Welcome to our family travel blog. As many of you know we have been fortunate enough to arrange six months off to backpack throughout the globe as a family. This has been a plan in the works for the last five years with the intent to teach our children tolerance towards other cultures, bond as a family and hopefully learn some stuff along the way. Being gone for six months will obviously create some challenges as we are all sacrificing our day to day commitments (family, friends, work, sports...) but through technology we hope we can minimize any anxiety.
Six months ago I had no idea what a blog really was, why it was used or if it was related to a tweet therefore exposing our computer illiteracy. However, after some googling this appears to be the best way to keep in touch with all tuned into our adventure, without spamming those that don't want to see emails or those that could care less what we are doing. We will try our best to keep it entertaining, somewhat educational and provide a variety of views with each of us submitting our own thoughts and takes once in a while.
Feel free to pass this link on to others that may be interested and I promise we will try better on future posts.
