99 – Global Munchkins

global-muchkins-1Global Munchkins!

This week on the show we have Amber from Global Muchkins! She talks about the travels her family of 7 have taken in the last couple of years, and they don’t plan on slowing down!

Amber talks about how amazing it is to watch the kids learn so much more by traveling than they ever could learn in a text book.
Traveling so often defiantly has it’s downsides, like one of the kids getting sick in Costa Rica or delayed fights.  But Amber says they take it in stride and learn through it all.

One of their favorite family activities is constantly planning where they wanna go next. And they keep a huge map of the world in a central part of their house so it’s easy to look at. Finding new places together they want to visit is so important in getting everyone on the same page. Their goal is simply to travel as much as they can with the budgets they set in place.

Once they decide where they want to go, they will usually use credit card points to pay for flights and then Amber tries to work with companies there. For example, contacting hotels or resorts to work with in exchange for letting them stay for cheap or free. Same with activities. What an awesome way to keep log of your travels and use your blog to travel!

98- 2 Travelling Tots

2-tavelling-tots2 Travelling Tots-

This week on the show we have Mark from 2 Travelling Tots talk to us about all the traveling him and his wife used to do. They didn’t want their kids to stop them from seeing the world so they don’t!

Currently they have an Bed’N’Breakfast in England they work 8-10 months of the year and the other months they set out and see a new part of the world. The next adventure is set for January 2017, they’re headed to India, Thailand and more of SouthEast Asia with their 2 boys who will be 4 & 1.

The kids do great while traveling. Mark thinks it’s because they’ve gotten used to it. The more often they go the more normal it seems. They adjust amazingly! He also talks about great ways to catalog all the places the kids have gone to, so when they’re more grown they can see all the places they’ve experience. Listen to the show to learn more!
