With a heavy heart, I must leave Mexico and return to the U.S. Though I was working on several options to keep me here, I

Marcus Daye was born in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, to parents who were both in their second marriage. His family was not your typical family. With eight marriages and over twenty children involved somehow, he is an only child. By the time he left high school, the third high school in three states, he had moved out of state five times. With the insatiable curiosity instilled in him by his mother and the desire to know what he does not know; he took the road less traveled often. From living out of a suitcase as part of a door-to-door magazine sales crew to working on a traveling wagon train, a Fraternity House, to a stint as Food and Beverage Director of a Renaissance Festival. After jumping into the food service industry, he spent 25 years moving from one establishment to another, learning all he could from anyone who would teach. All the while working with friends and relatives in various odd jobs to feed that hunger to know more. After suffering from a high blood sugar incident and the resulting neuropathy, he changed careers to be a Skip Tracer and an Unsafe Building Inspector, each for six years. He became a minimalist and a virtual hermit seemingly overnight. Unhappy with the state of the union and difficulties adjusting to the rising cost of living and lower wages, he decided to leave the country. After five years of a spartan lifestyle, he had saved the money to make it happen. After countless hours of online research, the decision to head to Southern Mexico with its rich history and culture was made. Unfortunately, COVID put the kibosh on Plan A. Doing volunteer work for eco-friendly projects in this part of the world. Plan B was to be a digital nomad. Unfortunately, I have yet to live in a location that has strong enough Wi-Fi to allow that to happen. My Plan C, the one I am on now, was intended to supplement Plan A or B. Presenting my love of hiking, photography, and good food on social media. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Could it be I was destined to be where I am right now?
