Learn More About Candidate Mike Calpino

Peregrine is Latin for 'wanderer' or 'nomad'. It is the name of this site for two reasons. The first is because our family is embarking on a lifestyle that will be the essence of 'peregrine', we are becoming cruisers. The second is because the name of the vehicle for our lifestyle, a sixty foot brig, is named 'Peregrine'.

Our journey to this point is a combination of a lot of factors. Some of them include a desire to live life and do all the things people usually wait until retirement to do and do them with our children. We enjoy travel and seeing new places. We want to drop out of our consumer driven society and simplify life. We want to raise our children in a less threatening environment and with an appreciation for other peoples and cultures. We desire the time to broaden our horizons, develop our talents, learn new skills and spend time with each other and whatever new friends we make along the way. Finally, and most importantly, is a recognition that by following the nomadic pattern of most of the people in the Bible spiritual development will reach a completely different level.

This site is designed to chronicle our journey as a family as we make the transition from a land bound family immersed in western culture to nomadic world travelers. You are welcome to browse and comment and I hope you will find something here that will assist you on this wonderful journey called life.
