This website began as a hobby of a twenty-something Canadian (yours truly) with an avid desire to travel on the cheap, and share those opportunities with others. As life became busier, I invited a guest blogger - David from California - to become a permanent partner. I managed the behind-the-scenes marketing and administration, while he took over managing content. As my career developed and the demands of family life increased as I entered my thirties, I no longer had as much time to devote to the blog, so I decided to sell ownership of the blog to David, who would receive a 75% share for the day-to-day operations, while I would continue to receive a 25% share in royalties.
At the end of 2014, David and I decided to mutually end our business relationship - no hard feelings - and close the blog permanently. As much as I'd like to continue blogging in his absence, I am in a very different season of life than I was in 2008, and it would be impossible for me to continue to provide content to you, our readers, moving forward.
I thank each and every one of you for your diligent readership over the years, and for making the blog such a success! It's been a good run, and we are happy to have you tag along for the ride. We hope you've learned a lot, and had plenty of (free) good night's rest over the years. THANK YOU - without you, the blog would have been nothing.
