The seeds have been planted

JJ and I are back in Denver for a bit … it is SO nice to be home. We left in November to get the heck out of “Dodge” and look beyond our everyday, seemingly mundane existence; and in search of Peace Love and Coffee we went! Our intentions were to embrace the freedom of the open road through the experiences we encountered as they came to us. My love for people and coffeehouses provided the fuel for which we traveled from place to place across the northwest in Santiago. Wow! Neat stuff out there in America! Each day offered adventures that could inspire even the laziest of dreamers :) We each now know for certain that we want much more travel in combination with simple living … we will forever be women that crave new opportunities to see the world as they teach us more about ourselves. We also hope to find ways to be of service to you and humanity as a whole … it will be fun to see how this will unfold.

We hoped to be living the gypsy lifestyle for almost a year … visions of spending my days reading under a tree then cooking amazing wholesome meals for new friends danced in my heart. And although we loved our adventure, the reality wasn’t quite as glamorous. As we regroup our first goals are to get JJ through high school and find a place to plant ourselves for the timebeing. She misses the company of kids to hang out with and wants to focus on completing high school. As for me … I want to be of service to others, make some money, write a book, and lead a very simple life that is full of laughter, learning and sharing.

Our journey of Peace Love and Coffee began years before the day we left Denver last year and it will continue for many more.  After experiencing a great deal of coffeehouses and communities in the northwest I  will begin to write my book this month.  The website will be taking a turn from the personal journey of me and JJ to being coffeehouse-driven. 

Please join me on the next phase of my journey ... it will be a great ride!
