I should first state that I have not taken a trip around the world with my children, but it is something that I would like to do. Possibly you want to do the same thing and we can figure this out together. I believe the first step is making the decision to take such an undertaking and fully commit to the idea. After making that decision, being open to the fact that your original plans will change and staying open to receiving the gifts and opportunities the universe will provide when you are committed to your decision. If this were easy, more people would do it, and the combination of possibilities is infinite for a successful journey. Everyone brings a different skill set and pool of resources to pull from in order to make this happen. Networking, training and career open all sorts of doors for us and navigating that path is what requires your attention.

Where Should We Start....
At the beginning of course. The starting line is the decision to traveling the planet, unplugging from everything you know and are comfortable with and diving into the abyss of the unknown. My advice here is to trust the TAO, or whatever works for you. Believe that you are capable of greatness and trust that when you believe things will just happen. I know this is crazy but it has worked for everything else in my life. Everything in the physical world started as an idea in the non-physical place in our mind, this is the place that we dream from. Fear, anxiety, guilt and negativity from the Nay-Sayers are your only obstacles. But what about money? That is fear, not that it isn't a question that needs to be addressed but it shouldn't be a determining factor on whether your adventure will happen. Except that we don't know when we will go but trust that if you put the work in, it is a matter of where you will start not if.
Imagine....
Walking on the Great Wall of China, staring up at Mount Everest, hiking through the ruins of Machu Picchu. You have to first picture it in your mind and envision yourself there. I think about these places all the time and often wonder what it would be like to be there. To swim in the ocean in Thailand, or to see the flying flags of Bhutan, are experiences that I hope to have and to share with my children. We look at magazines or articles on the internet and think that these places are unreachable. They aren't out of our grasp they just require a little planning.
