Kay and Frank's journey around the world - without a plan!
About this blog
Two beltway bandits from Washington DC quit their jobs to venture around the world - without a Plan! We started our journey camping through the Southeast United States. Then we headed south from Mexico to Panama and everywhere in between. We returned back to the States for little rest and more camping in California. Now we've found ourselves in Southeast Asia. Again, without a plan!
Please feel free to drop us a line - we'd love to hear from you!
