About this blog

We have 4 months to take a break from being responsible adults, without having to worry about annoying things like mortgages, jobs and bills. Before we settle in a new country, we will be cramming in as much fun, culture, food and amazing experiences as we possibly can. This blog will document one woman's attempt to experience as many new cultures and foods possible......and one man's attempt to live off a jar of peanut butter!!
