By way of introduction, we are Scott & Kathy. We're many different things -- sons & daughters, sisters and brothers. Married (to each other). Early Retired. Volunteers. Citizens of the US. Permanent Residents of Canada. International Travelers. A Technologist (Scott, mostly). A Strategist (Kathy, mostly). Cruise Ship Lecturers. Formally-Trained-Chef (Scott). Self-taught Financial Manager (Kathy). We divide our time between Southern Arizona, British Columbia, and, well, everywhere else.
What's on offer at blessley.net?
Scott's been working on the website since around 1989 -- "before it was cool". Before anybody coined the term "blog". So, some of it looks a little dated while other parts are a bit more flashy, but the words & pictures are still pretty good.
We originally used the site to help friends and family figure out where we were traveling; later, as our hobbies and habits have evolved, we've added content such as our early retirement story; material on Financial Independence. Special moments in our lives.
Where can we take you just now?
- Tour our world: it's a big place, and we've seen a lot of it.
Click on a region at left to find where we've been, and whether we've written anything about it. Like what you read? Sign up for our mailing list -- no advertising, no SPAM, and we only email when there's actually something to say (we pay for this ourselves...). And you can opt-out any time if it proves "not your cup of tea".
- See where we are in the world "just now" (we update this as often as we can)
- Check our blog for shorter topics of interest. We try not to "blather" on our blog, so generally it's worth a read (we think... we hope).
- We publish our cruise ship lectures, you can find those here.
- Check out the site menu at the top of the page. It'll help you find almost anything on the site.
