Alright, folks. It’s been 7 months now that I’ve been living out of a suitcase; 20,000 miles, 2 countries, 3 islands, 5 states and countless towns sleeping on rented beds and floors. Huge thanks to family and friends who have let me stay with them for free along the way - you’ve all been way more than hospitable. Today I moved into a lovely apartment and have my first semi-permanent place in a long time here in San Diego, California. It’s been a fantastic journey, one that’s far from over, but I’m happy to finally have a place to call home. Wheew! what a trip. Come visit me if you’re out this way.
