“Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.”― Jack Kerouac
This episode of Pregnancy Birth and Beyond we climb that mountain with our guest Taneal Cadou-Blake. Taneal and her family recently returned to their home town of Byron Bay, Australia, after three and a half years of travel and living abroad. We hear how Taneal, her husband Lalo and their four youngest children packed up all their belongings, took the plunge and set off abroad on a family adventure. With one backpack each the Cadou-Blake family set off to discover a life full of wonder and beauty across Asia and Europe. You might think it costs a lot of money to travel, especially with four children, however, this family with it's roots in gypsy life show us that even on a shoe-string budget travel is possible. Taneal shares with us some extended travel tips, kids education and a different kind of education and some unexpected but happy surprises along the way.

Such an amazing family! I’ve always been so much impressed by Taneal being so calm and wise and caring and loving, her kids being so open minded and mature for their age, but still being kids... Their adaptability is huge, I known they’re so well fit for life, anywhere in our world, more than my own kids, their cousins actually, who travelled the world as well, but in the “tourists way” Taneal talk about, probably not getting a third of what Anoushka, Yamuna, Gaia and Monkey boy got from this outstanding experience. And same as you Yaya, I’m so very proud and happy to have them part of my family :). But already missing them a lot. Gaelle, sister and aunt. ❤️❤️❤️
