My eighth grade English teacher would always reference that quote that says something about how vulgarity is the crutch of the inarticulate, so my apologies to her. Usually, she’s correct. This particular xkcd comic has stuck in my mind since I first saw it. My focus on this site will be to provide you with little moments of visual or literary information as you refresh your inbox and jump between Firefox tabs at the job that’s killing your soul. Traveling and living abroad is not for everyone, but we’re beyond convinced that it’s definitely for some that are still afraid of taking the plunge. As Lynn wrote, make some plans before you’re ready. You’ll be amazed at how you can impress yourself.  We hope to bring you practical info here, but also some ephemeral inspiration.
