Introduction Some of my favorite family vacations when I was little were when my parents would scrounge up a few dollars and we would take a drive up to the Catskill Mountains to stay at a cheesy truck-stop motel for the weekend. We would have so much fun in those tacky tourist towns, filling our bellies with junky carnival food and participating in corny activities like going to a haunted house. We discovered our most treasured family moments sharing in these spontaneous silly experiences. Since meeting my husband, Scott, and creating a family of my own, I find that my parents' whimsical view on life has been deeply engrained into my own visions about living. Life is meant to be enjoyed today. If you have picked up this book, it means you have a spark of interest in living an extraordinary life. You are curious about existing outside the proverbial box and you are ready to take the first step towards living your dreams. My intention for this book is to inspire people to live beyond their own self-created limits and to venture outside the boundaries of the norm, because in that space magic exists. How do I know this? I know this because I experienced magic first-hand when my family of three took off for one year to travel around the globe. Through our own personal journey, I have developed this guide to walk you, step-by-step, along the path of manifesting your dream of world travel. Why? It's simple. I want to share the magic. This guide is your ticket to living your own magnificent story. Don't fear. I will hold your hand throughout the whole process as we maneuver through the stages of world travel manifestation. Even better, you will learn from all the many hilarious mistakes we made along the way so you can develop plenty of confidence in your own world travel capabilities. If we can do it, you can do it too! It doesn't matter what life situation you are in, world travel is for EVERYBODY. Your financial state, relationship status, job position and family stage have no bearing on your ability to travel the globe in style. All you need is to ignite your imagination and make your dream a reality. So, let's dive in!
