It was April 26, 2011 when we left Homer, Alaska to begin our Epic Expedition – a road trip from Alaska to Argentina.
It’s been just about eight months on the road. How much has it cost us and how far have we driven?
In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.” - Abraham Lincoln
Have you ever woken up in the morning and actually dreaded that you had to start a new day? Whatever you had going on – job, duties or other obligations – you were not excited about facing.
I remember one particularly difficult time in our lives, that the moment I reached consciousness, I felt physically ill. Rather than the peaceful escape that sleep provided, I was awake and forced to face ‘my life’.
Life’s too short to feel that way on a regular basis.
Instead, when our ‘opportunity clock’ goes off, we should leap out of bed, enthused about the work we get to do, grateful for the people we get to spend time with, and excited about what life has to offer us.
The reality is – this won’t happen on accident. It’s not ‘default mode’ for most of us.
It’s something we’ve got to deliberately plan and intentionally execute. It take planning, execution and persistence.
But it is possible.
You can live a life that you’re excited about living. You can do work that you love to do, that you’re good at doing, and that you’re paid well for.
Through all our travels and our adventures, the one message we really hope to share with you is that life is meant to be awesome.
Don’t look at us and live vicariously. Instead, do something to make your life amazing too. Take action so that you’re the ones your friends envy and say, “Wow, you’re so lucky. I wish I could do that.”
And secretly inside you’ll say, “You can, if you really want it.”
It’s absolutely possible to get paid to do work you love to do. It’s absolutely possible to travel the world, live free from a job, and do anything else you really want to do.
We sincerely want this for you. Because it makes life meaningful. It makes life amazing. And that’s how it should be.
We really encourage you to check out the following life changing programs.
Yes, you will need to spend money, but isn’t it time to spend your money on something that will change your life? If you need to, cancel the cable. Seriously.

So you have this dream of traveling the world, sharing your escapades on a travel blog, and earning a living from it that continues to fund your adventures?
Sounds great, except for one problem. It won’t work.
“Why?” you ask. There are lots of bloggers out there who make an income from their blogs.
Yes, you are right.
That’s because they know a secret that you don’t. And unless you know what that secret is, your travel blogging efforts will be about as fruitful as the trees in the photo above.

I often receive emails from readers asking specific questions about family travel. Perhaps one of the most frequently asked questions is “How can you afford it?”
Figuring out how to pay for your family travel adventures is similar to putting a puzzle together. You have to combine many pieces, in the right order and in their correct place, before the full depiction will reveal itself.
The answer for financing can be as diverse as the individuals asking the question. Will it be an online business? Use of personal savings? The sale of your assets? International employment? The foreign service?

that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
~ Mark Twain
I just picked up my laptop, unplugged it from the cord that connected it to the outlet in the wall, and walked away.
Wow. Mobility.
That’s why I bought a laptop in the first place, because it’s mobile.
But I’d forgotten that feeling.
