More Baja time in my future


Fellow Nomads,
I am about to be free to increase my Baja adventures. I have held off until now to begin my retirement countdown. I am happy to say that as of today, I have TEN working days remaining. I can't wait to be free to travel when specific things are happening rather than making do with dates that my work makes available. Whale season, best fishing seasons, fiestas, they will all be within my grasp. I have enjoyed all of my limited Baja travels and being able to share yours here, but shortly my options will be wide open. I can't wait. I hope to meet many more of you and visit your little pieces of paradise. Let the countdown begin!

John

Great for you...

It took me 10 weeks to get over the work mode (sleep) and into retirement mode, (sleep).

John, I always thought it was a joke til it became our reality: how did we ever have enough time to work!?

Where will you go first is the big question?





Come visit La Bocana
