Throughout our travels we are hoping that our 8-year-old, Cooper, can update you with his thoughts and insights about travel, learning, and life. This first week I sat down with him for a brief interview. Check it out:

Mom: ” What are we doing as a family this year?”

Cooper: “Going around the world.”

Mom: ” What do people say when you tell them about our plans?”

Cooper: “Whoa that’s cool.”

Mom: “What do you think will be the most fun part of the trip?”

Cooper: “Eating all the food there. Mom, are we going to eat all of the food in the world?”

Mom: “No, not all the food. Goof ball. Hey, What are you most nervous about?”

Cooper: “Nothing. Well, a little bit nervous about Mason screaming.”

Mom: “What kind of transportation do you want to take?”

Cooper: “A plane, a taxi, a train, and a helicopter.”

Mom: “Where do you think we should go visit?”

Cooper: “New York, Teotihuacan, China, and the Eiffel Tower.”

Mom: “Cooper, what are you going to miss the most?”

Cooper: “My grandmas, Papas, Dr. Courtney, and my class.”
