EvaB is the ESL Tips Editor for Wandering Educators.
The year-long trip I am currently taking with my husband and children (2 boys, 10 and 14) was a childhood dream of mine. It was a dream shared when I met my husband and extended to a family world trip once we had children. We chose to take the trip in the year when our older son would have started high school, fearing that if we didn’t go now his high school years would fly by with little opportunity to take a year away from school.

Ever want to give back when traveling in the world of need? Love to take photos? Dog Meets World is a photo diplomacy project and help connect cultures through the power of photography. The ambitious mission of Dog Meets World (DMW) is to give all children/families in developing countries personal photographs, often for the first time. DMW seeks to change the way people see others and rather than simply taking pictures, to give them as well.
One of the very first things we did, upon arriving in Ireland was to head to the Cliffs of Moher. Less than two hours from Shannon Airport, we rested for a bit at one of our favorite B&Bs, Dubhlinn House, for a few hours. Not quite so jet-lagged, we made our way down Doolin's tiny, winding roads to the wharf.
