But not really that much if I just say "We moved to the USA."
Doesn't seem like much at all, really.
But it is a big deal and we've had a lot to deal with in this last year.
Moving countries. Setting up a new home - not as easy as you might think! Trying to find/make new friends. Going carless (a biggie for me - I *love* driving!). Finding ways to fill days of not-much-to-do with cheap hobbies. Losing one job. Being homeless for a month (whilst still paying a mortgage) and travelling across Canada in winter. Getting another job. Moving from one state to another.
It is a year since we landed in the US. Do we ever stop missing
friends
family
house
garden
?
We've seen so much
And experienced the highs
and lows (or at least sea levels)
of life.
It has been an interesting year....

I've enjoyed your travels and look forward to hearing more :)
Congratulations on your first year. I think an anniversary of moving to another country is definitely something to mark...I always do...11 years last March and I still miss stuff from home. I hope you get a chance to get more settled in SJ, find somewhere nice to live, and put down some little roots.
Happy One Year Anniversary and inspite of everything you have survived!!!!
Wow! Nice pics and I love that I know where that lighthouse is... I spent a lot of time in tidepools there.
Hope your next year is a bit more stable.
