I think your statement of selling all your stuff really resonated as we are just about to do the same as part of a big move we are about to undertake. Your point about other peoples reactions also hits home - I think often our choices to live a life fully can frighten others who have settled for mediocrity is it makes them confront their own choices ( or lack of!!!). But the bottom line is we only get one shot at life and we have to decide are we going to live the life we want or the life someone else feels comfortable with. I think sharing your story is a great idea. Often these things can inspire others that are teetering on the brink of grabbing life and might need some evidence to know that it is possible. Hi Annabel

I would love to live a life like you exploring different places around the globe, I'm sure it is a hell of an experience worth penning down.

I think this can be a fun travel book about an astonishing part of the world, Central America, that has been overlooked/neglected for far too long. However, it depends on the way you present it. First, I have to agree with the person who felt the title is misleading. It needs to convey what the book is about. I like that first sentence because it will give you and the readers a chance to explain/rationalize why this crazy move. I want to understand your motives and see more of you and Rich (back story), and like you both, be with you and in your heads, before you (and I, the reader) embark on this new adventure. This account certainly caught my attention, it hooked me as a reader, but it also put me off. When you described your situation in Antigua, my interest was waylaid by the thought, Serves you right for uprooting small kids and an ailing toddler and gallivanting off halfway around the world because you have the travel bug. To some readers, it may seem like you are following your own dream at the cost of your children's wellbeing. You don't want to come across as careless rather than adventurous. With that Anabel flavor, I'm sure it will be a great read. Annabel, You may have a fantastic book here.
