Tipi living during an Indian Summer

Transitions from the academic realm into the "real" are often intimidating. Recently, we had the option of living in a Convent for a security service, a short-let in Edinburgh, or a tipi on a small holding. We thought about the various locations, considered the pros and cons of each, and decided on the tipi lifestyle. It made sense, after living a year in the farmhouse and never tending to livestock, to come help out on the friend's farm while living on their land. This way we get the experience of farm community living, the enjoyment of the late summer weather, and the company of friends before leaving for the States. Have a look on the flickr page, as I will have posted some photos of our new surroundings.

Although life in the pastoral setting is enjoyable, I have still been diligently seeking out future opportunities in hopes to find the next big thing.
