So you are planning a trip for a week or a year and that dreaded question comes up. Should you buy travel insurance? This is really a personal choice for each and every person. When we traveled Southeast Asia for 10 months, we opted to buy travel insurance. We wanted to be sure we were covered for the unexpected. We’ve heard many stories of people having accidents and wishing they had travel insurance. We can only hope every day is a peaceful day.
Mixed feelings of excitement and anxiety run through your mind because planning for a family road trip is never as simple as it seems. However, a prep list is the key to turning that chaos of planning into a stress-free cruise filled with comfort.
We’re offering a special price for the launch, valid through mid-July.
We are asked time and time again about all of our house sitting opportunities. We get questions like, “How do we find housesits who accept families?”, “How do you house sit all over the world?”, “Do you get to choose the type of animal you will be pet sitting?” and the lists goes on. For us, house sitting is an excellent way for us to get time with pets as well as save a little money on accommodation when traveling. Below we will share with you everything you need to know about house sitting. Oh and a little something special, just for Wagoners Abroad readers!
When traveling within Europe, we do our best to travel with lightweight cabin luggage only. This allows us to use some of the low-cost flights we find using Skyscanner, which typically charge extra for any checked bags. Most airlines allow you one carry on item and one personal item. Of course those sizes can vary slightly depending on the airline. After our 1 year of nomadic travel and homeschool, we are pretty much experts at packing lightly.
It’s that time of year again and we are starting to plot and plan to create the best European Christmas vacation. This time we are looking for a little input from you as well. We will share our circumstances and requirements with you, as well as what is currently on the table for choices. Feel free to comment on our choices or add more to the list for us!
It’s been 5 years in Spain! Exactly 6 years ago the seed was planted. Alan and I were chatting over dinner and I brought up the idea of us quitting our jobs and traveling for a year. Alan’s first reaction was “You are crazy!”. Okay, so tell me something I didn’t already know. I let him digest the thought and showed that others were successful with the process and we could be too.
Many people are asking about summer plans for Wagoners Abroad, so now you will get the official answer! This time we are going local with an Almuñécar summer! Yep you got it, we are hanging around Almuñécar and southern Spain. But that doesn’t mean our summer won’t be full of adventure.
Well another year has passed and we are still living in Spain! That is exciting for us, as we never dreamed we would be able to keep it going. We just wanted to provide you with a quick little update with no frills attached!
