The Begining

There's something about giving up that makes people so uncomfortable. People want you to keep fighting. Not because it changes anything for them, but because the idea of them ending up in the same situation as you, is uncomfortable. However, what people seem to forget is that there's power in walking away and saying "fuck it." There's something to be said for knowing that by letting go, you have more power than by trying to hold on. It's something that I've had to learn over the past few years. It's been uncomfortable at times, but even as we lose our home and almost everything we own there's a sense of relief.

January of 2022 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I fought for my life, and I won. Gabby and I struggled as fatigue from the chemo set in. We pushed through as my strength deteriorated and the farm had to keep going. We relied on our friends and family to keep up on the chores that never seemed to end. All while loving being out in the middle of nowhere, hanging out with our goats. After multiple surgeries, chemo, radiation and complications from my treatment, we finally thought we were done. It seemed like we were in the clear and the storm was over. Then I got word that my battle with my insurance company and the hospitals weren't going our way. We finally got to the point where I could either lose more time with my kiddo, or we could let go of all of it, and start over again.

Here we are with no home and everything we own in a trailer. We're about to embark on our greatest adventure yet, traveling the world. Join us as we rediscover what a home is, what it means to live in this world, and reconnect with ourselves and the world around us. While our story may start from a place of sadness, this is not where it ends. We know that the world has so much more to offer, and that no matter how much it broke our hearts to say farewell, the joy we will experience from this journey will make it all worth it.
