Ever wonder what it would be like to sell everything you own and start traveling? What if you could save enough money to not work for six months...or longer? What if your day revolved around what you felt like doing to fulfill your dreams and satisfy your soul? What if you could forget about obligations, responsibilities, and being accountable to someone other than yourself? What if you escaped the grind with five kids in tow?In The Road Less Traveled: Why You Shouldn’t Give Up Your Comfy Couch, Hot Showers, and Steady Paycheck, Robyn shares what it’s been like to walk away from a conventional life filled with routine and responsibilities and, instead, spend her days seeking adventure and making memories with her husband and five kids. While chasing waves, climbing hundred foot rock walls, and wandering along mountainous trails was the driving force for her in escaping the grind, it isn’t so simple when it involves a significant other who is much more grounded and two young children who are less than excited to get up and hike every day. Robyn’s story is a reminder that the compromises we make in order to fulfill (or not fulfill) our soul’s desires aren't easy and self-growth requires effort and persistence. If you set off to see if the grass is greener on the other side, be ready for some brown patches in between.This is a great book for anyone who loves to travel or wants to be inspired to travel more!
