Technomadia
Adventures in Nomadic Serendipity
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. He’s an expert photographer and Photoshop wizard, and he funds his nomadic lifestyle by giving seminars, writing books, and conducting training expeditions.
We thought it’s be interesting to talk with him about his approach to technomadism and compare notes:
Time Period: March 22 – April 9, 2009 Miles Driven: 991 On the morning of March 22, 2009 we pulled up the jacks in South San Francisco, hitched up and made a mad dash out of California. Well, mad dash in a nomadic sense. We didn’t actually cross the border into Arizona for another 2 […]
During our visit with Melanie Waldman in Studio City, not only did we get to interview her about her neighborhood, but we also got interviewed by her about our travels. After all, do we not fit her website’s theme of travels for two? She just published her article this morning, and we think it’s fantastic. […]
While we were at ETech last month, one of their sponsors asked if they could interview us. The Yahoo Developer Network recently released their video interview with us.. check it out!

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…}
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…
On our journey down the Pacific Coast Highway (Route 1) of California, we stopped for a day at the base of Morro Rock. It is part of a series of nine volcanic plugs on the way to San Luis Obisbo county, and very distinctive looking as you drive into Morro Bay.
We’re often asked what a typical day is like for us. There really is no typical in our life – we try to avoid having that word describe us. So it’s probably best to occasionally illustrate what some of our days look like. Yesterday, our first day back in motion after a few months parked […]
Today we were able to join the Geeks at GeekSpeak at KUSP 88.9 in Santa Cruz during our adventure southward. Chris used to be a regular co-host to GeekSpeak when he lived in the Bay Area, and now we stop in when we’re in the area. We helped field calls and news stories, and on […]
