Tim and Cat home schooled Rohan along the way, which included his writing a daily blog and taking photos.

The Romano-Lax Family

The Lax family--Tziporah, grade 10, and writer Andromeda Romano-Lax and environmental educator Brian Lax--sold their house and most of their belongings in order to spend about a year traveling to Canada, Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, Bali, and now Taiwan, where Brian is teaching English in a small farming village in the mountains. They wanted to combine wandering with getting to know at least one place in greater depth. Their first rule was to make no rules or promises about exactly where they would go and when they would come home. The countries they've loved the most so far were the ones they knew almost nothing about, including Myanmar and Taiwan.
