This was truly the trip of a lifetime to an area we seldom get to see. And you've given an incredible gift to your son. Thank you for sharing your wonderful pictures and please continue to enjoy traveling the world. (Somehow I don't think this is the only trip of its kind you're going to take.) May you always have clear skies and safe passage.

Everyone talking about this being a much more valuable educational experience than text book, you are, in part, correct. However, it would be nice for people to stop denigrating formal education. It is very important that children have both. This young boy will have a great start having had such amazing experiences.

Wish I️ could go on a trip like that, but how did the boy go to school

0points

Chess Wizard 6 years ago

Well, he's six. I don't know how it's done in other parts of the world, but in the US, he would barely have been in school, and everything he would have learned, could have easily been taught by his parents. Once again, I don't know how schooling works elsewhere (I believe they are from Romania), but it is also quite possible that this trip was taken in the Spring and Summer months, BEFORE he would have been in school. Either way, it looks like the child gained a very rich education about the world during his trips.

Compulsory school attendance in Romania begins at age 7. But even then, they have three months of summer holidays, enough time for a trip like this.

3points

Daria B 6 years ago

Don't know about their hometown, but in Croatia, for example, as well as many other European countries (I guess?) the average school starting age is 7. So it's possible they wanted to take this trip as a last chance, before the boy gets too busy. Also, if these were taken in summer, for elementary school, summer holidays can be a bit long. Like 2 months at least.

3points

Sergiu Vlad 6 years ago

In Romania we usually start first grade at age 7. There's a thing called "prep class" which is basically one year of prepping kids for first grade starting at age 6, but they have a lot more free time than a first grader. I'm not even sure this is mandatory, it wasn't a thing in my time so I never attended prep class. Anyway, the kid is 6 so he should only be starting first grade in September 2018.

Gayle Bynum Cardosa 6 years ago

My family used to do this kind of thing every year. We'd take three to four months and travel on the cheap. It was always during the summer. If it lasted into the school year we'd make it up. I actually graduated early so it didn't hurt me any. I learned way more and they are memories I will never forget.

I so enjoyed all of these pictures of this God forsaken land. Even so much of the landscape was barren I could still see beauty in the pictures.
