The highs and lows, The tos and fros, Come and see what an
average month looks like for a travelling family.

Because we live in a tinyhouse on wheels we can
afford the luxury of travelling, a lot!

The following is a snapshot of our latest adventures

Finland.
The best part about Finland for us was all the nature,
WE LOVE MOTHER NATURE!!!

Germany.
From Finland we took the boat over to Germany to see some friends
and have some work done on our tinyhouse truck.

Germany had a lovely mix of nature, friends, ice cream and very efficient Mercedes mechanics.

Denmark, Copenhagen.
We had so much fun in Copenhagen, this is our most favourite city in the whole world and
if you haven't been then I would highly recommend that
you jump on a plane tomorrow and check it out.

We are far from your average tourist which is why we love Copenhagen so much because it's far from your average city.
The Netherlands, Amsterdam.
We wouldn't usually come to a city like this but it just felt
right to come here and do a Steemit Roadshow.

Amsterdam was fun but we soon realised that maybe we should have come here before we had kids to really enjoy all that Amsterdam has to offer :)

France, Paris.
We spent a few days in Paris, partly because of the steemit roadshow
but also to show the kids the world-famous Eiffel Tower,
part of the reason we chose this lifestyle is so our children
get to see the world, instead of reading
about it in a school textbook.

some nature, they started asking us to find a patch of grass to sit on,
when we found this little patch of man-made nature
we soon realised our children are not city kids.
Orgiva in Andalucia, Spain.
After the hustle a bustle we headed for calmer seas, we went straight to our friends land in Orgiva, This is a very special place for many reasons and I shall reveal all in a lengthy post in a week or two.
More Orgiva posts to come :)
Is it possible to go on holiday whilst travelling?.
and that's what life is all about.
In a week we will be going back to Orgiva to do a steemit conference and go to a huge party, then we shall start heading towards Portugal where we will attend Steemfest and then find some land to start an eco community, so be sure to stay tunned in with the tinyhouse family where the adventure never ends.
Peace and love to the World.

This is really what life is all about! You are leading the real life which everyone should be leading btw.
You are free, have a healthy lifestyle and no stress. The smile on your kids faces say it all.
Bravo my friend!
Looking forward to that Orgiva post!
So happy to see your family happy! Isn't funny that they want to say that you are not taking care of your children in the times when they are having best times of their life! One day when go by Croatia, send me message and we can meet up if you want.
Does your wife have Steemit account also or you are covering it for whole family?
Hello @cmoljoe yes they have the nerve to say we are abusing our children for not sending them to be programmed at school.
My wife doesn't steem yet, but I am thinking to open another account when we start our eco community.
This is one of the best comments I’ve yet read on Steemit
You all inspire my family. 😊 Thank you for sharing this recap. I enjoyed every bit of it!
Thank you @crosheille it feels great to know we are inspiring people, we think that you and your family are also a huge inspiration to people, you put your family first and that's what counts.
Thank you for swinging by and blessing us with your wonderful comments :)
Bless.
The pleasure is always mine. 😊 Thank you for your kind reply~
Awesome post, awesome adventures! I agree that Amsterdam would've been best enjoyed before kids, but I'd say the same for Christiania in Copenhagen. A very interesting part of that city, but wouldn't think it's too kid-friendly in a lot of areas...
Look forward to your next post from Spain :)
Thank you @adventureevryday
Believe it or not despite all the bad press Christiania gets i have never felt unsafe there and I have been there about 30times. part of it are very calm and ideal for kids.
I'm glad you enjoyed this post :)
Thanks for stopping by.
Yeah I didn't feel unsafe there either and even walked directly through the green light district, which was weird for sure, but not threatening. And I really enjoyed going to the top of the church tower there, that was cool! Just thought it might be a sort of strange place for kids to be exposed to, but that's how they learn things I guess.
Cheers!
very good
There is a very cool camping in Amsterdam in case you ever end up there with a truck with children etc.
this is a great post
follow me plz

Thank you @maya7
I really enjoy your feedback and I appreciate it very much, you have a genuine, kind heart.

Hey Mark, great reading a post of you again. Seems like you made all the right decisions and you and your family are enjoying yourselfs. Indeed it seems like your children prefer nature above city. Which is a good thing also!
Thank you @s3rg3, we truly believe we are on the right path and the more we do it, the happier we get as a result.
Thanks for stopping by my friend.

Can't believe that it's only been a month since we both left Sweden! Alot has happened in that month. I agree with you about the difference between traveling and Holliday. We often have to explain that we are not on vacation but travel as a lifestyle, big difference but sometimes hard to explain.
Ha, difficult to explain indeed, you get stuck trying the holliday way because my official explanation would be to be in a holliday of a holliday of another holliday. I don't expect you to understand this so yes, travelling as a life style is the way :-)
Yes @fanstaf it seems that it's been a jam packed month for both of us.
Yes I see a big difference between traveling and holiday, and I must say I prefer traveling.

Nice to follow, you are reaching the parts i am very interested in now. Was in Orgiva long time ago and we would love to check it out again. If I recall, this is the time the Dragonfest is happening, omg the wildest freeparty i ever attended. This is also where i met with my current girlfriend, she left her mercedes van behind there, still in use... Lots of memories, will be eager to pick them up again with your coming stories. If you would pick up something about English schools going on there, please put it the post. Cheers mark, enjoy!
Yes @bubke Orgiva is a very special place, it's calmed down since the dragonfest days, everyone is growing food and doing yoga now. :)
There are some alternative schools here but they are not official so I'm not sure if they will let me reveal all but I will ask them if I can do a post about it.
Thanks for stopping by.
Bless.
Such a beautiful family!!! Watching your pics make me feel so good because they are full of happyness. Thanks for share a bit of you with us ^_^
Thank you @silviabeneforti I am glad we could bring some happiness into your day.
Bless.
That was a fun post to go through :D
Those friends of yours in Spain took one hell of a place to live :O
Thank you @droucil
