The Epic Education Podcast
On Epic Education Radio I talk with traveling families and hear how they do what they do. Then I share plenty of links in the show notes.
There are many ways to travel with kids. Gap year travel, slow travel, short travel, long term travel, RV travel, moving abroad…you get the idea.
The motives and methods for each family traveler are different and so are their kids. Different ages, different interests, different ideas, different budgets, and different backgrounds. There isn’t a single formula for meaningful family travel. There are many. On Epic Education Radio, you hear about them — one family at a time.
