One of the biggest struggles parents face is trying to get kids to eat healthy food. We experience this regularly in my family as we travel to different parts of the world. Granted, you can find restaurants anywhere that have kid-friendly food like chicken nuggets, little pizzas, macaroni and cheese, or spaghetti. And if you're cooking at home, you can tailor the food to your childrens' tastes. Bu... Read More

I'm pleased to announce that thanks to the free software at preyproject.com, and the efforts of the OIJ (Costa Rican FBI), the local police, and some good friends, I now have one of my Macbook Pros that was stolen a couple weeks ago! So, what happened? Here's the scoop. [caption id="attachment_4582" align="alignright" width="150" caption="Guy at work with my... Read More

We just got back from a short trip to Costa Rica's Caribbean side. I think it's one of the most beautiful parts of the country, and Puerto Viejo has some of the best food. While we were out enjoying this food one night, the vacation rental we were staying at got broken into. ... Read More

Just a few weeks ago, my third daughter, Aysia Mae was born! She's a sweet addition to our family, and definitely a mama's girl. Sometimes she'll let me hold her without crying, but she doesn't like being away from her mom for long. Everything went perfectly with the birth, which we did in our home bathtub with a doctor and midwife present. Home births aren't common in Costa Rica, but we're so ... Read More

I usually don't dedicate an entire blog post to a book review unless I am extremely impressed with the book. In the case of Thomas Kida's Don't Believe Everything You Think: The 6 Basic Mistakes We Make in Thinking, "impressed" is defin... Read More

I've put off reading Chris Guillebeau's book, The Art of Non-Conformity, for far too long. I won a copy of the book in a writing contest several months ago, and I figured now would be a good time to finish it, so I don't have to carry it around to our next location. Fortunately, this book was interesting enough... Read More

Recently, I've been entertaining the idea of starting up a farm. For an entrepreneur with a successful on-line business, you might wonder why I'd want to consider tying myself down to a location-dependent business in an industry I know almost nothing about, especially when I said I plan to be leaving Costa Rica later this year. I have two main reasons: I believe it's wise to have multi... Read More

Two years ago, I wrote a blog post entitled How I Spend My Time. I tracked what I was doing every minute of every day for one whole week, to help me visualize how much time I was spending on what really mattered to me. Now that we've made the move abroad, my businesses are more automated than ever, and I'm more used to my 4-hou... Read More

We spent the last week in Salt Lake City, visiting our family and friends who live there. It was great to see so many of our loved ones, and have a chance to talk with them in person. Thanks to everyone for your hospitality! We arrived the day after a big snowstorm, so the kids enjoyed playing in the snow (in their dresses and flip flops), and we made a little snowman and had a short snowball f... Read More

I held onto the hope of having a boy as long as I could, but the doctor said it's time to let it go - this one is definitely going to be a girl. So, in June, we'll be a family of five: four girls, and one boy (me). ... Read More
