Today I’m speaking with Ben Lutz, the dad of The FUNemployed Family! In 2018, after more than a decade of rat racing and corporate ladder climbing, he and his wife realized they were firmly on the hamster wheel of life and feared that they would regret not spending more time with their young daughter!

They quit their jobs, sold their house and most of their possessions and set off on a gap year around the world with their toddler. They were looking for a life (and career) reset, and boy did they find it! For the past 6 years Ben and his family have been on a digital nomad journey traveling full time to 35 countries while working remotely and “worldschooling” the kids along the way!

This is what you’ll learn inside this fun and informative episode:

  • Financial Planning for Long-Term Travel
  • Choosing the Right Destinations for your Family
  • Dispelling the Myth: Traveling with Young Children isn't Worth It
  • Flying with Kids: Tips and Tricks for a Smooth Journey
  • Embracing Slow Travel: The Benefits of Extended Stays in one Location
  • Mitigating Over-Tourism
  • Teaching Kids How to Embrace New Cultures and Experiences
  • Childcare and Education for Traveling Families
