    I spent over two years living and working overseas with my husband–even gave birth to our daughter while there!

    … and I volunteered for over 3 months in an orphanage in Nepal by myself! I was only 18 and it was the first time away from home for more than a week!

    I’m bold…I pulled my 4 & 6 year old kids in their hand me down Radio Flyer Red Wagon all around the neighborhood last summer (they got to have popsickles!): we knocked on every door for blocks to invite kids to our first ever “backyard bible club”, a week of crafts, singing and stories about a missionary in India & the dark & the good characters in a few choice bible stories that read as exciting as any mystery or who dunnit book!!…the goal: for the kids to know that there is a God out there who loves them! We could be marked now as “wierdos” by our neighbors! (we’re pretty normal!)…exactly why we were scared to invite;but I followed my heart and taught my kids about courage,openess,sharing something important & important to us with others regardless of what could turn out, and respect for others’ points of view. Friends we already knew ended up coming, but no one else did (most folks we invited, we had not met before) – and it was lots of fun & meaningful with ten kids who came all week – yummy snack, prizes and games! We’ll see about whether to try this again or not this summer!

    Having kids makes one think of what’s most important, and doing this last summer was an act of love for sharing my faith from me to the neighborhood – and showing my kids this was worth the butterflies that certainly flew in my tummy at the time!!

    ….
    I moved from Wisconsin to Oregon by myself, knowing just one family in the area of Oregon where I ended up. I went out there for 1 week, interviewed for and accepted a job, searched for and found housing on craigslist, and had a lot of fun.

    …because my job forces me to be extroverted, speak to strangers and in front of audiences on a regular basis (which I secretly loath)

    I’M BOLD!
    …because I finally decided to quit that job and do something that I really love.

    Boldest thing I’ve ever done… move 2,200 miles away without knowing a soul or having a job lined up. 3 TIMES. This last time, with a 5 month old baby.

    A few years ago I moved halfway across the country on a whim. It worked out pretty well. At the very least, I got a husband out of it.

    I’M BOLD!

    Jacked in my day job 18 months ago to become a freelance writer and now my boyfriend and I have literally just moved abroad, from a rural area to a city where I know precisely one person.

    Eek!

    I’M BOLD – I took part in a naked photo shoot at 5am with 2000 strangers. It was part of the Spencer Tunick installation. Liberating is not the word!

    “I’M BOLD”
    I am decorating my living room and finally taking a chance on a bold color (even if it’s just an accent wall:)

    I’M BOLD! But really I’m not, because things like skydiving or bungee jumping make me want to poop in my pants. I guess that means the boldest thing I’ve done is ask my boss for a raise – and I got it. ;-)

    I’M BOLD! I am currently working my hobby (web design) into a new career. It’s scary, but I’d rather be doing this than anything else in the world!

    I’m {learning to be even more} BOLD!

    My husband and I moved to Madrid as ex-pats, and I’m becoming bolder as I learn Spanish, pursue how to be creative in a foreign land, make friends and love another culture, and explore Europe while we’re here!

    I’m bold! I was bold when I was younger, but not so much now I’m thinking I need to do something bold soon to shake up my life.

    I’M BOLD!

    I started dating someone who lived halfway across the country. We’ve been dating for almost two years, and are now planning our move to be in the same place.

    I’m BOLD… because I just moved to Portugal after marrying my Portuguese husband! “Two roads diverged in a wood… and I… I took the one less traveled” -Robert Frost :)
