The Beginning

My first visit to Costa Rica was a life changing experience.  Until that time I was content with life...my job...my friends.  Now that I think back on it, I wasn't spinning my wheels.  I was preparing for this long journey. An awakening occurred.  An awakening I wouldn't fully understand until my 5th trip back.  I realized that we (my wife & I) needed to sell all of our material possessions, sell our 2 condo's here on Maui and eventually quit my  job which I've worked the last 17 years..Now keep in mind, I live on beautiful Maui.  The "Best Island in the World" according to many travel publications and debatingly...rightfully so...I've had some good times here...made some good friends...but the tug of  "This Awakening" is pulling me...I'm totally encapsulated in preparing our finances to the last penny.  Decreasing our debt and daydreaming of a life on a secluded beach amongst virgin rainforest.  I want this life....I need this life...this will be our story of how it comes together.  I'm not a writer. As a matter of fact, I'm intimidated by the thought of it...but I'm taking this leap of faith and I will forever be changed by it.  Join my wife and I on this journey and I look forward to sharing our experiences...Until next time Aloha and Pura Vida....
