I’m the dad behind TravelventureFour, sharing the real-life chaos (and wins) of our year-long family adventure through Latin America. Follow along for tips, guides, and stories to help you plan your own epic trip. Read more →
Before kids, travel was effortless, last-minute road trips, chasing waves, finding hidden bars. Then life shifted: work, routines, responsibilities. Sound familiar?
We thought that meant settling down. But here’s the truth: adventure doesn’t end when you have kids, it just evolves. So we took the leap. Now we’re redefining family travel: slower, deeper, more intentional. Less Disney, more offbeat surf towns, street food, and wild experiences.
It won’t always be easy, but it’s already proving worth it.
We’re a regular family of four, slow travelling through Latin America, budgeting big, packing light, and learning Spanish together as we go.
Learning Spanish as a family isn’t just about words, it’s connections.
We’re proving that you don’t need expensive classes or complicated lessons. Just a willingness to try. Follow along as we make Spanish a natural part of our everyday adventure.
We’re Sean (The dad of this blog), Tania, Atticus, and Aurelia – a family of four.
After years of dreaming about long-term family travel, we finally made it happen. Now, we’re sharing the highs, the challenges, and everything in between to prove that travel with kids is amazing.
Family travel in Latin America isn’t perfect, but it’s always worth it.
Think traveling with kids is too expensive, stressful, or complicated? We did too until we just went for it.
Now, we’re sharing real, no-BS travel tips, from budget hacks to packing lists that actually work so you can hit the road with confidence. Because family travel isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about embracing the chaos and making epic memories along the way.
