    ABOUT US
    We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience-up close and in person-all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.

    The cabs in Japan are so cutie.. Whoaaaa I saw the tori gate in my dreams few days ago. Hahaha. I remembered it. So my dream brought me there. I have no idea that was that place. Lols!

      Travel dreams are the best dreams! The tori gates can’t be missed when you go to Kyoto. They are so iconic and such a great way to explore history and the outdoors.

    husband speaking age 80, sorry so late putting in a comment, I have been so busy. I have Matcha Tea each
    morning and Wasabi is one of my most favorite meals when we go out in Cebu. Even in Everett, you can find
    a fairly good similar meal. A great video - even I know what some of the food is.

    Did u guys stay there with inspirato?

    • @AlwaysBeChanging
      @AlwaysBeChanging  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not this trip. They don’t have properties in their portfolio in Japan right now. However, we still use Inspirato as a travel agent even when we stay outside of their portfolio. They help us find great hotels at prices we aim for. Plus they book our in country flights when needed. It’s a great way to have an extra safety net when we travel and they can get out the airlines that will cause extra expenses for things like picking seats and checking bags.

    Shouldn't the kids still be in school? I do not think that summer vacation has started already.
