If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

"A sailboat, or any boat in general. My family grew up with a boat and being "on the water" is where I feel the most at peace. During the summer, we actually lived on our boat and "sailed" from one marina to the next in the New York and New England area where we were able to see many different towns and boating communities. The sea air is freeing and calming. From a young age, my parents have instilled the importance of boating and water safety. Swimming and boating lessons were a necessity if we were to be on the water as a family. Being on the water isn't just an activity, it is an experience and to this day, brings me so much excitement. I also love boating because I know that this is an activity that Jackie also loves, as her family has generations of fisherman. Although we do not have a boat now, we hope to carry on our families boating traditions. We still enjoy water activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and just sitting at the beach, enjoying the sun and waves." - Caroline

My philosophy on parenting is...

"Children should be explorers, inquisitive and experiencing things unknown to them. Parents should be the guides, familiar with what the explorers are seeing, knowing where danger lurks and where the explorers are safe to discover what interests them." - Alex

My philosophy on parenting is...

"Positive discipline, I've been studying it since 2013 and sharing it with families and I really love how guides children with love and empathy and at the same time it allow emotional conection with parents. I've seen and guide families to enjoy their parenthood and I would love that to my own family" - Lorena Jiménez

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

"I would live in an RV for the rest of my life. I like the idea of parking one place, meeting new people, and learning about that area. Then being able to move on to the next stop on the road." - Sean Scott

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?
