    i wonder what is in the egg.

  • miro

    That is a basilisk hatchling that got into a barrel of radioactive waste and got semi-mutated. If the egg shell wasn’t there you would be terrified and disgusted.

  • sonia

lainie and miroA single mom & son's travel blog & podcast, chronicling their nomadic adventures as they travel around the world together; Raising Miro on the Road of Life.

Miro and Lainie (mother 45 and 13 year old son) share their adventures from the Road of Life, discussing issues of humanity, global citizenship, unschooling, slow travel, family travel, volunteering & living in the moment as they explore the big beautiful planet, they call home.

Lainie and her son Miro began their 8 year adventure in 2009, starting in Central & South America. They are slow traveling around the globe allowing inspiration be their compass. The pair is most interested in exploring cultures, contributing by serving & connecting with humanity as ‘global citizens’. They invite you to travel along with them, share their experiences, on the Road of Life.
