British Couple Sells Home For A Motorhome To Travel The World With Their One-Year-Old Son

Traveling to different places isn't that hard if you just put time and effort to plan your trips, but it does get harder once you start having kids. However, for one British couple, it seems that traveling the world with their one-year-old son isn't a problem at all. In fact, they even sold their house and decided to live in a motorhome just so they can do it.

According to the Daily Mail, 36-year old Terry Constant, along with his 32-year old wife Jennifer, decided to sell all of their properties for a lifestyle change. The married couple thought that it was time to quit their jobs that had 12-hour shifts and decided that they needed to spend more time with their one-year-old son Ethan.

They also thought that they were paying so much for nursery fees that cost £900 (about US $1,100) monthly. It was also the perfect opportunity to take advantage of foreign travel because it would become harder for Britons to travel later on after the Brexit vote happened.

As a result, the family sold their home in Brislington and bought a motorhome that costs £14,000 (about US $17,200). One of their first travel destinations was in Santander, Spain and they toured the gorgeous snowy peaks of northern Spain's mountains. They also visited the stunning beaches of Portugal and even enjoyed camping in an elephant nature reserve.

Bristol Post reported that Mr. Constant admitted that it took some time for them to get used to the new kind of lifestyle. It was a big change for them having to swap their big home to a small 6.25-meter long motorhome. Now, they just live off with £800(about US$ 980)a month and travel from one destination to another every few days.

Most of their adventures are in Europe for now but they will also travel to other continents and work for paid projects. Now, the family is trying to document their travels and posting it on their blog called "travel as they grow."
