We launched our WWOOFing Honeymoon on New Years Eve, with a gathering of the Tribe – friends came together at the house to send us off, celebrate the new year, and warm the home we were departing for our dear friend Jacque, who is moving in with her dog, cats, and man. It was a truly beautiful, deeply-connecting party; setting the ideal frame of mind for our journey.

Now that things are finally, literally rolling, I’ve let myself feel the excitement – I am just insanely pumped. Everything is falling into place so magically, flowing so easily and organically – even preparing for a 2-month roadtrip & moving out of my house of 17 years was almost without stress – just amazing luck, perfect timing, and opening opportunities.

On New Year’s Day we finished packing and helped Jacque move, then we rolled out of Minneapolis and drove out to my sister’s in Illinois – where we’re spending two relaxing nights before pushing on to Oxford, Mississippi for our first WWOOF farm stint.

Happy New Year’s everyone – 2014 is looking to be the best, most interesting year of my life. Hope it is for you too!
