Our Story

From Colorado to Spain: Raising Global Citizens

Our Journey Begins

We"re a family of four who decided to trade the stunning Rocky Mountains of Colorado for the sun-soaked shores of Valencia, Spain. Our journey isn"t just about changing locations—it"s about embracing new experiences, cultures, and ways of life.

Why We Choose to Travel

After years of exploring the American Southwest"s national parks and diverse landscapes, we realized that travel was more than just vacation—it was education, growth, and connection all rolled into one. The decision to move to Spain came from a desire to give our children a truly global perspective.

“Travel is not just about seeing new places; it"s about becoming new people. For our children, each journey is a classroom without walls.”
