After all the excitment of treking across Europe, we've settled down with our new hosts Elke and Rene in Austria. Three years ago, which is actually around the same time we moved to NY, they moved out to the countryside to live more sustainably and are totally rocking it. Their little farm includes a whole flock of turkeys, a coop full of chickens,...
Last week we came again to another point in our trip where we had to make another big journey across Europe. Thankfully we were a bit more prepared this time and were able to trek from West Dorset in England to near St. Pölten in Austria without any major hassles and without spending major money.

For most of the last four weeks we've been charged with petting puppies and only two weeks of that time did we have any responsibility beyond that (feeding the puppies). So I guess this excuse is that we were experiencing a very rare vacation...
