Quandary,
bierstadt, Grey's and torreys,Carrie and Heidi first met in Steamboat Springs, CO doing seasonal work and although we live in different states now, we are travel soul mates! We have been traveling together since 2007 and have had many highs and lows along the way, but one thing our trips never lack is adventure. We wish we had started this blog years ago, but here is our best attempt to summarize where we have been and to start writing about where our future takes us.
