About US

---

Over the past 21 years together, travel has always been a part of our daily lives, even if for many days we only traveled in our daydreams.  Before kids, we took countless vacations and even took a gap year to Asia and Oceania. Each trip, whether a year or just a long weekend only fueled our love and passion for seeing even more corners of the world.

This website is a little different than our first blog, though. Far Flung Firths was inspired by a new love that we have - the family travel adventure. We've tried to travel with our kids as much as possible since our first was born in 2012, but it just seemed to get harder and harder. We dreamed about and planned countless trips short and long that seemed to get pushed aside for day to day life. Then COVID happened and daily life slowed and it changed as did our priorities. We sat back and wondered what a gap year with kids would really look like. And now here we are. We are on a year long walkabout through Europe and parts of Africa. We are homeschooling. We have no idea what we are doing, either. But here we are.  

Thank you so much for being part of this adventure with us. We are always wanting to hear from all of you back home and from those with similar stories and experiences. Feel free to reach out anytime and follow us on Instagram: @far_flung_firths
