    Where’s Home for a Barefoot Nomad?

    Where is home?

    Is it a place? The house you grew up in? Where you keep your most treasured possessions?

    Overcoming The Fear of Travel… Maybe

    When people ask us why we travel so many answers come to mind. Though rarely spoken, my initial thought is always the same, “How can I not travel?”

    Most hope for simple answers. Unfortunately I don’t have any simple answers for them, just a few questions and a lot of maybe’s….
