Travelin’ Blues

Although Sarah and Jeff are on a world adventure, there are parts of the journey that are not so glamorous. In addition to feeling homesick, they share what “travelin’ blues” is to them. Some may take pleasure in this and think “Ah ha, I knew quitting their jobs isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be!” That’s right my friend, there is happiness in routines!

Good Bier, Good People, Good Times

Jeff and Sarah detour to Vienna, Austria before heading to Munich to reunite with their friends Rosa and Jon at Oktoberfest. They enjoy Viennese treats and stroll along the many winding and pretty sidewalks that Vienna has to offer. They head to Munich and spend much needed time with their friends from Houston and survive the splendid chaos of Oktoberfest. They marveled at nearby castles and palaces and found out that the “mad king” was really not all that mad and was just born at the wrong time with many enemies.

They then journey to Zagreb where they get a two week stay and indulge in the Croatian lifestyle!

Jeff and Sarah circle Ireland seeing as much as they can before a change of pace. They end up back in Dublin to dog sit a lovely puppy named Bruce for an awesome and generous couple for a week. They then hop over to the Greek island of Santorini and enjoy the islander (more touristy) lifestyle until things take an unfortunate turn.

Bridging the Gap Between Whisky and Whiskey

We said our farewells to Scotland who we love dearly now and made the most out of our last days there. Our discouraging introduction to Dublin was remedied by a walk in the woods in Belfast, and we walked along the famous steps “created” by Finn McCool.
