So we’ve decided to move to Costa Rica, and the big day is almost here!

Why we’re moving out of the country

With not having much packing room, we’ve had to be very selective in what we’re taking.

Purpose of this blog

Through this blog we can allow our friends and family to follow us on our journey, and we will have a place to keep all of our experiences and memories, good and bad. It also will give us some feedback when people leave comments, which will be interesting to know what others are thinking.
