Our First Year: Everywhere

Emily and Eric got married on June 27, 2010 and leave for a year of travel on July 13th. This is the story of their traveling, working online, first year of marriage adventure through the Mediterranean, Southwest and Southeast Asia.

The Honeymoon Is Over

Today we end our seven night stay at Hotel Timo, our all-inclusive beach resort. Our feelings are mixed. We will miss the all inclusive, do nothing but relax, no responsibility, no dealing with anything feel of the past week. There’s nothing like sleeping in, having fantastic meals, lounging at the beach and pool and having absolutely nowhere to be.

At the same time, the idea of getting out into the “real world” is exciting and we can’t wait to get our hands into the texture and life of this interesting culture. Antalya, where we are about to head, is a larger city with much going on while still being a Mediterranean beach location. The best of all worlds.

So we are off. Back to guest houses and street food. Back to what we know best and where the adventure lies.

Pictured below – our first friends on the journey – Eugene and Christina from Russia who speak great English. We think Eugene resembles Dana Carvey especially when he talks.
