What if the real journey isn’t about where you go, but how willing you are to pause and truly live?

Press Pause. Take A Leap. Change Everything.
Press Pause. Take A Leap. Change Everything.
Around the World in Family Days isn’t just a travel memoir — it’s the story of what happens when one family presses pause on “normal life” and sets off on a global sabbatical to reconnect, reflect, and rediscover what really matters.
After stepping away from busy careers, school routines, and the pull of everyday obligations, we spent nearly a year journeying across four continents and eight countries — not to check destinations off a list, but to create space for something deeper.
Inside you will discover:
How to turn “maybe someday” into “right now”
Why slowing down reveals joy, courage, and connection
How letting go of perfect plans leads to richer experiences
Practical lessons for finding wonder in messy, ordinary moments
This isn’t a book about travel — it’s a book about transformation.
A reminder that the most powerful journeys begin not with a plane ticket, but with the decision to pause, look closer, and live fully.
