Ostrolenk speaks with Chris and Holly Santillo, parents of the Five Backpacks Family (https://fivebackpacks.family/). Chris and Holly are soon to journey around the world with their three children, traveling through the U.S., Russia, Asia and elsewhere. Their decision arose from a desire to world school themselves and their children, learning about other cultures and better understanding themselves and the world in which they live. The Santillos discuss how they planned for this trip and how they aim to balance spontaneity and planning. They hope that this journey will inform how they live when they return. The Santillo family sets off on their journey on Monday, April 22. To learn more about them and follow their adventure, visit their blog at https://fivebackpacks.family/.
