WHO ARE WE?

We are, Kevin and Idalis and this is our blog. Welcome!

Kevin was born in Miami, Florida and is 36 years of age. Idalis was born in Vineland, New Jersey and she is 31. Fate brought us together on April 3, 2004. Fate now has us leaving behind the comfort of our 'normal' lives to head out and explore the world. A desire that we both shared and until two years ago, had no idea was possible. With some sacrifice, reorientation of goals, and some sound saving and investing we now know how possible it is and has become.

We plan to leave on the first week of August '08 and will head east. Our first stop will be either Madrid, Spain or Lisbon, Portugal. From there, it is anyone's guess, but we would like to continue through to Morocco, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Turkey, China, India, Tibet, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, New Zealand and Australia. If time and money permits, it will be on to South America.

Life, as we know it, is soon to change. The cars get sold, the condo gets rented and a bag gets packed. Between now and summer there is a lot of planning to do. Please join us as we work to make our dream a reality. If you are viewing this blog, you are either a friend or a member of the family and we urge you to stay in touch with us and tag along while we vagabond!

I am so excited for you both. And although it will be most difficult, tears even well up a bit now and it is months before you leave, to not have two of the most wonderful people I know near me, I am overwhelmed with joy for you on the upcoming journey you will be on. You will be missed.
