Burn the Blueprint
Ever look at your life and think, how did this become the plan?
Burn the Blueprint is us talking through what it actually looks like to do life differently while you’re still in it. We’re Leyla and Trevor. We sold most of what we owned, packed our kid and two dogs into a 230-square-foot RV, left the U.S., and ended up in Belize. We figured we’d sort it out as we went. Sometimes that worked. Sometimes it really didn’t.
Most of the time we’re somewhere between this feels right and wtf have we done? Parenting in a foreign country. Money fear. Big decisions. Bigger doubts. Immigration. Identity.
Every week brings something new, from the why to the how to the reality of choosing differently.
Real Life. Real Wild.

The Long Way Out
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Buckle up babies, this is a LONG one.
Welcome to our Farewell Tour of the United States. Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas.
In this episode: our first fuel up, camping at DISNEY, figuring out the stinky slinky, Leyla learning how to record voiceovers for multimillion dollar companies from an RV closet, the most incredible Florida sendoff, our last US Christmas, and emotional family goodbyes
Also: battling semi trucks on the highways (it's a real thing), some seriously UNHINGED zoo visits, driving up a literal mountain, outrunning tornado warnings and a polar vortex, frozen pipes, poop pyramids, questionable haircuts, paperwork CHAOS, and the decision that started the clock and gave us a deadline to cross the Mexico border.
Then, a week before we leave the country--we realize that we might actually need help.
Because it turns out...we might be a little in over our heads.
