More about hartmangoseedo
The beauty of travel is that someone's ordinary becomes your extraordinary. Mike and I pack a backpack, make NO itinerary and start exploring once our feet hit the ground, staying in cheap hostels or a room in a home of a local along the way. We travel not to escape life, but so that life does not escape us. Our way of thinking is the world is a book and those that do not travel read only one page. All we can say is Go, See and Do. Yep, we haven't been everywhere...but it's on our list!
