Nomadic MidLife (Andy & Sherry Chidwick)

We sold everything so we can wander the world as international nomads, trading our old jobs as high school teachers for our new role as students of the world. Andy makes videos on YouTube and Sherry writes a weekly blog on Substack. Let's connect!

Hi! We're Andy & Sherry, two middle-aged kids who sold or gave away nearly everything so we can wander the world as nomads. We love adventure, laughter, our LGBTQ+ adult children, street food, and Jesus. We are not so fond of consumerism, fake faith, or putting profit over people. Let's connect!
Caravanning in Baja with new and new-ish friends. Life is goooood.

Cheesy tourist attractions amuse us. But usually, they don't make Walter look like a Tonka Truck. 😂

In case you need some encouragement to get out there and explore the world. 😉

We love to wander scenic roads. Hwy 29 in the far SE corner of Washington is so cool, winding down into a deep canyon then back out again. The Moki Dugway near Monument Valley makes crazy steep cutbacks down the side of a mesa. What else? Tell me about the coolest stretches of road you've driven.

Last year about this time, we wandered around that old abandoned water park off the freeway between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Crazy cool. Have you seen it? What other #abandonedplaces have you explored?

Celebrating with Zambia 🇿🇲 tonight as the Orlando Pride have won the NWSL Championship with Zambian superstar Barbra Banda scoring the winning goal ⚽ and being named MVP. Wishing we were back there again to celebrate with our friends and family. Have you ever been to Zambia? 🇿🇲

WEIRD PLACES WE'VE STUMBLED UPON IN OUR NOMADIC WANDERINGS:

The Blue Banana coffee kiosk in Lostine, Oregon, USA, near Wallowa Lake (which, incidentally, looks like a blue banana on the map). Coolest coffee shop ever. Free library, and you can sip your beverage inside that VW's back seat.
