We love our life! 
My partner Kim and I come from very different backgrounds and we found each other in a non-traditional way. She has a wanderer’s soul and I tend to try to settle in wherever I am. We mentally process things differently and our personalities are not alike much of the time, but opposites do attract. We love each other and there’s no one else I would rather travel the world with than her. And if she has to be “stuck” in the same place for longer than a year, I bet she’d choose me to be stuck with. Right babe? Babe??? Here’s a little about us, we love our life, your world our way.
All About Us
Kim
She’s been in a near-constant state of motion since she was born. She’s been across the country more than once and a few years ago, backpacked around Central America with her daughters Tayler and Aubrie. Kim is a certified massage therapist with a bachelor’s degree in health and wellness. She is also a certified doula and Reiki practitioner. Always up for an adventure, she likes to try new things and explore new places. Except Brazil nuts. She has never liked those, which is great because that leaves more for me. She used to also hate IPAs but we’ve recently discovered Fiddlehead IPA. Gee whiz, it’s fantastic!
Jamie
I am not nearly as worldly as Kim, but I have lived in four different states and someday I’d like to drive around the country and visit national landmarks, like the Grand Canyon, the redwood and sequoia national forests, and the world’s largest chicken wing.
**Updated to add that Kim crossed the Grand Canyon off my list! We were blessed to spend Spring 2025 with family in Utah and got to go road trippin’.
Kim has broadened my view of the world and myself in it and even though we haven’t always had easy conversations about beginning our adventures, I am beyond thankful that she lets me tag along and write about what we do. So far we’ve lived in Maine, China, Thailand, Turkey, Taiwan, and Costa Rica.
Tayler
After the ol’ college try and then some exciting solo globetrotting to Thailand, Tayler, our older daughter, returned to New England. She worked hard in the service industry, from hospitality at a summery seasonal inn to one of the most essential jobs out there: daycare. The trade from golf carts and cleaning supplies to changing tables and warmed bottles must have hit a nerve in her natural, nurturing side. As if working with children all day wasn’t enough, she decided to pop out her own future traveler. Pictured above you see jolly holiday Conner, Tayler, and Unparalleled Grandson Silas.
Aubrie
Aubrie, the youngest, came with us to China for the first year before deciding she un-abroaded herself and returned to the States. She graduated high school and also dove headfirst into the service industry, working at the same seasonal seaside resort as Tayler. Then she moved inland and worked her way up the corporate ladder at an international hotel chain while also achieving her associate’s degree of business management online. There was an empty space on the way among her degrees and certificates so she also got her real estate license. Pictured above you see her with her babe of the woods, Kyle.
Nik
Let’s not forget Nik, our oldest offspring, who was already on his own when she and I met. A trustworthy and versatile guy, Nik’s held a variety of careers while traveling mostly domestically. From scaping lands across New England to flipping houses in Ohio, working security in Maine to working securely from home in New Hampshire, he’s a real go-getter who always has a plan and an idea to make anything better. See what he did above? He went from one guy to a luminous family of four, where you see Tanya, our grandchildren Bentley and Tylee and Nik.
Your world our way.
Wherever we go, we will find adventure, good food and drink and good people. We will bring the love! And maybe some shenanigans. It’s all about us, we love our life, your world our way. You can also follow our adventures on our Instagram here.
