Travel

Who are we?

I’m Trevis, an early retired travel lover who has decided to take the opportunity of a lifetime to trade a conventional working life for one of long term travel. My profession was as a software developer and software development manager.

More people probably know me through my hobbies, though. Specifically social dancing (Salsa, Zouk, Argentine Tango, Swing, Bachata, Kizomba) dancing and photography. I plan to share my favorite images and the boring details of our slow traveling lives here and on Facebook.

I’m Chrissy, and my love for travel began when my parents, a pastor and a stay-at-home mom, took me and my sisters on road trips around the Midwest to visit relatives during summer vacations. We spent long hours in the car reading books and singing silly songs broken up by picnics, camping in our tent, and playing with cousins.

As an adult I started planning trips with friends to places like New York, Mackinac Island, and the Gulf Coast. Then I met Trevis and he caught my travel bug – yay! We both got passports and took off on our first of many trips together.

Where we are, where we've been?

What have we been up to?

You did what?? Visited the Dentist!

I expect that will be the initial reaction when family and friends back home learn that one of the first things I did upon leaving the U.S. was to book an appointment to go to the dentist.

Castillo de Chapultepec

There’s a large park about 25 minutes away from our place in Polanco, CDMX. There are a number of attractions there including a botanica garden and a museum of anthropology but yesterday we went to visit Castillo de Chapultepec.

Las medicinas

One of the things that we’d wanted to accomplish internationally is getting prescription medications. Turns out that in Mexico my cholesterol medicine does not even require a prescription.

Mexico City – CDMX

Visiting Mexico City has been on our radar for some time but we just never got around to it before now. We speak a little Spanish and Mexico is an easy flight from the US so it seemed like a fitting place to start our slow travels

So Many Goodbye’s

The last month or so of our time before leaving the US for extended slow travel around the world has been filled with hundreds of goodbyes, some forever but many only temporary.
