I’ve been reading An Embarrassment of Mangoes by Ann Vanderhoof, a travel memoir about a couple who “leaves it all behind” to sail around the Caribbean for two years.

Today’s guest post is from Dee at Travel and Travails.  I’m always talking about how full-time travel is possible for anyone.  Sometimes, that’s just not the case.  An overlooked side of family travel… I’m curious to hear your comments. I follow Christine and Almost Fearless with some jealousy. I envy the idea of being location [...]
