The ongoing story of two, restless wanderers from Idaho.
There seem to be a bazillion nomad bloggers out there talking about how cheap it is to travel, but very few are open about their finances. We’ve gotten quite a few questions about how we can afford to travel full-time, so we’ve decided to open up the books and do a monthly post with the details of our budget. The hope is that these posts will help prepare others who are thinking about jumping into the nomad life, and help us re-assess our spending habits. Enjoy!

I feel pretty good about our first overseas month. We did not achieve our goal budget nor were we able to offset it enough with our income. However, I think we learned a lot and are ready for the challenge that February brings.
We rented an electric scooter, braved the Chinese traffic, and set out for a hike up Moon Hill near Yangshuo.
Not every adventure can be epic, so here is a montage of some of my less than totally awesome Adventures With Jen.
