Today on the show we have Dave from {The Saddleback Leather Co.} A brand he created years ago to help support his traveling habit. Before they got married both Dave and his wife suzette traveled extensively under the idea of “once you get married, traveling stops.”
Once they met and got married, they didn’t however, see any reason to quit exploring the world especially after they started having kids. Their daughter took over 38 flights in her first year alone and Dave tells us she had over 50 stamps in her first passport. This family is the perfect display to showing the world that traveling doesn’t have to stop or slow down when you have kids. In fact, it becomes a whole new and exciting experience!
Be sure to listen to the whole episode to find out why they continue to go back to Africa and why it holds such a special place in their hearts!
Advice from this Episode:
∆ Be sure to check the state department about countries you’re planning to head to. They found out later that one of they places they visited in Africa was a bit dangerous.
∆ Kids need a good example to follow. Sharing with them the idea that you can dream of going anywhere and then doing it shows them in real life to dream big!
