Begin at the beginning….

March 5, 2012 by EM

Where to begin? Always begin at the beginning...This blog was born out of countless hours of internet searching for people's experiences of walking away from the 9-5 grind and moving somewhere awesome and doing amazing things. Okay, yeah, there are some blogs like that online. And they're great, and inspiring, and good reads so check them out. But they don't really tell you how they did it.
