backpack living

I may be back in the States, but my lifestyle has hardly changed from
the globe-trottin' days. We're still looking for jobs, still don't
have any clear place to settle, still staying with friends and family.
So we're also still effectively living out of backpacks (although
more than one, since we have a car to carry our stuff around with
us). Time still seems to fly by and it seems like I'm too busy to get
anything done, even though I'm not really doing anything. Such are
the problems of constant traveling. And even though now we're staying
in some spots much longer than we ever did since leaving New Zealand
(three nights in one spot was a looong stop) we're still living the
nomadic lifestyle.
The main difference is when we were cruising around the world, we
generally had some idea of where our next stop would be, even if we
didn't know what we'd do when we got there. Right now, we're not even
sure of the next destination.
