Sitinee Sheffert and her husband are on a very unique family sabbatical, with a very clear goal. They recently sold their house in a Chicago suburb to spend 15 months testing out three cities: Park City, Utah; Austin, TX, and Denver, Colorado. Afterward, they’ll sit down as a family and decide where to live. Also – it’s important to note: They have 5 kids, ranging in age from 11 to 8 months. In this interview we talk about the logistics involved in an experiment like this, including how the Shefferts decided to downsize and to homeschool. We talk about the reasons why they decided to take this leap – including their desire for a less hectic pace of life and a stronger family bond. Sitinee also shares how her background as a Thai-American made the decision to move away from Chicago especially tough. Show notes at www.lisahoashi.com. Follow us! Lisa Hoashi: @lisahoashi.
