Inspirational Stories

Inspiring families to live adventurously, promoting independent family adventure


One of the ways The Family Adventure Project aims to inspire families to adventure together is through stories, the original human way of passing on knowledge, wisdom and experience. We can't think of a better way.

What we aim to offer here is a collection of stories which have something to say about adventuring together as a family. We're not talking travel journals, detailed itineraries or lengthy accounts of encounters with people or places. There's plenty of those around already.

Our aim is to provide easy access to real-life stories that will help you learn how others adventure together, discover what families get from it, get a sense of what's possible and ideas for places you could go. We hope what you read will make you laugh and cry and illustrate the up's, down's, dramas and delights of family life on the road.

If you know of something you think we could feature or would like to contribute something to the site, then get in touch. We'd love to hear from you.
