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.

Cuidad del Este to Asuncion
Our time in Paraguay was short, only three days and three nights long. Yet it is certainly a country that we will remember for quite a while. Paraguay is hot, very hot. After our brief…

Cusco & Machu Picchu
Our arrival to Cusco was a rather stressful affair. Entering the outskirts of the city we were met with very heavy traffic, that resulted in a very slow approach. Following that, our chosen place to…
