Like a rolling stone that gathers no moss, aye.
I have chosen to be semi-retired in order to fulfill my purpose of a travel-and-learn lifestyle. It is easier when no kids are involved, just my wife and I,  free to go anywhere and anytime with minimal restrictions.
What about you?  |
Hah, I am kinda wandering.... still.... No kids, no wife, which pretty much means no stability ;-). I don't travel too much anymore as i have developed a phobia about flying, not that I won't, i just don't like to anymore. Suprising, because in my youth i travelled non-stop. All over Europe, Japan, Australia, Costa Rica. My last big trip was a few years ago to Qatar. Born in South Africa, I now lived in the States since '83 (apartheid was too much for me, had to leave). Lived in Los Angeles, New York, Vancouver (Canada) until they threw me out for overstaying my welcome ;-), Seattle, and now Idaho (Incidently, the Dali Llama speaks here tomorrow for 9/11 aniversary, the town is buzzing with the Dali Drama). Where I go from here I do not know, though probably somewhere with a beach. Saving up for a sailboat, maybe see you in NZ one day! Beautiful sailing down there I hear....
Roverchic, I am presently living with friends who have 4 kids, yikes, love em, but am glad they're not mine
On to Rovers. One thing to bear in mind is that Rovers of this age were pretty much hand built. Meaning some were good, some not so. There was a big discussion (kind of a joke) on edmunds boards about LandRovers built on a Monday were a little lacksidasically (sp?) put together after those damn brits had been boozing all weekend. One's on Friday the same because the weekend was near. I think the consensus was to get one built on a wednesday...lol! But, once the kinks were ironed out (hopefully under warranty) on the mon/fri rovers, they were good to go.
