Since Saturday afternoon, we’ve been camped along the Indian River in Titusville, Florida – right off Highway US 1. We’ve been enjoying a completely awesome nomadic rendezvous with Sean Welsh and Louise Hornor of Our Odyssey as temporary neighbors (it’s our first in person meeting after years of cyber stalking each other around the country.)

Camp Nomadia – A Burning Man Theme Camp for Nomads, Vagabonds & Travelers
As many of you know, we journey to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert every year to participate in Burning Man. What Is Burning Man: Once a year, tens of thousands of participants gather in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert to create Black Rock City, dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance.

Travelogue: Hemet, CA to St. Louis
Time Period: Oct 25 – Dec 31, 2009 Miles Driven: 2125 With plans to spend the holidays with family in the St. Louis area, we looked ahead to doing a mid-country run very much similar to the path we took earlier in the year. We decided to sign on to workamp at Amazon’s distribution center in […]
Digital Fasting
One of the things that worried us most about taking the workamping gig at Amazon’s distribution center in Kansas was their strict no cell phone policy. That would mean for 12 hours a day for a month, we would have no contact with the outside world – a very weird concept for us digital nomads. […]
