Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Susan Whitehead from Wanderlust Families all about growing up in a bicultural home, selling it all to trade her "normal" American life for long-term travel with her family and how those adventures have changed her kids' lives for the better. Here are some important takeaways from our conversation: Growing up in a bicultural family (Costa Rican and American) with parents who valued travel, traveling was Susan's normal. -Her parents allowed her to travel whenever the opportunity arose, and the budget allowed because they knew it would be a good experience. -With her own children, Susan and her husband made travel an intentional priority. -Even though money was tight, they decided to sell everything a move their family to Costa Rica for six months. Before taking the leap, they considered: Cost Ability to get home Goals for their family (ie they wanted their kids to improve their Spanish and learn about their Grandmother's culture) Travels have taught Susan's children: To be skeptical of what they see in the news and draw their own conclusions about people. To overcome obstacles Confidence Being comfortable being uncomfortable Sparked interest in other areas of the world If you are interested in learning more about Susan's story or taking your own long term family travel adventure, check out Susan's website, podcast, and family travel course.

God is the God of all nations. Of all people. Of all languages. He speaks to people all over the earth. And He is drawing all people to Himself. He has provided a way for us to be unified IN HIM. And by His Spirit. The Lord put a desire in Susan and her husband to go to different nations. As a result, she has learned different lessons from the Lord through different cultural experiences. Listen in on my conversation with Susan to hear how the Lord called her to live in different countries… And how the Lord has taught her different things about Himself through those travels. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/createdforstrength/support

Show Transcript: I wanted this to be an introduction to my story and let you know a little bit about me since this is the introductory episode of the Wanderlust Families travel podcast. I grew up in a bi-cultural home. My mom is Costa Rican by birth and my dad was American, so from the time that I was very, very little, I had a passport. We traveled very often down to Costa Rica. My childhood was mostly based in Naples, Florida, and every couple of years we would travel down to visit my mother's father and her brothers and extended family in Costa Rica. So that was just part of our childhood growing up. We would go on a plane to another country and it allowed us an opportunity to see how other cultures lived. When I got older, I had a chance to go to then communist Romania in 1989, actually the summer before their communist dictator was assassinated, Nicolae Ceausescu. It was just my mom and my sister and I, and we went there with my sister's gymnastics team. They had an opportunity to go and train with Romanian gymnasts and Romanian gymnastics coaches and I got to tag along for the ride. It was an amazing experience because it was something completely different than Costa Rica and completely different from our home in the United States. My very first impression was getting off the plane in the airport in Bucharest and seeing these men with these giant machine guns. They seemed like giant to me because I'd never seen anything like that before. And then of course, being in a communist country, seeing the differences, not being able to photograph certain buildings, seeing armed military officials in various places scattered throughout the city and seeing the picture of Ceausescu posted everywhere possible. It was just really, really different than life in the United States. But it gave me an opportunity to see the beauty in a country that I had never seen before, like the different aspects of the culture. While we were there, we were followed by Gypsy children. All of our hotel rooms were bugged and our phones were tapped. We didn't find this out later until I received a long letter from one of the gentlemen that was part of the tour that organized the whole thing. I befriended him because I wasn't a gymnast, so during that time that the others were doing gymnastics, I was able to talk to him and get to know a little bit more about his role there in Romania. That was really eye opening to come to be back from that kind of experience and then realize just how different it was when we were there. We were treated like spies, kinda sorta. As I grew up and my husband and I got married, we always had this desire to live overseas. He had spent six weeks as an exchange student to Spain between his senior year of high school and his freshman year in college, so he had a taste of living abroad. Travel was always something that was really, really important to us as a family. We wanted that experience for our children, even though my husband didn't have it when he was young. He did travel a lot in the United States as a child, but we wanted to give our children an opportunity really to get to know other people, to be able to love other people, to not be afraid of them, and just experience the world as we see it changing because we know that our world is not the same as it was when we were growing up 30 to 40 years ago. It is much more global now and we know how important it is for our children. They should be able to relate to people from very, very different backgrounds, very different religions, very different, just everything. So this was a really important part of our parenting plan, I guess you could say. We never had an opportunity to travel as a family overseas. We thought the US military would provide that for us. In 10 years, we saw a lot of the USA but we never saw anything overseas. When my husband separated from the military, that was still something that we had a desire to do, but we had no idea how that would actually happen. We had a little index card that we had written down some family goals and one of those family goals was to live as a family overseas by the fall of some year. I didn't save that card. I really wish that I had because I can't remember the year that we had that deadline on. It was in a place that I would walk by every morning and I would see it and it was a reminder. It was constantly there reminding me that this was a goal that we had for our family. I can't emphasize how important it is to have that kind of vision, to have that kind of goal and have it written down as a constant reminder somewhere. You can see it all the time because something I, I don't want to say magical, but it is almost like something magical happens that things start falling into place often without you really knowing how they fall into place. Fast forward to 2011. Our family was renting a house in the outskirts of Tampa and we had been renting from a lady directly and we had talked with her about extending our lease. Our lease was up at the end of July and we wanted to extend about three more months. We felt like that would give us a bit of a cushion to then really explore living overseas again. We didn't really have a solid plan. One day in April, she called and said she needed to come to the house and talk to us. We really had no clue what she was going to come and talk to us. We thought it was about some issues we were having with some tiles and the main living room. When she showed up at the door, she had a peach pie in her hands with a big red bow on top. My first thought was, "Okay, something is up. This is not just a normal, 'Hey, I'm coming to check out the house' kind of visit." We sat down and started talking and she let us know that she needed us to move out at the end of our lease, which is at the end of July, It was around a hundred days from the point she showed up. For the most part, I think we would have panicked. We weren't making a lot of money, we were really struggling financially actually. But my husband and I looked at each other and we said, "You know what? We're cool with this. This is good." I think it really took her off guard. She was expecting a different reaction. We knew this was an opportunity for us to move overseas. She was really thrown, but we were really excited. In the next hundred days, we went from owning 15 years worth of stuff to basically owning what could fit in six or seven backpacks. I guess the Little Guy, you just had a tiny little backpack, so I'm not even going to count that one, but six backpacks and a large suitcase. We sold pretty much everything we owned. I like to say we sold everything except for scrapbooks and baby blankets, but we actually let the children keep some stuff. My parents and my sister were gracious enough to allow us to store a few big plastic tubs worth of things that we just felt like we couldn't get rid of as we embarked on this travel. We then bought one way tickets to San Jose, Costa Rica. We told my family that we would be going for three months and it was a test. When you sell everything, you're kind of burning the boats and you're not going to come back in three months, but that was our idea. That was what really I needed to tell myself to be able to do all the work that we were doing because it was a whole lot of work. We had yard sales all the time. Two or three days per week we were selling stuff. I was posting stuff on local homeschool groups to get rid of stuff. We made the leap on August 7th, 2011. When we touched down in San Jose that day, I started to cry because it had been such a stressful, hectic, crazy emotional journey up until that point, not knowing if we were doing the right thing, still not knowing if we were doing the right thing when we landed. It was such a sense of accomplishment when we landed in San Jose that it was emotionally overwhelming. We had done it! We had a dream, we had a goal, and we did it! That's the backstory behind this podcast. It is a story of our family, but also an opportunity for me to download everything that we have learned along the way. Tricks, tips, things that we messed up on, we should have done differently. It's a way for you to learn from our mistakes and from our successes so that you can do something similar. Now, I don't expect everyone listening to this podcast to do things exactly like we did. A lot of people plan for years in advance, but I want to let people know you don't have to. You can make these kinds of crazy travel family goals come true on a very tight time frame and a very, very tight budget. I think when we landed in Costa Rica, we maybe had $3,000 to our names. We did have a business. We did have different streams of income coming in that I'll discuss in later podcasts, but it's possible, if you have a crazy, what I call a God sized dream, you can make it happen. So I'm going to close out this first episode with that. I look forward to walking you through some of the steps and the things that we've learned as we've traveled. We've since gone on to live in Mexico, done a crazy fast-paced three-month road trip in Europe, and then we also have lived for six months in the United Arab Emirates. Each of those trips had different aspects to it, not just because of the different countries we were going to, but the different preparations that we did ahead of those. I look forward to sharing our journey with you and also look forward to hearing your questions. See you on the next episode.
