Why?
Rarely do the stars align to undertake these sorts of adventures; we're firm believers that when they do, one has to snaffle the opportunity, before it quietly slinks away into the mist of indecision, excuses and nervousness - as opportunities often do.
​
Such an alignment has just fallen into place for us - Charlie has liberated himself from his job, the boys are at a juncture where a term out of school (being home-schooled by us, of course...) won't impact their education, and Nina - being self-employed - can dictate the terms of her own shackles.
​
Charlie & Nina had a similar moment 15 years ago, which led to a 13-month overland trip through Europe and Asia and back (see here). Now that we have two boys, a year-plus long trip might be too ambitious, but we've carved out four and a half months or so, making judicious use of the summer term.
​
Kindness, tolerance, understanding, exploring, adventure and family are important to us. What better way to educate ourselves and our boys than by throwing us all into a host of new cultures, people and situations?
