Episode • Feb 11, 2021 • 1h 20m
Today’s guests on the Expat Money Show are Jessica & Will Sueiro. Since 2014 they have been travelling the world - one hometown at a time. Together with their free-spirited children, Avalon and Largo, the family have visited 70 countries in their quest to provide a global education for their children, while building a deeper bond as a family.  

WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW:

  • It took them 7 years from the start of the idea of becoming full-time travellers to actually being on the road.
  • We talk a lot about what schools look like in other countries. How the children handled not being able to speak the native language and being on the playground and being able to fit in.
  • Living full time in Costa Rica, Ecuador and in France. What did that look like? Was it easy to make friends? Did you love it or hate it?
  • Avalon asking to be homeschooled and how well she is doing today. As a 16-year-old she has 2 online businesses. Find out what they are and how they came to be.
  • The Sueiros' have been travelling non-stop for 6 years. What are the kids like today? are they empathetic? kind, funny? what does moving from country to country do to a child?
  • Will & Jess talk about how they broke into the community! you won't believe it!
  • Mikkel & Jess talk about doing the 'hard things' in life.
  • Then what did they do?........
  • They rented a 21 1/2' motor home. Small yes..cozy, for sure. They travelled all through Europe, crazy to hear these stories.
  • What are they doing today? and if you've wanted to travel, leave your home country and see the world, this episode is a must for you. You'll love it!
  • After four months locked down on the dock in France, they finally get to take their sailing lessons. They will set sail for Greece (from France) on March 1st.

CONCLUSION

Well, as most of you know, I love talking about education. Worldschooling, homeschooling, unschooling... It's just so great to talk with like-minded people. What they, as a family have achieved is remarkable. If you want to experience a trip with them, I really urge you to view some of their YouTube videos, watch how they live their lives, it's truly amazing. Their lives have been profoundly changed by travel, mine too! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed chatting with Will & Jess.

Into The Amazon—Then Straight To The Beach

This year, I’m taking a private group into the Amazon rainforest—then we head to Fortaleza and explore Brazil’s booming Northeast coast. Think Amazon river cruises, beachfront developments, and wide-open opportunity. From the heart of the rainforest to pristine beaches most people only dream about—this is bucket-list meets Plan-B strategy. If you’ve ever wanted to see the real Brazil and scout investments along the way, this is it. Go to ExpatMoney.com/Brazil.
