So Yeah... This Just Happened

I don’t often share too much about my life outside of travel and language learning here.

But I do know that a lot of you have been following my adventures for years now so I want to share this big news with you.

I’m engaged.

Yep – changing pronouns officially (me -> we).

I’ve just been exploring and enjoying northern California with my fiancée and her family the last few weeks. We trekked to the top of a peak overlooking Lake Tahoe – weather and the view couldn’t have been more perfect – and I popped the question.

Which she of course said yes to.

So here’s to new things.

My fiancée’s just as adventurous as I am (if not more) so the language immersion doesn’t stop here – it just gets better.

I’ve said several times before that solo travel gets old.

There does actually come a point where it all starts to feel very tedious and lonely when you’re not sharing experiences with anyone.

For quite some time I’ve been at that point where traveling to new places on my own has become very routine and dull so the thought of having a family of my own and traveling together is an exciting thing – a very different dynamic to look forward to.

So we’ll be heading off to the Middle East together next month to live and work, continue with Arabic, hit up Morocco (hopefully) and then choose a new language and location for next year.

Hope you’re enjoying your break.
