About Us

We are a 50 something couple who have just found out hat we are about to be made redundant.  Are we downhearted?  No we are not! Well sometimes just a little but we are determined to make the best of a bad situation.

We have worked in the pharma industry for a combined 25 years and are now about to  commence the biggest adventure of our lives. 

If everything falls into place the way we want it too we are going to head across the pond and spend a year travelling the USA in a camper van.

We love the USA and have already been to the west coast together driving from San Franciso to LA, rafted the Grand Canyon and spend Christmas and New Year in Miami and Key West. There are so many places to see and things to do that without and opportunity like this we would probably never get through the list. 

We will have to do something when we get back to earn a living but this year will give us the time and space to think about what we really want to do with the rest of our lives.  The tentative plan is to immigrate to Barbados and run a Holiday Rental, Guest House or Bed and Breakfast business.  We do have four children and one grand-daughter and the big issue is whether we really bear to be so far away from them all.  One thing the year away will help us decide is whether we can do this or not.

So if you want to hear whether we make the dream a reality and how we do it please follow this self-indulgent blog - the more followers we have the more chance we have of making a little money from it through advertising that will ultimately help fund the trip.....
