Intro

The reason I've left my familiar, rainy Seattle surroundings to become a "travel wife" is to be with my husband who commutes weekly to California for his work. While doing the Monday - Thursday commute with him, I thought it'd be nice to start a travel blog.



Here are some goals for this blog: 
1) To share my travels and experiences in Northern California
2) To keep connected with friends and family back home
3) Since I quit my job in project management, I know I need some structure to my days so that I don't drive myself or my husband crazy! As anyone who knows a good project manager can testify: PM + nothing to organize or plan = is not a pretty sight.
4) I would also like to improve my writing skills


Two things I'd really like to pursue while taking some time off from work are exercising more and learning to cook. Before, working left me weary and full of excuses NOT to exercise, let alone plan a meal. So now, excuses aside, I'd love to do both! And I feel grateful to have the opportunity to do so.  Other things I'm interested in are learning to crochet or knit, wine tasting, and photography, which I plan to include in my future blogs.


So join me as I explore new territory, and feel free to comment too! I'd love to hear thoughts or feedback on my postings.
