Long Term Family Travel Is More Accessible Than You Think
Travel is the best education you can give your children, and long term travel is more accessible than you might think. If you've been dreaming of quitting your job and heading out with your family to see the world, maybe it's time to put that dream into practice. You can take your children to explore the Egyptian pyramids, discover the Taj Majal, and maybe even make it to Timbuktu!
But then reality pulls you back - you need to be a 'responsible' parent and work 9 - 5 and take the kids to soccer practice in the evenings, Or do you really? Traveling as a family can be a fantastic experience for all members of the family - regardless of the age. For parents, the opportunity to spend time with your children rather than behind a desk is a gift. For children, the opportunity to see the world and spend their short childhood with their parents is the best gift any parent can give them.
While it may appear that long term family travel is way beyond your budget, you might be surprised to find out just how affordable it really is. We, as a family of four, are currently traveling the world on our bicycles for less than $20,000 per year. We live well on about $1500 per month. We fund our travels on rent from our house, interest on our retirement account, and our website.
If you would like to ditch the normal, expected route through life to make your own path, you can do it. Take some time to research options and figure out how you, too, can become a nomadic family. There are as many ways to do it as there are people wanting to do it. Let your dreams come to life today!
