Imagine putting your life in storage, a life you’ve grown accustomed to and worked hard to build, and heading out into the great unknown. Imagine selling almost everything you own and shrinking your life down to fit inside a 3×10 meter compartment. While we knew we wanted to take our life on the road for a long time, and spent years “practicing”, knowing what we know now, would we still have done what we did?

Damn straight! We would do it again. And we should have done it sooner. Yes, it was one of the scariest things we ever did in our lives. It still is. But we’ve learned and grow in ways that we are still measuring.

Read a BookWe have put together a list of books that inspire us, not only in our photography but also in our life. They influence our life, our decisions, and our choices. We hope they will influence and change your life, too.

We have become an example to others, though we didn’t set out to do so. We did this for ourselves. If we can help others along the way, our life is richer. We are often asked to share our “how tos” about taking our life, not just our camera, on the road. Here, in our Being Zone, we will address some of the issues about the “being” lessons we’ve learned in our life, becoming more flexible and adaptable in our lifestyle, relationships, and interpersonal communications. Over the years spent living on the road, more changed than just our location. We found ourselves stretched, folded, and molded into new beings.

Part of our “being” is the family and friends we’ve collected along the way, staying in touch and getting support from all over the world as we venture out alone, but never alone. We also share some of these wonderful people with you in our Scrapbook and in our Telling Zone.
