Host a FREE book event

Title: Using Ordinary Adventures To Build an Extraordinary Family

Are you a bookstore, library, or part of a parent, family, or book group looking to offer members a fun, interactive, and educational experience?

I will lead a FREE, interactive, and fun discussion that shares the biggest lessons from IT'S RIGHT THERE and how families can put them into ACTION.

​Using stories, group activities, and practical examples, participants will learn how to use travel to build strong connections and lifetime bonds without breaking the bank – or even spending any money at all. How? By realizing everything they are looking for is "right there."

​Participants can purchase a copy of the book before or after the discussion. Virtual and in-person options are available depending on location.

Time: 30 minutes
Audience size: Unlimited 
Format and location: Virtual or in person
Cost: FREE unless it is an in-person event more than 60 minutes from my home near Boston, MA. If that is the case then I only ask that my transportation costs are covered.

Copies of the book can be purchased ahead of time.

Highlights include:

• The “It’s Right There” Philosophy 
• Why Family Adventures Matter
• Leaning into Change ("Sleeping in a Cow Pasture")
• Embracing the Ridiculous ("Carhenge and the Biggest Ball of Twine")
• Travel Disasters Become the Best Stories ("The Bedbugs")
• Putting the Phones Away (most of the time)
• "Just go..."
