Bigtripblog.com is the site accompanying our one year (plus or minus a few months) trip around the world. This is where our friends, family, and anyone else can follow us as we embark on the adventure of a lifetime. It’s an opportunity for us to share our experiences on the web, using Valerie’s great photography skills and my love for all things digital.

To the left is a list of pages with different information about how we’ve set up this site. We hope you find it easy to navigate and of course, extremely interesting and entertaining. Please feel free to add to bigtripblog.com by commenting on any of the posts, or sending us a message directly.

Help us out!

We maintain this site because we want to, but it does cost us a little money. We have set up a donations page, and you’ll notice that all pages except for the entry page have some ads. We have affiliate accounts with several companies, and if you click on their ads through our page and make a purchase, a tiny percentage of that will go to us and help fund our travels. Everybody wins!
