Home...

Greetings from Baja, Mexico!  I feel at home - in heaven, back at one of my favorite places on earth, in the desert, on the Pacific, facing west and able to look for the green flash every sunset.


We will be in Baja for three weeks:  one week in a beautiful house on the beach of the west coast of Baja in the artsy town of Todos Santos, chilling out and having a "rest stop"; and two weeks in a villa in the city of La Paz on the bay side of Baja, where we will be kayaking and scuba diving.

I'm excited about these two stops because they're in Baja, but also because the stops are at least a week long and because they're homes, with kitchens and stereos and space for each of us to have a little space and solitude - all things we like and have been missing.


Like the homes we stayed in while in Bali and Phnom Penh, we are staying in this house (as well as one in Oaxaca City and one in Mexico City, both a little later during our two month stay in Mexico) through swaps for the little holiday flat we have in the Yucatan.  It's a great way to save money - leverage your home for one in another location.  We arranged a couple of our house swaps through friends of friends, but arranged the others through a website (www.homeexchange.com).  It's a great way to travel economically!
