Our original nomad channel—most of this webpage is designed especially for you! Especially the Q&A and blog.

We are full-time retired travelers, nomads of the land and sea. Come taste life with us as we travel the world experiencing cultures, food, libations, nature and wildlife! We’ve got tons of info to help you with your own nomad journey, cruising or tasting, with links above to our various YouTube channels and content-specific areas of this website.

We crave new places and new experiences and can’t wait to share them with you. We sold everything in 2023 and now live in vacation rentals and hotels all over the world so come along by blog, YouTube and social media to see what our life as retired nomads is like. You’ll find tips and resources to help you explore as well, using travel hacks to afford living life around the world on a budget, including on cruises.

We are Tim & Kathi, full-time slow travel nomads, or slomads. We retired in our mid-50’s and now use our creative juices to share our adventures with you.

Tim enjoys creating YouTube videos so please see our video page and subscribe to our channel! Kathi will get personal blogging on all the “feels,” thoughts and surprises as we live this nomad adventure.

The best way to follow our journey is on Facebook and Instagram, where we constantly post reels, photos and updates, as well as our plans, budget figures and tips on how to save money traveling. Click on our social media links at the top right corner of this page.

Q & A:

The Full-Time Travel Life

Kathi’s Emotional Journey

What’s it REALLY like to sell everything and travel the world full-time?

That’s what I wanted to know as I researched the Nomad life!

So I’m here to overshare it all—everything that feeds my soul with joy & delicious new insights, and everything that breaks my heart & makes me sick to my stomach.

Grab your favorite beverage & let’s dish about the untethered life!

Tim Brings You With Us

Where the heck ARE you? Why? What’s there? What do you do all day?

That’s what our kids want to know and maybe you do too!

So Tim decided to bring you along! He needed a new hobby that could could fit in his backpack and he’s always loved photography, so YouTube it is! Once we got started we decided to share ALL our travel-related passions with you so now there are 3 YouTube channels—one about our nomad life, one about our extensive cruise habit, and one where we take you wine, beer and alcohol tasting with us.

Link to all 3 of our YouTube Channels directly using the icons at the bottom or top of this page.

Living With Purpose

Life is a journey. Every influence, every circumstance—both good and bad—challenges and changes us. Every exposure outside of the idea of “normal”—the worldview we grew up with—demands that we learn, carefully consider our thoughts and opinions, and form deeper, more compassionate connections. We’ve never been ones to conform or take the easier path. We want to live with passion and purpose. We want to tangibly care for those who cross our path.

Travel has always presented these opportunities for us and it is now our way of life as nomads. We hope to extend and even improve our health with a lifestyle that constantly challenges us in mind, body and spirit as individuals and as a couple.
