Is It Weird To Travel Alone?

Janice Waugh saw an unusual question in the Google search terms that led people to her blog, Solo Traveler: Is it weird to travel solo? The question caught my attention because more than a few people heading off on longer trips are going solo. Planning to spend a year or two in another country, or to just travel when the mood strikes you? There’s a chance that you might have a significant other interested in traveling with you, but it’s equally likely that you’re going it alone.

Working In Transit: Where did my routine go?

One of the things I like about picking up and moving to a new place for a long period of time is the fact that I can build new routines for work. Sure, those routines won’t be identicial from place to place but I still know exactly when all my work is going to get done. Right now, I’m in the middle of a four-day trip to Las Vegas. While I’m having fun, I’ve definitely noticed the lack of routine.

The Book: Current Status

Working Your Way Around the World is progressing nicely. I turned in Chapter 5 over the weekend, putting me about halfway through writing the manuscript.

I’m having an incredible time interviewing people for this book. I’ve heard about some of the most amazing trips — and how women have taken their work with them, as well as their families. I can’t wait to share all these great stories with you.

I am still looking for sources for the last couple of chapters, mostly focusing on women who have built businesses that travel with them and how women balance travel, work and family. If you’ve got a story to share, please let me know.
