It is that time again! I seemed to have missed our 6 month anniversary a while back due to being in the midst of beautiful chaos (otherwise known as Burning Man) and I feel as though there is quite a few things that have happened in the past few months. Here is our progress report!… Continue reading Progress Report: Nov 2010
Happy Halloween (and we bring you an AWESOME Halloween video!)! This is our most favorite holiday of the year and we thought we should bring it in by introducing our first ever video featured on Over Yonderlust. I know I talk on Twitter about my awesome new pedicabbing job, however I thought I would bring… Continue reading Happy Halloween 2010!
I can, without a shadow of a doubt, say that I left my heart in San Francisco. Our San Francisco road trip part of our trip really caught me off guard. What can I say? I fell in love. People have often told me that San Francisco is essentially California’s version of Austin, Texas. While… Continue reading San Francisco Road Trip – Coming From Burning Man
While I had initially planned on continuing my Road Trip to Burning Man series, I thought I would push it to next post as I feel as though I have a more pressing matter to discuss. Fight or Flight: Wikipedia describes it as how animals react to threats with a general discharge of the sympathetic… Continue reading Fight or Flight Response
The road trip from Burning Man to Reno to San Francisco is one of the most horrific experiences I have had driving so far. The morning started out with Shaun (who used to be a mechanic) helping a few people out with their cars. The harsh desert conditions appeared to have taken its toll on… Continue reading Road Trip: Reno to San Francisco
We have a quick announcement to all of my dear readers, friends, and family before we return to our regularly scheduled posts. Change is in the wind... I do sincerely apologize in regards to the lack of posts this past week. There has been quite a bit going on in our lives and we wanted… Continue reading A Change in the Wind
When we pulled up to Burning Man our first day, I didn't understood why, when arriving at the gate, the volunteers welcome every single car with a hearty, "WELCOME HOME!" and a hug (yes, they make you hug out the car window or GET OUT of the car!) until I was about to leave the… Continue reading The Man Burns: Burning Man Part 5
Reflecting back on my days at Burning Man, I can't help but stand in awe of how amazingly surreal (and real at the same time) it was and how my heart aches to be in that loving environment again. Burning Man changed my life. One of the things that is fascinating about the playa is… Continue reading Burning Man Changed My Life: Burning Man Part 4
Yes, I do realize that this post will have a million parts to it (in actuality I think there is only 2 or 3 left of the actual Burning Man series) and I'm sure you won't mind too much. There are two main tips that I thought I would bring up in this post before… Continue reading My Burning Man Advice: Burning Man Part 3
If you plan on being at Burning Man, I highly suggest being as involved as you possibly can. After all, Burning Man is about the community that is created within a week, and being able to contribute leads to a more fulfilling playa experience. Incoming our WDYDWYD experiment. One of the projects I had the… Continue reading Burning Man – WDYDWYD?
The first night at Burning Man was quite a miserable one. I don't think you can prepare yourself for how cold it can really get. Shaun and I were under a sleeping bag rated at 40 degrees and an additional fleece blanket. One would think that would be able to get you through the night… Continue reading Burning Man at Night: Burning Man Part 2
**Due to the amount of pictures I took, our Burning Man photos will be split up between multiple posts.** Shaun and I finally rolled out of bed to be on our way to Burning Man somewhere in the neighborhood of 6am. Honestly, I haven't seen 6am wake up calls since I left my job in… Continue reading Drive to Burning Man: Burning Man Part 1
Packing up at the Grand Canyon was relatively uneventful. We were excited to road trip to Las Vegas and move into our sweet Petite Suite at Treasure Island. I have yet to be disappointed by the scenery of the Southwest. It really never ceases to amaze me. Once you get settled into desert scenery, you… Continue reading Road Trip to Las Vegas, Nevada – Heading to Burning Man
I know it has crossed your mind. Those two little words that play around in your subconscious and it won't let you sleep at night - Career Break. It crossed mine not too long ago and I have recently left my job to not only start a new path, but to journey with my husband… Continue reading Inspiration for YOUR Career Break – Meet Plan GO!
After our amazing time in New Mexico, we made a late night road trip to Phoenix and found ourselves in Arizona for the next four days. Arizona has a lot to offer in regards to things to do and experience so making out in 4 days is quite a feat. One thing I had not… Continue reading Road Trip to Phoenix, Arizona – Heading to Burning Man
