Internet, finally!

By |2011-08-09T14:08:09+12:00August 9th, 2011|Adventure|

When you are a wired person, it is really strange to unplug. This is a new phenomenon for our species; we have only had electronics for under a century, and the level of integration with our brain capacity that we have achieved was unthinkable a decade ago. Now, anytime I want to record an idea, [...]

Live, in Costa Rica!

Finally, we are Home. This is our house. We live on top of a mountain called Tierra del Verano; Summerland. At the bottom of the mountain path (100 meters long, and 125 meters down from our house) is the highway that connects San Isidro, the 2nd largest city in the country, and Dominical, one of [...]

The Highland Roots

This weekend, I took my children to The Highland Games, so I could expose them to the community of Scots from whence they came. Indilea loves the idea of cousins. She has always wanted cousins.

Other people are eating, sure, [...]

I lost my backpack this weekend. And it didn’t even phase me. I’m a Capricorn. I am notoriously addicted to stuff. While not exactly a hoarder, I could easily be called a collector…and maybe even an over-packer. I like to be well stocked and supplied. Okay, I’m a hoarder. When we move to Costa Rica [...]

Relaxing from my Center
