The Non-Conformity Club (You're Invited!)

I'm in the process of reneweing my passport.  I've had it nearly 10 years.  A few days after I got this passport I flew to London as a study abroad program... and that's when everything changed.  My naiveness evolved from not thinking Belgium had automobiles to a global traveler and lifelong adventurer

"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." 
-Helen Keller-


Those close to me have a hard time keeping track of where I am and where I'm going... In the last 6 years I've lived in 7 cities and traveled to 5 countries.  I keep on thinking, eventually I'll stop, or slow down.  But then... I realized...

I'm not alone...

In fact, I'm actually quite tame in comparison to the others out there.  And I'm feeling inspired.  I thought I'd put together what I've found because maybe  you are looking for this also.

I really believe that my lifestyle is a choice..  If you have the slightest interest to see a bit more of the planet or just stop working from 8:30am - 6:30pm everyday... check out some of THESE OPTIONS!
