34 Photos of Mom & Son moments taken on the 1st 500 days of our travels.

The 1st 500 Days have been all about the experiences Miro & I have had together in the US, Mexico & Central America. We wanted to share  with you some of these special moments in time taken while we have been traveling the road of life.

We look forward to sharing with you the next 500 Days (and so on….) These are our  1st 500 Days of travel  in pictures. Miro and I left on our journey on mid 2009 and (with the exception of  one trip back to the states for Burning Man a month later) there has been no turning back! Our 1st 500 Days span from July 1, 2009 to November 13, 2010. To commemorate the 1st 500 Days, Miro and I have pulled 500 of our favorite images from our journey  to share with you. We are releasing a new batch of photos every couple of days until we’ve shared all 500 of  our favorite moments. So please do check back often. We are not professional photographers and like many, the reason we take photos is to help preserve  memories of our travels. We invite you to peek into the moments that make our travels so special to us. Enjoy!
