Up the East Coast – June 15 to July 15, 2016

Travel Hacking, United States, World Trip

The last two weeks of June and July we enjoyed by relaxing in TN before heading up the east coast to our month-long stay in Montreal at the end of July/beginning of August. We got things in order in Nashville and visited with Nicole and Jose and then Mayne’s parents in Knoxville. It was a short visit but we are happy for every chance we get to hangout with the family. After TN we decided (more…)

After Charleston, we continued our winter tour of the south in Savannah.  We assumed that there would not be as much to do in Savannah so we only stayed a week.  In hindsight, we could have stayed a month or longer and enjoyed it just as much!  We have moved the city to our shortlist of ones where we might want to buy property and live part of each year. In general, it has also (more…)

  First – a little update…. We have fallen a little behind in posting, mainly because we have been so busy!  We are both working from the road which is fun but takes time, and we have spent the past two weeks straight hanging out with friends and family in Atlanta, Nashville and then Knoxville.  It has been a blast and we are so thankful to be able to live this lifestyle which allows us (more…)

Maui, Hawaii - January 2016

Maui, Hawaii – January 2016

Our second travel stop this year was Maui. It was Elisa’s first time there and Mayne’s second (a shorter visit on cruise). So far, it is our second favorite Hawaiian island of the four that we have visited. The vibe in Maui is more up-scale than the other islands. There is a good mix of city living available as well as rural, up-country living. My guess is that the real estate on Maui is the (more…)

The Big Island of Hawai'i - January 2016

After San Diego we redeemed some British Airways points to fly on American Airlines from LAX to KOA (Kona, on the big island of Hawaii). This is one of the cheapest ways to get a free flight to Hawaii, at only 12.5k miles + $5 ticketing fee one-way per person from the west coast. You can transfer Chase Ultimate points to British miles or just use British miles, if you got them. Accumulating enough miles (more…)

We’re Off! First Stop – San Diego New Years 2016

After many months of waiting we are finally on the way!  We left Nashville on a weirdly warm day December 29th but we were both looking forward to our first couple stops in sunny California and Hawaii.  It is exciting to be back on the road and we are grateful for the opportunity to live in the present and make our goal of travel a reality! We will certainly miss our family and friends along (more…)
