This is the very first time Jason & I have needed to furnish a place. Thank goodness for giveaways from friends & family, plus garage sales, thrift stores and craigslist!

Adventures of a tall girl married to a short boy
How we got here ... with a couple babies!
We first met in 2006. We'd both quit our jobs and gotten rid of nearly all our possessions to join the Peace Corps. We were headed to the Kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific. We thought we were prepared for whatever lay ahead, but neither of us had a clue.
In just over 10 months, we were MARRIED!
Since then our adventures have included:
- a year in New York City, living in a Harlem brownstone apartment
- going off-the-grid & into a tent-cabin on tiny Angaur island in Palau
- living with a bunch of teenagers in Shanghai, China while working as dormitory parents
- off-the-grid again & into a barn on 400 forested acres in Vermont
- at the base of volcanos in beautiful Panajachel, Guatemala
- 3 years in North Idaho working on a new career path
And now post career change, we find ourselves in S. Dakota (of all places!!!)
We love to experience this great big world and hope you will join us for the journey!
-- Jason and Carrie

Carrie-
I am so excited. Yes owning your own slice of America causes you to grow up quickly. I continue to marvel at your love and zest for life's blessings and the gratitude that you have for what you have. It is so wonderful to have watched and stayed in touch with your journey!
