The Beginning.....

"There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth... 
                not going all the way, and not starting." -G. Siddharta
 
I have been meaning to start an "official blog" for some while now, and have decided-
that time is and must be now. 

To get started: I am Krystle; daughter of Robert and Janet, wife of Joshua, and a woman wholly after adventure. Born in England in 1985 and brought to the US at age 9, I have lived amongst both worlds and never quite figured out which of these was mine or me or where I truly belonged.
That is where the rest of this world comes into the picture.
At 13 I traveled to Southern Africa and visited a foreign land that sparked such a familiar and homely feeling in me, I realized that home, was exploring.
Caskie Stinnett once said, "I travel a lot; I hate my life being disrupted by routine."
That has been my heart's song ever since. 
I have been to 25+ countries in the last 22 years and the thirst for culture, pilgrimage, and global understanding has only intensified each leg of the journey.
More than my love for new sights, sounds, cities, slums, trains, and seas, I  am surely a humanist to the core. Completely enamored by people; their diverse life stories and ethnic backgrounds, daily I am in search of truth and tale in each face I come across.

My husband Josh was born to Mike and Ruby in 1984 and was raised in Florida. 
Josh has been studying and playing music for over 10 years. Beginning with classical piano, he spent 4 years with a touring choir, and has since learned guitar and drums. 
His passion is to bring music with a positive message for kids and to be a role model to those who are considered unreachable.
He is currently signed to Rise Records and tours with his band, Burden of a Day.
Welcome to our world.
