Breaks and Beginnings

Hey 2011! I am just over one year in the Bay Area now, and I'm getting ready for another adventure. The bay has been amazing: Great people, beautiful places, and rich activism, art, and music. Now I am ready for a small break from stable life, but I am certainly not done with this place so I will be back.

Tentative plans: My new sweetie, Josh, and I are planning an epic adventure down the coast of California and through Central America. On Tuesday we are leaving on a bike tour from San Francisco to Tijuana with a few other awesome people. After we cross the border into Mexico, we'll probably hitch hike and/or ride trains with our bikes to eventually land ourselves in Mexico city. Then we'll make our way down to Oaxaca and become Mexican revolutionaries. Hopefully we'll later make our way down to Nicaragua to meet up with my roommate who has family there. Here's the new adventure map:

This is all very overwhelming to put together, but I think we'll move at a pace that's comfortable and try to stay in places for longer periods of time when feeling burnt out. I'm excited to be travelling by land, and really excited for my first long bike tour!
