The Enlightened Globetrekker Life inspiration & travelogue from a family following their dream. Adventuring, learning, exploring, Crystal is a cultural anthropologist. Life on our terms.
(9)

A writer, world traveler, researcher, teacher, free spirit, adventurer, and dreamer. And little River is an explorer. A swimmer, a snorkeler, animal lover, recycler, iguana hunter, and coconut picker. Our global journey started in February 2013 in Cozumel, Mexico, an island paradise off the coast of eastern Mexico known for its world-class diving and illuminating sunsets. From there we moved on to

Tulum, Mexico, a jungle beach oasis on the coast of eastern Mexico in the Mayan Riviera. Tulum was a small paradise town off the beaten path of life, known for its magical cenotes and underground cave systems, bohemian lifestyle, Mayan culture, ancient ruins, and world class jungle-lined pristine beaches. Now, we journey to the other side of the world. The Marshall Islands in the South Pacific, an atoll nation with spectacular diving and a beautiful indigenous island culture, living on coconuts and fresh fish. A simple island life amidst breathtaking remote natural beauty. We have hopped on an adventure and everyday is life in the making. The beauty, mystery, culture, experiences, discoveries, explorations, challenges, life lessons, and friendships out here are truly amazing. We live close to nature, far from structure. We are learning about real life from a different perspective, engaging in global citizenship, simplicity, loving the human spirit, and our beautiful planet earth. no car, no stocks, no microwave, no TV. We cashed it all in for our dreams and happiness, some soul sunshine, a few bicycles, flip flops, each other, and incredible lessons from the road of life. We followed our dream. Join us on our inspirational adventure of casting life aside, and taking the time to be part of it. Life is beautiful. Go Explore it.
