| The Family Sabbatical Handbook is unlike anything else on the market. It includes detailed advice about everything from sabbatical locations and finances to packing and preparations, vaccinations and visas, foreign schools, bilingual vs. immersion education, long-distance communication, medical care abroad, coping with homesickness, cultural differences, visitors, growing together as a family, returning to the states, and much, much more. You’ll find humorous (and occasionally harrowing) anecdotes, suggestions and advice not only from our family but from fifteen other ex-pat families who lived or are living with their children in China, Europe, South America, and Mexico and who, in some cases, had very different experiences than our own. |

Throughout the book you’ll also find excerpts from “El Grito,” the family website we maintained for the duration of our trip. The Family Sabbatical Handbook also outlines the top ten reasons to take a family sabbatical abroad with your family and explores how this type of adventure can help you and your spouse develop more creative and passionate relationships with your children and each other. |
