Hi, WE'RE DAN & FRANCESCA,


In June of 2024 we embarked on a year long "Worldschooling" adventure with our three kids Ryan (12), Austen (10) and Finley (8). 


Originally from the East Coast of the United States (New York & New Jersey), we now live in Monte Rio, CA in the heart of Sonoma's wine country.

Omg the escape room garage had me gasping and laughing!!! What a story. I love how travel opens us up to all sorts of wild and wacky and—even if only in hindsight—wonderful moments! Glad you all escaped safely!

Wow, those pictures are amazing. What a trip, and Ryan's video on sharks was spectacular. I learned many new shark facts and loved the graphics. His voice was nice and clear and easy to listen to. Great job Ryan! Miss you all, enjoy your travels, which I know you are!!!
