Welcome back! For those of you who don’t know, my name is Lucia Shindell and my family and I are going to drive around the world. Four years ago, my mom and dad (Deb and Colburn Shindell) packed all possessions, canceled all plans, and sent our family on a whirlwind journey that would change our lives forever. Starting in South America, we worked our way from continent to continent, making incredible memories and meeting even more incredible people.

If you want to check out my old blog, it covers most of our life (in as much detail as a ten-twelve year old girl can) from the months before we left to the final days. The site is Traveling Perfume – Lucia’s Blog. In the next four years, I will be discussing the things we have done, travel tips, and seeing the world can affect a person more fundamentally then anyone realizes. I’ll post again when we’re on the road!
