Married with Luggage

This is not your typical love story.


Take an inside peek at an unconventional lifestyle and its impact on a conventional marriage.


Warren and Betsy Talbot were heading for divorce when they had an idea that changed everything: Put the relationship first. That small but revolutionary act paved the way for an even bigger idea: Sell everything and travel the world. 


"When we left on this journey, we thought our biggest discoveries would be in the world around us. But it turns out we had a lot to explore in our own relationship," said coauthor Betsy Talbot.


Find out what dodging an erupting volcano, riding out a Force-12 storm in the icy Drake Passage, and herding goats in the Gobi Desert have taught them about love and communication in this adventurous and revealing memoir. 


Married with Luggage is for fans of the Talbot's adventures together, those who want an inside peek at how another couple makes love work, and people who live (or want to live) a less conventional life without sacrificing their relationships.

"It's almost as if the reader is packed into the luggage along with the writers, following their progress and coming full-circle to a place where individuals and their dreams are valued as much as the relationship between them.
