Oliver Travel Trailer (July 2008 - May 2011)
A week still
Ever since we left the San Francisco Bay Area on March 22, we’ve been in motion heading towards St. Louis for Mother’s Day, with a stop in Austin to visit with my family. We decided to take just over 6 weeks to make the trip, a very reasonable pace to keep that allows for stopping […]

Technomadic Convergence with Ben Willmore
During our visit to Hemet, California we had a nomadic rendezvous with fellow technomad Ben Willmore. Ben, like us, gave up his physical home and has been traveling around full time for over 3 years now in a customized 40ft motor coach.

Three Years Nomadic
Exactly three years ago, on April 1st 2006, my nomadic wanderings began.
I set off without a clear plan, other than that I wanted to explore making nomadism a fulfilling life, and not a “trip” with some particular destination or end-point in mind. {More…}
Late Night GeoWanking in Lompoc, CA
One of the thing that we’ve been most wanting to incorporate into our blog posting has been maps.
After a lot of late night experimentation with a lot of Word Press plugins of (ahem) varying quality, I think I am at last happy with the results I am getting from the Wordpress Geo Mashup plugin. See what the maps look like…
