Bonded Internet for the Win
As a full time nomad (starting my 5th year), one of the biggest problems I face constantly is connectivity. Even when I HAVE connectively, its usually pretty bad. I’ve tried a number of solutions, from McDonalds/Hotel/AirBnb/Public 😱 wifi, dedicated Cellular data devices, tethering my phone, and even trying to work off my iPad because it […]
Van Sold… living in Norway
It’s still a bit much processing that my van is gone. A little over 3 weeks ago I watched my van drive off, to never be seen again. Now I am living in Norway. 😱
Time to sell REALLY sell the Van.
After almost 3 years of semi-fulltime VanLife, it’s time to retire “Candy” my van. For those who follow on Facebook and/or Instagram, you know VanLife has been a LOT of Ups and Downs. Sadly for me, I think it’s been more Down’s. I think a combination of Loneliness, compounded with the extra hardships of Covid lockdowns, plus working more-than-fulltime has been VERY hard. I’ve had some AMAZING experiences with the bad, and I’m super grateful for that.

Picking a “Travel Computer” – Research
The first hurdle in my quest for a lighter load while traveling is my personal computer. Coming it at 4.02 pounds, and having way more power than I need 90% of the time on the road, I think it’s a fine candidate for down-sizing. The problem is… What to replace it with? Minimal Requirements The […]
Quitting the Internet…
So I got a great geek share from @Michael Sims today, and it really makes me consider quitting theInternets. About half-through the Objections section I knew it was fictitious, but none-the-less scary. We, the end-users, really have no protection for sites using crappy code review processes, or virus-ridden ad servers *cough cough openx cough**. At least […]
New Year, No Miles
It’s always depressing to start the new year and see your status down to Zero again. This is what I was greeted with yesterday when I logged in to confirm if I still have a system-wide upgrade that I need to use before it expires. I never even made it down the page far enough […]
