No home, no problem? The truth about my life abroad

The raw truth about full-time travel that Instagram doesn't show you. ✈️🛑 When we packed up our lives to travel full-time, we thought we could sustain the slow travel lifestyle indefinitely. But after 8 months on the road with our family, we’ve come to a major realization: full-time travel is not for everyone, and the hidden costs—both emotional and logistical—wear on you over time. From dealing with uncomfortable beds and missing the basic comforts of home (like your own toaster!), to balancing unconventional homeschooling schedules with Dora the Explorer and museum placards, we’ve learned what our family actually needs to thrive. In this completely transparent, opinion-based travel vlog, I’m pulling back the curtain on travel burnout, how constant moving affects young children, and why we’ve decided to end our indefinite travel journey. We are finishing our trip in Crete at the end of May and officially taking the leap to slow down, build a stable structure for our kids, and settle down in Valencia, Spain. If you are looking into a digital nomad action plan, thinking of moving abroad to Europe, or curious about traveling full-time with kids, I hope our honest pros and cons help guide your journey. 📬 FOLLOW THE JOURNEY: Subscribe for more transparent insights on moving abroad, expat reality, and our upcoming transition to life in Spain!
