I have finally decided to create another blog! Our Off Exploring blog has been closed and we had it printed into a book for our keepsake!  It is a priceless bathroom reader now, from which we all get a giggle now and then as we read about silly little things we have already completely forgotten.

I have so enjoyed keeping in touch with all of you - many we have known "forever" - many we have met along the way - and many more we have yet to meet – that I can no longer suppress this relentless urge to Blog.  It's so exciting that there are people right next to us every day that with a little effort can become new friends (how fun is that?).  My new job has put me in the middle of an entirely new circle of amazing people, as has Tim's... and so the friendships grow...

We welcome you again on our journey. We are not travelling any great distance over any great land, however, ‘Travel’ is defined by Miriam Beard in such a way that we may cover more ground from within than even we are prepared for…  “Travel is more than seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.”
