FORMER WISCONSIN EDUCATOR WRITES MEMOIR ON

LIVING, TEACHING, AND TRAVELING OVERSEAS

HERE WE ARE & THERE WE GO

TEACHING AND TRAVELING WITH KIDS IN TOW

Who says you can’t travel with kids?  My husband, Dan, and I do just that as we set off with our two very young kids, first to live and work on an island far out in the Pacific, then on to the continent of Africa with a few stops in between.  Armed with strollers, diapers, and too much luggage, we travel to over 25 countries throughout a 10-year span, while working together as overseas educators.

After surviving typhoon Yuri, almost being mauled by lions, and, nearly shot by a presidential guard, we happily endure all of the good times and bad, while living life to the fullest.  A decade’s worth of experiences and lifelong memories remain with us, as we return to the U.S., now with two teenagers in tow, and begin to experience our very own version of reverse culture shock.

I wrote this book mainly because I wanted to share our many travel stories with others who are contemplating living and teaching overseas or enjoy traveling, with or without children.  I want others to know that it can be done if you are willing to make it happen and are open to living a life full of adventures.
