: 2019 – Nomadic Balance
After so many lessons on the road over the years, I’d say 2019 was a year of tremendous balance. It wasn’t without obstacles. But we navigated them without overwhelm thanks to the skillsets we had built already. We focused on the important things. We evacuated, again, for another major hurricane – but it thankfully turned […]
Retrospective: 2018 – Correcting the Course
Our first year of boat ownership was definitely not without a huge learning curve. And despite the challenges, we were loving it. At the beginning of 2018, it was time to get back to our intentions – continue our Great Loop and integrate in part of the year with RVing. Fresh out of the boat […]
Retrospective: 2017 – Gratitude & Humility
After 10 years on the road in various RVs, we decided to switch it up by getting a boat in 2017. While we had established ourselves as ‘experts’ in the RV space, we were now Strangers in a Strange Land.. err.. water. We were complete newbies having gone from an inflatable kayak to a 47′ […]
Retrospective: 2016 – Living on NST
A Nomad, much like a Wizard, arrives precisely when they are meant to. They are never late, nor are they early. 2016 was a pretty well darn balanced year for us, after the tumultuous year prior. We had successfully reset, and enjoyed a year of discovery by RV and multiple alternate adventures by cruise ship […]
Retrospective: 2015 – Retreat, Set Boundaries
For all the awesome that 2014 was in terms of productivity, adventure and community – we paid for it in spades in 2015. We came into the year on a high. We were creating things, things that mattered and were being well received. By spring time Xscapers was launched to the world, and our role […]
Retrospective: 2014 – It Takes a Village
You know in your head, how you can have two stories – and not realize they are deeply intertwined until you go to write them? When I was rough sketching this series out, 2014 was going to be about launching things – but I was struggling to find the lesson. The real lesson wouldn’t come […]
Retrospective: 2013 – Joy Your Day
Not gonna lie, 2013 was a hard year. The first part spent with my father on hospice, and then his passing and all the logistics that come with that. I lost not only my dad, but a best friend. And a business partner of nearly 20 years. My mentor. I had to put the emotions […]
Retrospective: 2012 – The Important Things
2012 started with the news that my father’s cancer had come back, and the count down was on for his last days with us. Our consciously constructed nomadic life allowed us to shift our focus to what mattered. We based our time in Florida to be near him most of the year, help with his […]
