I love being a tourist in my own city. Especially with people that have never been to Austin. Extra especially when they have never even been to Texas, or America for that matter. Kelly and I totally slacked on the blog the last few months of our trip and never wrote about our time in [...]

In the year or so I’ve been home, several people have asked me if I was able to ‘get traveling out of my system’ after spending such a long time on the road. You would think this would be the case after sleeping in hostels, wearing the same clothes, and living out of a back [...]
