Go Where It's Warm
Going where the climate suits our clothes!
It’s 4:00pm on a Thursday. Everything we own is jammed into about 8 suitcases, our dogs are at doggy daycare tiring themselves out (hopefully), I’m unemployed for the first time since I was 16, and I’m having a day beer which I deserve after cleaning the heck out of our rental for our walkthrough.
I’ve never found a flatworm of any kind diving in Bonaire before this trip. I was looking at a juvi spotted drum (love them!) and right next to it was the flatworm! So excited! We only had a GoPro with us but we still managed to get some decent footage of it. (video and, Read More
With our visa paperwork nearly done it’s time to find a place to live. At first we thought we’d find a place remotely but that’s proven to be a bit more difficult than expected. Why? Well, a few reasons…
I woke up this morning to a work friend calling me at 7:30am on a Monday which is weird. I talk to this person all the time but not usually first thing in the morning unless something is wrong. But nothing was wrong.
If you’ve thought about moving to Bonaire you’re probably curious about the paperwork involved in legally making the move. I know I was and it was hard to find a first hand account of the process.

We just got back from another wonderful week on Bonaire! I can’t say enough good things about the diving there. It’s as easy or as hard as you want it to be. I love not having to adhere to a schedule too. Total freedom! We’ve started the paperwork for our move & with any, Read More
We finally found our spot! We’ve been planning to leave the states for years but haven’t found the place that feels like “home.” The place where it just feels right to be there, until Bonaire.
We love macro life and spend most of our time underwater looking for the tiniest of creatures. Finding nudibranchs and sea slugs is a highlight of any dive. They’re absolutely gorgeous with each one having its own colorful, intricate design like someone painstakingly hand-painted each one to make it just right.
We just returned from our 3rd trip in 15 months to Bonaire and it was fantastic! We’ve already booked another trip for March. At this point, a huge part of our repeat visits is to solidify that it’s our “spot”, at least our next spot. Nowhere is forever at this point. Bonaire’s shore diving, Read More
We’ve been to Bonaire twice in the past year and we’re heading back in December. As of now, it’s definitely our spot. It’s got everything we want in our next home. It feels good knowing what’s next even if we’re not totally sure on the timing of it.
