Road Trip to the West
What follows below must be one of the most amazing trips I (Jerome) have ever taken. Seraina was able to join us for the trip below for the first couple of days, so the majority of the below will be written just out of the perspective of Jerome. In most cases, we will let pictures …

Prolonged Summer
Even though we were talking about the end of summer in our last post… well we added two weeks of summer by taking a well earned vacation in the south, just as the weather forecast predicted the first snow for Minneapolis. We looked at the map of the Amtrak train system and picked the location …

Our first post (and hopefully not last).
Tl;dr (too long, didn’t read) We are moving to the USA for two to three years. We had the idea to start posting about our adventures, such that others may take part in what we are doing, providing another way to stay in touch. The reasoning on why to relocate to the U.S. is, that …
