[Easemakers Podcast E116] Sabbaticals: What it takes to plan long-term travel

Sabbaticals are a growing trend in luxury travel, with families traveling the world for months, or even year, at a time.

Planning for a long-term, multi-leg journey is a massive undertaking. You’re not just planning itineraries and coordinating travel, you’re accommodating for the parts of life that still go on when a family’s on the move — kids in school, remote work, medical needs, and everything at home that still needs to be maintained.

In this episode of the Easemakers Podcast, Elise Ciappara, a Senior Travel Designer for Joro, a luxury adventure travel company based in London that designs bespoke journeys on land and sea, shares what she’s learned from planning sabbaticals with families and the private service professionals who support them. Tune in to hear why this is a growing trend, the logistics behind making long-term travel smoother for everyone, and her tips for anyone supporting a family who’s traveling for months at a time.
