We found each other later in life, which means we need to get busy doing all the things and exploring all the places.
To make up for lost time, we decided to become digital nomads, exploring the world and working from wherever we are. So we sold our house and are using our mortgage budget to pay for AirBNBs instead. We expect to learn a lot along the way - about the world, food, cool gadgets and each other. We thought it would be fun to write about those things, partly so we can remember them, but also just in case others can benefit from them. Let us know what you think, and if there are things you think we should be sharing let us know!

Dining without Guilt
We discovered 100 Culpa on our first trip to Porto in 2023, when the owner, Marcos, very kindly allowed us to hang out there and work after enjoying one of his delicious meals. When we returned in 2024 and had our own dedicated workspace, we still made it a point to visit 100 Culpa and introduce this lovely restaurant to others whenever we could.
If you visit Porto, be sure to stop in and say hello to Marcos and João!

Exploring Keukenhof
Просмотров 114 месяца назад
Jackie has been wanting to see the tulips at Keukenhof, since our short visit to Amsterdam in 2022. We got our chance in April 2024, when we met our friend Laura Newman there. The garden was even more magical than we could have imagined. For more on our short trip to Amsterdam, visit wanderfulwhirled.com/well-always-have-amsterdam/
Ballroom Strutting
Просмотров 464 месяца назад
While in Amsterdam, we had the chance to visit the Huis Willet-Holthuysen, a historically accurate canal house that has been converted into a museum. While it was very cool getting to see how the ultra-wealthy citizens of Amsterdam lived in the 17th century, what made this place extra special for me was the Grand March: A Historic House Through a Ballroom Lens exhibit. The proprietors partner w...

We finally get to live in our flat in Vilanova de Gaia, though only for a few months this time. We're in the process of filling it with furniture, so we'll get you another video once that's all done. #VilanovaDeGaia #PortoPortugal #WanderfulWhirled #DigitalNomadLife

This is the 11th anniversary of Yelp’s Top 100 Places to Eat, and three Reno restaurants made the list! We got to spend an afternoon with Yelp Reno’s own Michael Tragash who explained just what makes these restaurants so exceptional. No food tour is complete without coffee so we also stopped at the Coffee Bar Roastery for a conversation with their Head Roaster Find out for yourself and let us k...
Airbnb Review: South Reno
Просмотров 397 месяцев назад
We loved our Airbnb in Spanish Springs, but it was not available for the two weeks we needed a place in January. Our Spanish Springs host very kindly connected us with his sons (who I’m also distantly related to), who put us up in a very similar Airbnb in south Reno. These homes are built to be multi-generational, with a small apartment that’s connected to the main house but completely private....

A Guesthouse in the D'Andrea Area of Sparks
Просмотров 389 месяцев назад
Airbnb Review We spent a week in a guest house in the D'Andrea of Sparks. We use the word "nice" too often in this video for someplace that's as comfortable and well-appointed as this place. And the backyard is amazing. For more information, visit: www.airbnb.com/rooms/33043426 #AirbnbLife #DigitalNomadLife #WanderfulWhirled

Visiting Seattle
Просмотров 289 месяцев назад
Depending on who you ask, Seattle is known as the Emerald City to celebrate its lush forestry, but you might also hear it described as Rain City (which it did for much of the time we were there) or the Coffee Capital of the World (it’s where Starbucks got its start). Enjoy our travels throughout the Puget Sound. And if you'd like to learn more about any of these places, here's a link to our blo...
Two weeks in Salem & Portland

Our two weeks in Salem coincided with our kids' last two weeks there so we got to enjoy having them take us around to see their favorite places and we also found some of our own! #SalemOregon #PortlandOregon #PortlandTimbers #Waterfalls #DigitalNomadLife #WanderfulWhirled
Living on Easy Street
Просмотров 4910 месяцев назад
We spent a delightful week living across the street from the ocean in Brookings, Oregon. As Jackie's sister and brother-in-law own this beautiful place, we knew it would be absolutely lovely, but we were still surprised by the attention to detail. There were electrical outlets everywhere, including in the tops of tables, they had a white noise machine in the primary bedroom and even an EV charg...
Our Farm in Salem
Просмотров 9011 месяцев назад
Airbnb Review We spent two weeks in a studio apartment on an 11-acre farm in Salem, Oregon. We loved the goats and chickens, but mostly, the seven dogs that would come and visit, especially Remi, who played a mean game of fetch.

Come on man, add some more shake into that strut yo!
That's as much strut as he had. ;)
Incredible! Congrats
Thank you Kelly!
That was a refreshing perspective. Thanks for sharing
We're glad you enjoyed it!
So beautiful!
It's an amazing place.
Hey :) Any possibility of contacting Bruna and Marco directly?
Yes! Here's the link, which is also listed above: www.airbnb.com/experiences/226326
@@wanderful-whirled Thanks :) By 'directly' I meant 'not through airbnb' though; I will keep searching :)
@@melanieprusker7477 Oh, I see. We'll look and see if we have anything. :) I'm pretty sure they're on Trip Advisor too, but that's probably not helpful.
I’m sad I couldn’t join you both there!❤
We were sad too, but we'll have another chance!
So beautiful❤
So awesome to meet y’all! Enjoy the journey! 🙏🏼
It was great meeting you Candace. We hope you had a great time in Istanbul!
3 stairs upon opening the entrance door are enough to say no, let alone all the other stairs and hazards. Yes, to have to truly think and be mindful of going to the bathroom in the middle of the night, nope!
The videos of the interiors are a huge win.
We're glad you like them! Tell us what you think about Athens. :)
This is a VERY cool idea. Thanks for the quick history lesson Clay!
