Its a big dream and its a scary one if im going to be completely honest. BUT its a dream we have been talking about for as long as I can remember. And it comes hand in hand with my last post about "The great Australian dream". Re directing our focus from buying a house, and instead focusing on this dream.
So what is the dream?
Well its simple really. Come mid to late 2019 (yeah a few years a way but we need to get organised)
We are going to pack our little family up and hit the road.
We are going to travel Australia in a Caravan.
We plan to be gone for at least 6 months. The reality is, we might last 6 weeks and hate it and come home. OR we might hit six months and just keep going.
We will school the kids on the road, we will teach them through real life! real experiences. Something (we hope) they will get a lot out of and experiences they will carry with them for life.
As a midwife ill be able to work on the road and we plan to just follow work around Australia, doing stints of a few days, weeks or months in different hospitals. Then travel for a few weeks and then do it all over again. Hubby plan to find some work on the road and get some new skills under his belt, picking up whatever work is available.
Its terrifying to think of packing everything up, selling what we don't need and hitting the road. But it is also completely exhilarating.
So that's our plan, that's what we are aiming towards, a life on the road. The big, wide, open road!
Bring on 2019, we absolutely cannot wait.
Have you done it? Do you have any tips for a family about to give it a go?
