Welcome! I am focused on comfortable travel that isn’t quite luxury, but isn’t always basic. I’m a part-time digital nomad with a full-time position in the U.S. I take blocks of time and have worked elsewhere since I became an empty nester in 2016 (with a year off for covid). The countries I’ve worked from include: Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Mexico, Japan, and India. My return locations include Portugal (winters) and Japan (fall and summers). I am planning to take the next four years and do some slow travel - this involves getting rid of most of our ‘stuff’, house, and budgeting to travel and continue to work.

Below you will find:
