It starts off really well and incredible that someone actually did this. However I lost interest through the mid of the book only because it becomes more and more a personal tale and I did not find any deep insight. I think what put me off most (not at all any reflection on the book or the author and his adorable family) was that he seemed to have a lot of disposable cash to kind of get around all the things that I would've found frustrating even in a single journey, forget a round-the-world trip! He also has a baby sitter for the whole length of the trip that goes with them - isn't that nice.

Overall though, the writing is interesting and we need more books like these! Maybe I'll go back and finish reading it.
