The time has finally come for us to embark on this life changing adventure, leaving all that is comfortable behind, and head for our new home in Mazatlan Mexico.
We have loaded up our 6 x10 trailer (with motorbikes) attached it to our 1967 International Scout, ready to hit the open road heading to USA. We will drive down Hwy 101 along the coast until we reach our border crossing destination in to Mexico. We have no set date to enter Mexico but will probably take a week to do the entire trip to our final destination.
It's amazing how much work goes in to moving especially when its out of country. We have had to purge most of our possessions and store the important things with family. The hardest thing about getting rid of stuff is realizing how much crap one collects that has no value in life. All this materialistic stuff that we just hide in cupboards and closets in case we will use it, when really out of sight out of mind. This new adventure and life style that we are aiming for will be one lived with minimal possessions and less materialistic consumption.
I am excited for this, I have no clue what to expect and though everyone around us is worried about what we are about to embark on ( which is appreciated) but life is all about living and risks are needed to keep our souls alive. I have never done well with the mundane daily routine of life. I like change, crave adventures, and really enjoy meeting new people, learning about their culture.
Together Brad and I work well and have always been able to adapt to change. Were a good team and this is just one of many adventures we will share together. So please join us vicariously on our trip down to Mexico. Message us if you have questions, advice, or comments.
We are so thankful to our family and friends for all their support and love.
Adios
