It’s been one year since we left Portland, Oregon. One year since we left behind our steady jobs, steady friends, and a steady and comfortable life. We traded in our beloved apartment management positions where we paid no rent in a very desirable neighborhood in a truly lovely city. To some, giving up all this security and comfort might seem…
As wee little Explorer Genes in 1989, Greg and Mandy certainly had one thing in common as they watched Indiana Jones emerge into the ancient city of Petra’s Treasury in The Last Crusade… how can such a magical place actually exist and how awesome would it be to see it in person? It took 30 years, but we finally made it happen, and we also threw in some incredible ruins, castles, ancient mosaics, and otherworldly nature in the process. And not to forget, some really amazing and genuine people along the way.
