The Longest Way Home

The Longest Way Home Travel Blog is written by "a guy traveling the world in search of home." It is an excellent way to see the world from your armchair and decide which parts of it you would like to explore.
He also interviews other travellers whom he considers inspiring. Read his interview with Wade Shepherd (who has his own travel blog Vagabondjournal.com).


At the end of the interview Wade says, when asked if he will stop traveling for his new  daughter's high school education:
We are probably going to continue traveling. It is my impression that life on the road is usually the best teacher, and being able to go to the places and meet the people that most kids only read about in books, in my opinion, is the best instruction. Studying foreign language, experiencing many cultures, knowing first hand how to navigate through the world you live in, not believing the socialized myths of any one culture, and observing the rounds of geo-politics in action is, in my opinion, the best education for any child.
What do you think? Do you agree with Wade? Would you like to spend your life traveling?
