Faith and I were essentially homeless. We lived out of our car as we traveled from Boston, where we had just finished graduate school, to Seattle and back to Des Moines to start the rest of our lives. We lived on very little money, mooching off friends to be sure, but mostly camping and backpacking our way across the country. We also learned how thrilling and educational such an adventure is. Faith and I have always welcomed adventures in our lives.
Adventure means a journey with a surprise destination.
And that it seems to me is the best kind of travel. We look forward to getting back on the road again. You never know what is going to happen to you. Traveling is one of the most important ways we learn and grow. It's not just for the retired.
