My husband and I quit our jobs 8 months ago to travel the world. Our first Epic Adventure was a road trip from Alberta, Canada to South Padre Island, Texas. The goal was to avoid the cold Canadian winter by becoming a “Winter Texan”. We spent a few months windsurfing on SPI before making our way back North to mountain bike in Colorado and watch the Salt Lake City AMA Supercross Championship in Utah. Our next adventure was spending 7 weeks in Europe. We motorcycled Ireland, hiked in Scotland, bicycled in the Netherlands, and ate chocolate and drank beer in Belgium.
All of these adventures were great, but something was missing from each. Real Adventure. So we have decided to leave behind the comforts of North America and Europe, and head to SE Asia.
We leave for Vietnam tomorrow – a one way ticket to Hanoi. We are starting our trip by motorcycling around Northern Vietnam, along the Laos and China borders, visiting Ba Be National park and staying in various small villages. After that, who knows? We might try some windsurfing in Mui Ne, might head to the Temples of Angkor Wat. Might just find a beach and do nothing. We have time, a little bit of savings left and a desire for some Epic Adventures to add to our life story. Follow us on Live Life Epic to see where the road takes us!
