What do you do when you wake up one day and find yourself content but not 100% happy with your life? We were at that point in the fall of 2005. From the outside looking in, life was great. We had achieved the American Dream at 30 years old. But something wasn't quite right. Once you achieve this so called dream are you destined to spend the rest of your life working 9 to 5, five days a week, just waiting for Friday to roll around? That sure didn't seem like any dream we had hoped to achieve.
For us the decision was easy. We would sell almost everything we owned, buy a van, outfit it into our home and travel for a couple of years. Instead of just existing, we would start LIVING our lives. We would put our fingers on the pulse of what was going on in our world. We would take our time, avoid the major highways, big cities and find out if there is a dream out there closer to what we really hope to achieve with our lives.
During this adventure we want to educate ourselves on how to live a more sustainable life. We hope to find others who share our values and see how they are making the Dream work for them. Along the way we will see some great sights and have a good time.
