My Take on the Book
My kids have always put together bucket lists, so watching a family that has taken this to the next level was always something that they loved, too. What I love is that the family empowers their kids to live largely, and as a part of this, they are also teaching their kids to live with courage, live their lives through their experiences, and not let anything hold them back. While this family has some ability to be mobile while others who read may not, the concept of having dreams and making them happen is inspirational. The book has many relatable tips about traveling, especially traveling with kids. At the same time, the book also has a section on traveling together as a couple, which was a nice add-in. All-in-all this is a book that offers practical and relatable tips that you can use no matter where you are traveling, but also will give you ideas about your next trip, too!
