Hi, Tanya. I just had to write when I saw that you are planning to do the same thing my dh and I are - selling out and hitting the road. I first started exploring unschooling in response to our dream (our dd is 4). Unfortunately, we'll be another year getting things in order and then will probably start small, with month long trips and then a return home. Can you imagine a better way to teach our kids about their country?

I truly envy someone with the means to pack it all in and just go! (We could
not live w/o an income) I have often suggested to Darin that he become a
truck driver, we sell all our stuff, exchange the pc for a laptop and go! If
the kids and I got tired of riding for a while we could rent a place for a
month or so, every time in a different location. Wouldn't that be fun! Darin
just gives me a funny look and wonders aloud where I get these ideas. I think
it would be a blast! Like modern day nomads. :::sigh:::

that is why we will be doing mini trips this year, and taking the summer
break when dh won't be working or teaching to travel. We wouldn't be able
to afford it otherwise. I can't believe we're already mapping out places we
want to go!

Tanya, Where in WVa are you? I am moving to Jefferson county sometime next
year. We just bought some land and we're building a new house.
