The three most popular excuses people have for not traveling?

1. Lack of time


2. Lack of money


3. Lack of children

Just kidding about that last one!

Today, we'll look at the real excuse #3: I can't go because I have kids!

When I was in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, I interviewed the parents behind Growing Up Without Borders.

For the last few years, they are systematically visiting every country in the world with their three daughters!

That's right! 

They've been traveling with them since they were 5, 7, and 9 years old!

Now they're 9, 12, and 14 years old.

Tyler & Chantal Patton have three daughters Julia, Angelique, & Chloe.

They've been to nearly 100 countries in the last few years!

Listen to find out:

• What did they do right?


• What did they do wrong?


• Why should you do the opposite of what everyone else is doing?


• What's this biggest travel bargain they ever had?


• How does Tyler find such travel bargains?


• How does travel impact a child's development?

Promoting Health Access Sumbawa

One of WanderLearn's top patrons, Kathy Kennedy Enger, asked me to draw attention to Health Access Sumbawa. I am happy to promote this remarkable nonprofit. In 2014, Jack Kennedy founded the organization to bring malaria control and healthcare to remote, impoverished communities. It started on the remote island of Sumbawa, Indonesia. Since then, it's expanded thanks to generous donations. Visit their website to learn more and to donate: https://healthaccesssumbawa.org
