Location Independent, Solopreneur, Diginomad....Freedom!
Things are gradually changing here at World Travel Family, our blogs ( there are now 6, if you count Boo’s) are starting to follow a new course.
I thought I’d share with you what’s going on, maybe you’ll take inspiration from our experiences, maybe you can pick up a few tips, maybe you can tell us

Best Books For Scuba Divers
Always look cool. That’s the first rule of diving as taught to me by my instructor in Australia too many years ago.
When the diver in your life isn’t looking cool in a wetsuit or carrying tanks, help them look cool by reading a great book.
These are some of our favourites, recommended by my husband

12 Ways to Travel for Free
Travel doesn’t have to be expensive.
We all know the old mantra, travel is cheaper than staying at home, and it’s absolutely true, but who doesn’t want to minimise travel expenses to get maximum mileage from their dollar?
These days there are many ways to travel for free, or at least ultra cheap. So

Winning The Lifestyle Lottery
Family Travel, Changing Lives, Finding Freedom.
Many people talk of travel “When I win the lottery.”. That would be what it would take to really start living, start travelling and have more free time.
It’s not true you know. You don’t have to win the lottery to make big changes to the way you live.

Village Life in Romania
Our lifestyle isn’t conventional. We travel and have done for over 2 years now, we do unusual things like buying houses in Romania, some people think we’re crazy, but that’s cool.
Sometimes I think we’re crazy too.
Yesterday I reshared an old post, a reader had asked “What do you do all day?” We wer

Where to Eat in London on Vacation
Where to eat in London for those of us who love good food and want to keep an eye on our spending.
London is one city that could destroy your trip budget in food costs, if you’re not smart about where you spend. Eating out 3 times a day here, as we would in Asia, just ain’t gonna happen.

Driving Across Europe, London to Romania
After 9 days of driving across Europe, from London to Romania, we’re home, safely and gratefully.
So what’s it like, driving over 2,000 Km, through 8 countries, with children? Did we love it or hate it?
Here’s a quick run down on how we’ve spent the last 9 days,more detailed posts will follow.

I’m going to introduce you to our neighbours and share a book, Somewhere Different, with you. I want to let you now about a family with an incredible survival story and an interesting outcome. It’s a story that has now become entwined with ours. We met them over the internet and we’ve ended up neigh

Tour of Prague With Kids
A child friendly tour of Prague was high on our wish list as first time visitors to the Czech Republic, and, not having much time to plan or research, we jumped at the chance of taking Travelove’s child orientated Prague tour.
Even if you’re not planning on using a self guided tour of Prague, this p

You'll have to drag me back to India kicking and screaming.
Great.
That’s what my elder son, light of my life, apple of my eye, clone of his mum in many ways, said to a visitor last night.
This from the child that, when we were actually IN India, told me he loved it and that it was his favourite country.
But no, apparently he hates the food, hates the trains

Strewing The World. Worldschooling
Strewing is a word used often in homeschooling and unschooling circles, I’ve not yet seen it used in relation to worldschooling.
When we strew, we leave useful, interesting, attention getting, fascinating, educational objects and materials in the paths of our kids. They are then able to discover the

Things You Need to Homeschool on the Road
We’ve been homeschooling on the road for 2.5 years now. Before that, we were more conventional bricks-and-mortar homeschoolers, registered and approved by the Australian government. My boys are now 9 and 11 and they’re doing just fine, so we have a fair bit of experience in alternative education beh

2015 Wrap Up.
It may look like we’ve spent most of this year not travelling, sitting here in our little house in Romania, but we’ve been to 16 countries this year.
I know!
I couldn’t believe it either. They haven’t all been short trips, a month here, a month there, a few flying visits and long stays in London and

Planning a Big Trip (Again!)
We leave in 16 days and we finally got around to planning last night. We’ve been busy. Christmas, living in a remote village with few modern conveniences and the ski season has eaten up our time.
That and, well, my blogging gene has been dormant lately. But lets get 2016 off to a good start.

When the Worst Happens, You Cope. Sri Lanka Bandaranaike Airport.
It’s everyone’s worst travel nightmare, stuffing up your plans and ending up with nowhere to sleep.
When you travel with kids it’s even more of a worry.
We’ve had other travel disasters, the usual sickness, even emergency surgery, but I never thought it would be us that would end up stranded. We’re

Balapitya Beach, Relaxed Family Villa. Sri Lanka
This one is special!
We paid a little more, but not a huge amount, for a luxurious stay at a secluded and relaxed family villa in a less-touristed part of Sri-Lanka’s west coast.
Sri Lanka has many of these villas, all over the island, this one is on the west coast between Ambalangoda and Balapitya,

To the Bride Who Got Soaked in Unawatuna, Sri Lanka.
We were sitting on the headland in Unawatuna, just chilling at sunset, watching the waves come crashing in, when a beautiful bride and groom arrived to take their wedding shots.
I didn’t have my big camera with me, I was just messing about, trying to take pictures of the kids on my phone for our fa

A Dream Family Vacation in Sri Lanka. Max Wadiya, Ultimate Relaxation.
The Max Wadiya is something totally different, for us and probably for you.
We normally talk about value for money and how far your dollar will stretch in each country we visit around the world. This time we won’t be talking price. Sometimes we throw a curved ball at you and hop on a cruise ship or

What are we up to in Sri Lanka?
Hello lovely followers!
I know I haven’t done many of my usual “on the road” posts this time, not since our slight hiccup at the airport. There is good reason for that, we are crazy busy!
You’ve probably noticed something weird, that we’re doing promotional stays on this trip, something we’ve very r

Galle Villa With Colonial Class. Templeberg Villa
Our third villa stay of this Sri Lanka trip, at the Templeberg Villa, brought us a totally different experience, setting and style.
We expected this villa, near Galle, to be similar to other luxury villa stays we’d previously tried, but we’re learning that everywhere has its own personality. Each ne
