Becoming a Minimalist is a Process
Okay. So I’ll admit I’m a bit of a procrastinator. The past two days I’ve been scrambling to get all last minute preparations complete for my first stop on my around the world tour, Plano, TX (holidays with the family).

The Lies Society Tells Us.
As you know from my (almost) 3 Month blog update which was just a few weeks ago I decided to refocus Where is Jenny to be more about living a freedom lifestyle than only being travel-centric.
