Blog posts with a twist…
Our blog posts will detail the emotions, relationships and experiences we live as a family living on the road.
Travelling like we do is a way of life, not simply an extended vacation.
As such, the pace of travel is very different to a usual trip away.
The individual needs of each of us must be recognised and met, otherwise our day-to-day life simply will not work.
The blog details our physical journey from place to place, but also our own personal and familiar journey’s along the way.

A Week In The Heat (Part 2 of 2)
Leaving Paraguay for North Argentina the following day gave us hope that we would be leaving this insufferable heat. Salta, our next desired destination, sat over 1,150m above sea level, and enjoyed temperate climates. However,…

A Week In The Heat (Part 1 of 2)
As we travelled through Argentina, we met many wonderful people. They were usually very curious about our trip; how were we traveling, where we had been, what we had seen etc. They would usually also…

A Very Special Visitor

Uruguay – A Very Pleasant Surprise (Part 1 of 2)
If I am being truly honest, Uruguay was never high on my travel-priority list. Having previously visited the continent twice prior to this trip, South America’s 3rd smallest country never once crossed my mind as…
