The beginning of the end

Wow, two blog posts in one day - this is not the new normal, don't worry!

While we had planned to continue vagabonding into the winter, and then perhaps find work elsewhere in Europe next year, the plans have changed and I think it's making us savor each of our adventures here even more. Eric has a great opportunity to take a role with a company in Arizona starting in January, so we will be wrapping up our European travels mid-November when we head home for Thanksgiving.

Lots to do between now and then, of course...finding a house and some cars and a job for me are all near the top of the list. Probably not surprising, but getting a mortgage and car loans when you're technically unemployed is a bit more challenging :)

While we're super excited about how much good Mexican food we'll get to eat, it will be tough to continue being far away from family and friends. But we'll have a guest room (and a pool, of course) so visitors will be welcome any time. We understand we'll have to come 'up north' to see any of you during the summer, though - somehow managed to find a place even hotter than southern Spain!
