If you’ve ever put off going on adventures because you’ve been trying to clean and tidy your home, you need to hear this episode.

This week’s guest is no stranger to moving. As a kid, Leslie Alder moved all over the world with her military family and now that she’s a mom to four kids, she takes the same approach. Their recent move to New Zealand required her family to cut the clutter, sell most of their stuff, and prioritise adventures over housework.

Tune in to hear:

• How to balance living your life with managing your family’s home
• How to be a tourist in your own city, even if you’ve lived there for a while [17:17]
• The very weird (but true!) fact about when kids start school in New Zealand [20:55]
• A truly horrific epic fail story that you’ll have to hear to believe! [23:16]
