Myself and
in Ayutthaya
Greetings, my fellow Steemians! It's been a while since I've had a chance to post and it's because myself and the lovely
It's been a busy two weeks as we settle into our new way of life where we are our own bosses and get to choose when and what to work on. So far we've been making decent dollar doing transcription work and I'm applying for online teaching gigs to supplement that. There's also a copywriting opportunity on the horizon, and of course, there's Steemit!
Keep an eye out as I will be posting about how viable the digital nomad life is for us.

What to expect going forward
Now that I'm back to my blogging ways you can expect regular updates of all the stuff we get up to on our adventure. Coming soon will be photos of our trip to Ayutthaya last Sunday. It involves bicycles, ruins, Buddha's and beer with ice in it.
We're headig to a famous river market about 100km out of Bangkok this coming Sunday, so expect pictures and tales from that. You can also keep an eye out for the next stage of the adventure when we head off to Hanoi, Vietnam on the 25th of July!
