===So what now?===
Well, my goal is really just to master this nomad thing. It’s just now,
a year in, that I feel like we’re getting the hang of it. I knew going into this, we’d learn a lot along the way, and the more we figure out and adjust to, the easier, more enjoyable and less stressful it’d be. Meanwhile, we’ve been discovering things in our great country we didn’t know existed. We’ve been in awe of so many places we’ve seen. And we’re meeting a lot of nice people we wouldn’t otherwise. We haven’t decided where we want to settle down yet, but we’re living the dream and having a crapload of adventures along the way.
