I just wanted to take a moment to say Happy Mother’s Day too all the mothers out there, and especially to my mom.  My favorite thing about my mom, and the reason I’m posting this to the world instead of just to her, is that when I told her what I was planning, this long world travel adventure, she didn’t frown and tell me that was so dangerous, or try to talk me out of it.  Her eyes went wide and she said “I want to go!”.

Now, a few seconds later she started grilling me about the details and how I was going to stay safe, and make sure I put on some weight and ….well you get the idea.

Love you mom,
