What I did in 2025, mostly from bed
Many of you here signed up for Legal Nomads in its early days, back when it was a blog about my round-the-world adventures. Long before it morphed into a business, and certainly well before my life changed dramatically eight years ago. When I first quit my job to travel, the panic of the not-knowing would […]

Work, Gratitude, and the Challenge of the Present Moment
I’m late to my own party, but April 1, 2020 marked twelve years since I quit my job as a lawyer to travel the world. By now you guys know the drill: each year I wrote an annual update post for April 1st, about my state of mind and the state of my business. I’d […]
A Patreon, a New Newsletter, and a Site Redesign
It’s been a long while since I’ve written on Legal Nomads. When people ask how I’m doing, I’ve taken to saying, “I’m hanging in as best as I can.” What else can we all do? These are pretty unusual, extreme times, and honestly I’m just impressed with anyone who makes it through each day without […]
3 Years Later, A Surprising Reunion with Something Important
A few weeks into December, I received a message in my “requests” folder on Facebook. I didn’t know it at the time, since it was buried in Facebook purgatory. It was only a month later that I thought to check my requests inbox. I found the following message. Hi, you don’t know me, but we […]
A long overdue update: Patreon, newsletter, and more
It’s been awhile, and though I do share tidbits more frequently on social media and via my newsletter, I wanted to do a full write up of what has been going on. I haven’t published a blog post since April, so this is a long overdue update. It shares some exciting professional news, but also […]
My Big Updates from a Year of Change
When I started Legal Nomads as a blog in 2008, I did so so that friends and family could follow me after I quit my job as a lawyer to travel the world for one year. Of course, one year turned into many—you all know the story by now. When the site began to grow […]
The Best Books of 2022
I know, I know. After not posting for a year, I’m on a roll. Initially, I was going to include this post in my 2022 gift guide, but the gift guide got too long and I thought it was best to split them up into two. Given how much I love reading, I wanted to […]
A Celiac’s Gluten Free Guide to Ottawa
I have now spent two years in the National Capital Region, with one year in Aylmer in Quebec, and one year in Ottawa. While this gluten free guide focuses primarily on Ottawa, I’ve included a few spots ‘across the river’ on the Quebec side, as there are some celiac-friendly treats there that aren’t to be […]
The Legal Nomads Holiday Gift Guide
I did my first ever holiday gift guide for travelers a few years ago, which was fun to compile. Readers seemed to enjoy the various items, and I was happy to share some of the products that accompanied me on the road. Now that my life is a little different – something all of you […]
