Where are we going?

We plan to follow this dashing red line around the planet...


Does it remind you of Indiana Jones? Me too.

Subject to the whims of the road, we plan to set out from Austin, TX, drive around the Western US, and then set out in an easterly direction to Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America. We look forward to sharing our adventures with you!

  11. Excited for your world travels and look forward to following along.
    For the record though, without leaving Texas you could visit Paris, Palestine, and Italy.

  12. Hey guys, have you taken off yet? The Walkers are very excited about following your travels.

    Some of the best advice we ever got about traveling was to figure out how to be both alert and relaxed: don't wanna be stressed out and high-strung or you won't notice or enjoy the good parts, but you also don't want to be so laid back that you get taken advantage of (sorry, ended that with a preposition!). So: keep yourselves well informed, always carry a compass and snack food, and have a blast!

    Best wishes for success on your many adventures. Find your way back to Austin and show off your travel pictures. Bon Voyage!
