If you’re here for the first time, we’re pleased to meet you!
Zaafrane, Tunisia
We’re the Miller family. In early 2008 we sold our house and almost all of our stuff, boxed what little was left and hit the road.
We spent a year touring most of Europe and part of North Africa on our bicycles… with all four kids. In the meantime, we created a super cool way for families to travel with us and experience the world from home through The Edventure Project.
Then, we returned to America, and camped in southern Massachusetts while Tony worked for a few months to replenish our coffers, you see, the stock market crashed when we were camped atop the highest sea cliff on the Adriatic coast of Italy and our savings washed out with the tides!
We spent the following winter touring Central America in our van, camping in our tents, and working a little as we went… in the process we found heaven and left our hearts in the highlands of Guatemala.
This year the Edventure continues as we outfit the tribe with backpacks and hop on a plane in just a few weeks to head back south. You guessed it… Guatemala.
We are renting a house on the lovely Lago de Atitlan and spending five or six months honing the children’s Spanish and soaking in the unique culture that captured our hearts last winter. We may hop a chicken bus and make a foray into Belize, or down toward Costa Rica… who knows? Either way, we hope you’ll join us for the joy ride that is life!
There are lots of ways you can join the fun:
Entering the Czech Republic
Visit some of the places we’ve been, through a series of cross curricular multi-level unit studies we’re calling The Virtual Field Trip.
Subscribe to the RSS feed on the Travelogue page and get immediate updates when we’ve posted something new!
Listen to the Podcasts and hear the sounds of people and places we visit as well as the pictures and videos.
Contact us! You and your children are welcome to ask questions or request that we make a special visit to something you’d like to see or suggest something fabulous that you’ve experienced but we have not! In this way you can help direct the journey!
Life is short and we only get one shot at it. In ten short years our kids will be gone, creating their own grand adventures, and our whole family will fit on one tandem bike.
Right now, knee deep in mud pies and sticky fingers we almost can’t imagine it… but then again, we can.
It’s this clock ticking in the background that motivates us to spend this decade living large with our kids, four fabulous humans who’ll live on into a future we’ll never see.
We can’t think of a better gift to give them than the world as their classroom and a global vision of humanity.
Won’t you join us in dreaming big dreams, living the one life you have well and sucking the marrow from every day God gives each of us?
May the road rise to meet you,
The Miller Family
