Our family travel adventures have taken us to 49 U.S. states, 7 Canadian provinces, and 15 countries…so far! We had absolutely no idea what an epic adventure we were in store for when we left New York City “for the summer” in 2020 and became a full time travel family.
We lived in Airbnbs full time for a year and a half. Then we renovated a 2007 Keystone Raptor to live in. And now we’re sharing what we’ve learned.
Here are just a few of our family travel adventures from the past few years:
One of the main reasons for launching this blog was to inspire and assist families who want to set off on adventures together, whether those adventures are close to home or thousands of miles away. Family travel adventures don’t have to be blowout summers in Europe. Family adventures can look like visiting a new neighborhood to try a new restaurant. Or hiking a gorgeous trail that’s just 30 minutes away. Or taking a weekend trip to that wacky museum your kid would love.
Whether you’ve landed on our blog because you’re interested in full time family travel or you’re looking for resources that make family adventures seem more accessible, we’ve got you covered. I’ve organized everything I’ve learned and shared into categories here:
