Hi friends! What a time it is! Well, let’s see. Here are some life updates that have happened or started to happen when this whole thing started: We are still in Hawaii. When things started taking a turn for the worse in the West Coast, we decided to cancel our spring break trip to Oregon.Continue reading “The Mandatory Quarantine Update”

Best of Oahu: July-Dec. 2018
Hi friends! Despite the fact that the island of Oahu holds 2/3 of the population on these islands, it still has a lot of incredibly beautiful nature, and it’s not hard to become better connected to it with a little intention. Striking sunshine with astonishing color. Green, steep cliffsides and mountains. The vast Pacific surroundingContinue reading “Best of Oahu: July-Dec. 2018”
And just like that…
…2018 is (almost) gone. The past 6 months have been largely focused on transitioning to living in the US again: teaching in the US for the first time, understanding the differences in mentalities, dealing with reverse culture shock (that’ll probably not go away), paying taxes again (YUCK) and not needing to hoard or stock upContinue reading “And just like that…”
Great Experiences: Wayfarer Studio Photography
This review is coming long after we actually did this, but I didn’t want to pass the opportunity to go into some detail about our great experience getting some pictures with our friends at Wayfarer Studio Photography. Jen and Isaac Marshall, original Pacific Northwesterners, have taken their passion for telling stories in beautiful detail through picturesContinue reading “Great Experiences: Wayfarer Studio Photography”
Cambodia 2017 – Angkor
It’s a bit sad that, in the travel world, Cambodia gets reduced to the Angkor temples as the sole thing to do and see in the country, which is absolutely not true. Yet like many others, we went on the beaten path and scheduled almost a whole week in Cambodia over last Christmas just toContinue reading “Cambodia 2017 – Angkor”
A Quarter in the Life…
Hello fellow nomads (and dwellers, we love you too!) This is Ana reporting from Jeju – I guess a sick day is as good a day as any to give the good old blog some love 🙂 Maybe I need to download the WordPress app on my phone so I can update the blog moreContinue reading “A Quarter in the Life…”
First month-ish in Jeju
We have been in Jeju for about 5 weeks at this point. We finished our third week of school with Meet the Teacher Day – the school’s version of Back to School night. The previous two weeks were a whirlwind of meetings, training, laminating, decorating, unpacking, repacking, breaking, nailing, getting a little lost, being aContinue reading “First month-ish in Jeju”
New US Headquarters!
The Nomadic Gregors are proud to announce we finally have a place in the Oregon Coast to call home. Waldport, OR won us over last year when we did a month-long rental, so we are “going for it” with a little help from Dad, who will live here permanently, enjoy the weather, and pick shellsContinue reading “New US Headquarters!”
Two fun events in our last weeks in SH
Not everything during our last few weeks in Shanghai was stress and business. Two very cool things happened before we left and I’m glad we got to do both. Well, there was one where it was only me, but it was kind of a big deal. My student teaching seniors graduated. Not that I didn’tContinue reading “Two fun events in our last weeks in SH”
Last weeks in Shanghai
Hi y’all!!!!! We, the Nomadic Gregors, lived in China for 3 years and lived to tell the tale without anything super scary happening to us (especially on the food department, haha!) We are now in the Land of the VPN Free, more specifically in the beautiful Evergreen State, enjoying some down time (and doggies!!!) andContinue reading “Last weeks in Shanghai”
