I am so excited for you and to follow along on your journey! We all should learn to unattach from an anchor....then our lives can lead us to where we need to go, so much easier said than done. You are doing it!

Everything has its pros and cons, but you are right. Sometimes we need to let the wind blow us where it wants.

Guam sounds - and looks - fabulous! Greetings from cold, stormy UK...

Hope you find the right place to make into home really soon. Exciting task, love your Pinterest page.

Your comment about worldly possessions on the ocean, somewhere, takes me straight back to being nine; arriving in Aden with very little, staying in the Rock Hotel (the only Modernist building in the place) a week, before moving into a flat with plain army furniture and hardly any of our stuff.

The excitement six weeks later when our three wooden crates arrive after crossing oceans. What was packed, what got left behind? Here's the record player, Mum's cushions, Dad's pipe rack! Where are brother Pete's toys? Most importantly are all my books safe? They are..!

Thanks for taking me back there, to that excitement! x

Wow, you’ve experienced this as a child! I do anticipate opening the packing boxes like it’s Christmas morning, lol.

At some point living here will just be living…just like when we moved to San Diego…but I’m the meantime it does feel like an adventure.
