What if your family’s education plan included camel rides in the Sahara and math lessons in the mountains of Nepal?

This episode will have you rethinking everything.

In this episode of the Best Of series, host Kim Anderson sits down with Jenny Lynn, the powerhouse behind the popular Travelynn Family travel blog. Jenny, her husband Jason, and their two kids have carved out a wildly inspiring life of full-time family travel, multiple education styles for the boys, and running not one, but four, successful travel websites.

From trekking the Himalayas to living in India and now settling in Malaysia through a digital nomad visa, Jenny’s story is proof that you don’t have to choose between adventure and stability, you can design a life that includes both.

In this episode, you’ll hear how they:

• Education methods that aren't homeschooling
• Make full-time travel possible with kids (and how to get them involved in the planning)
• Balance parenting, adventure, and growing an online business while living abroad

This one’s for any parent who’s ever wondered if it’s “too late” to live a big, beautiful life or anyone curious about turning travel into a sustainable lifestyle.
