About Us

We are a family of four currently on our third adventure exploring the world while writing and roadschooling. Our home is in ever sunny Scottsdale, Arizona. 



Adam was a math and finance professor at Grand Canyon University. He now writes full time for Seeking Alpha while homeschooling the children in mathematics and economics. His interests include education, backpacking, and craft beers.




Lindsay is now on year three of homeschooling the children and is the writer, photographer and videographer of “Dree Your Own Weird.” Her interests include architecture, botany, and language.




Luke is in seventh grade and quickly becoming a talented guitarist. His interests include hockey, classic rock, and international cuisine.


Serenna is in fourth grade and is generally found in the kitchen preparing tasty vegetarian entrees. Her interests include zoology, health, and swimming.


We rent out our Arizona home as a vacation rental in order to help fund our travels. Want to visit the desert? You can check it out on airbnb here. 


In the near future, articles will be added to this blog on the subjects of long term travel, homeschooling, and preparing for travel. If you have any questions, however, feel free to drop us a line. We are always happy to help.

They Were Cones - Stockholm, Sweden

The city of Stockholm stretches over fourteen islands, and is teeming with almost as many ships as people.  Our scant twenty-four hours there was nothing but a tease, yet we made the most of it with many promises of a return visit. Twice in the past, Adam had stayed at the Af Chapman Hostel , and so returning with a family now in tow was a must.  Often voted one of the top hostels of the world, the Af Chapman includes rooms on a 19th century ship moored next to the island of Skeppsholmen.  There are also additional rooms in a nearby building with an interior designed like a ship's quarters.  If you don't make reservations in time, don't fret - you can still visit for a drink or mid day meal. After an hour spent finding parking on the tight island, we headed to the Gamla Stan .  The Gamla Stan is Stockholm's old town, and as in most European cities, a great first stop on the tourist route.  There are numerous shops for your sou...

Thanks A Lot, Kevin Bacon - Tara River Canyon, Bosnia Herzegovina

White water rafting has alway seemed to me something of which to be very, very wary.  I suppose I could blame the 90's movie, The River Wild for my caution; I remember choking back fear as I watched that poor family forced down deadly rapids by an armed Kevin Bacon.  However did they survive?  Then again, perhaps Milo and Otis  are to blame!  Sweet kitties should not have to endure falling through waterfalls in nothing more than a wooden crate; I closed my eyes to the horror. More so, though, I am a seeker of beauty, not of thrills.  When we realized that we were only a few hours from Europe's top rafting waters though, I knew my fears needed to be laid aside for the benefit of the family. Where the borders of Bosnia, Serbia, and Montenegro meet lies the Tara River Canyon, second deepest in the world after the Colorado. There are quite a number of rafting camps that stretch along the river, all providing similar services to summer tourists....

Prowly Little Things - Bay of Kotor, Montenegro

Montenegro, where mountains meet sea.  We went because we were told we must.  We stayed because we couldn't bear leaving. Along the coast of this minuscule country lies the Bay of Kotor, and along the Bay of Kotor lies small village after small village, with one exception - Kotor itself.  Kotor is a fortified city, and one that belies belief.  Its walls run up the side of the mountain spasmodically; they cling to crags and mount small valleys, utilizing the landscape if ever under attack.   And today it  is  under attack, by throngs of tourists disembarking their cruise ships before its very gates.  They are there to plunder the shops of their wares and the bay of its fruits.  I can't blame them one bit, really, for I was one of them.  I took the advice of a local, however, and did not order fish from any of the area restaurants.  During the warmer months, the demand is great, and more often than not you are served fish s...
