Review
"The Road Taken is a lovely blend of practicality and magic. It also struck me as applicable not only for building-an-adventure-abroad life but also finding-adventure-where-you-are life.""Part memoir, part travel guide, The Road Taken highlights inspiring stories of families slow-traveling the world with children. Michelle Damiani makes globe-trotting with kids, an unimaginable prospect for most, seem entirely feasible, opening the door for families to dream up their journey of a lifetime, and then actually take it.""I hope the book inspires others to venture out, and especially to give their children opportunities to truly engage with other cultures and to learn other languages, enrichments that will affect them for the rest of their lives. Who knows: I may just slip a copy of The Road Taken under my son and daughter-in-law's tree this Christmas. Their children will thank me many years hence.""Thinking of taking your family to live in a foreign country? But what about money, work, careers, school, friends, pets? The Road Taken will jumpstart your dream, leading you through the whys and hows, with questions and checklists and, best of all, stories by the author and many other families who have taken their own unique journeys of a lifetime."

About the Author
Michelle Damiani is a freelance writer and clinical psychologist currently living in Charlottesville, Virginia. Her heart, however, is in Spello, Italy, where she and her family spent a year growing accustomed to being fish out of water, grappling with the hardships of parenting on foreign soil, and ultimately cleaving into the soul of Italian village life. While in Italy, Michelle used the time that her children were in Italian public schools to write a blog about their experiences. Once back in Charlottesville, she transformed the blog into a book, Il Bel Centro: a Year in the Beautiful Center. Her daily life in Umbria later inspired her novel, Santa Lucia. Written in sweeping telenovela style, and packed with drama, Santa Lucia is nonetheless grounded in the green heart of Italy. When not writing, doing therapy, or relaxing with her family, she can be found experimenting in the kitchen or tucked away with a travel memoir, dreaming of once again hitting the open road.

I enjoyed reading Michelle's backstory about the move to Spello as much as I enjoyed the stories of all of the contributors. Many were mind boggling! I never imagined the possibility of living on a boat with your children while sailing to different countries or of long term traveling with your children in a motor home. This book will open your mind about what is achievable and it will inspire you with how travel can strengthen family bonds and family understanding of the world.
I was prepared to like the book because I am familiar with the authir’s previous works, but I was surprised by how much it really sparked curiosity in my own family.We have always loved to travel, but have been intimidated at the prospect of actually living in another country. Michelle’s book makes that dream so attainable. So a great read, but also so inspirational which is a word I always use sparingly. Not this time- it is such a great book!!
This is a book for families looking for adventure. The author and her family left the U.S. to live in a small town in Italy for one year. So she knows what she is writing about. Many people dream of living with their family in a foreign country for a while, or forever, and they all wonder, How they can we do this? What about school? Work? Money? Language? Health insurance? This book jumps into all issues, complications, planning, and joys of attempting the impossible. The book is not just a “how to†manual, although it does give lists and discussions of about every issue you’d need to consider. It is a collection of stories told by parents who took their kids out of their regular life (in America and other countries) and put them in very different situations—some lived in one place, some moved around, some kids went to local schools, some to private schools, some were “worldschooled.†The stories, including the author’s, show how each family’s adventure is unique, their choices individual, and that there is no one-size-fits-all recommendation or experience. Even if you are just pondering a life abroad with your family, and even if you aren’t, this book is invaluable resource and just a plain good read. You may want to star packing your bags.
Very enjoyable ... made me wish I’d moved abroad when my kids were younger, but really put some ideas in my head about retirement! There are lots of stories from families who moved abroad to many different countries. I especially enjoyed learning how folks resolved issues they encountered as well as the shared moments that made their move memorable.Michele Damiani provides her own stories, bringing me back to her wonderful year in Spello with her family.I thoroughly enjoyed The Road Taken and recommend it to anyone thinking of moving abroad or just armchair dreaming...
The Road Taken is a wonderful “how to†book to make traveling dreams come true. Theauthor based her advice on living in Italy and found numerous contributors who with their children relocated overseas. It was a diverse group of people, Americans, Canadians, Brits. Some were nomads on the move continuously while others settled in one location. The common thread was they all traveled with children. No one sugar coated his/her advice but all seemed like ordinary people who chose extraordinary adventures.The book was laid out in an organized manner from saving for the trip initially to reacclimating to the home country at the end. Special focus was placed on making the trip as meaningful to the children as it was for adults. Ms. Damiani’s background as a school psychologist created a unique perspective for acclimating children in a foreign environment. Each topic began with Michelle’s personal experience followed by others’ stories and suggestions. Many of the contributors are bloggers so entries were well written and informative.I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever considered exploring other cultures. It is an uplifting book that makes the reader want to pack up the kids, pets and passports and hit the road
Full disclosure: I am going to dive head first into anything Michelle Damiani writes. Even though I am not going anywhere soon, travel is in my blood, and I love stories of it, hers, mine, and yours. Probably like anyone who has followed the author's family, I am especially interested in hearing about their experiences. But it was a great idea to expand the scope of adventures to include those of other families who were also undertaking lengthy sojourns. I hope this book inspires others to venture out, and especially to give their children opportunities to truly engage with other cultures and to learn other languages. Who knows: I may just slip a copy of this book under my son and daughter-in-law's Christmas tree --- just to plant a seed.- Priscilla Kingsley
As a seasoned corporate expat, I was so inspired by families that planned and then picked up and moved on their own!!! I enjoyed reading how different families approached their journey. Some stayed in one place, those really adventurous ones country hopped. Other families world-schooled, others registered in local schools. There were honest stories of the difficulties in the choice to move abroad, but nobody said that they wished they had not made the move.Great combination of practical logistical advice (especially the medical advice), advice from a professional counselor on the psychological aspects of moving as well as some truly wonderful personal stories.I would recommend this book to anyone considering moving abroad.If I have one bit that I did not personally enjoy, it would be some of small paragraphs from a few of the contributors at the end of each chapter, some of their blurbs just did not add anything to the big picture for me (this is the reason for 4 not 5 stars).
