"We tried to immerse ourselves in the culture of each, explore some of the things around us, eat as much of the food as we could, and it became such a magical, amazing time for us, " he said.

"We learned more about ourselves, of course — travel does that to you — but we learned a lot about how we are together and how we are as a family."

That led to their next project: buying an old city bus and turning it into a mobile home for their growing family.
