MY SON Wilder’s passport rivals that of even the most seasoned travelers, with stamps from 23 countries on five continents—and he’s only five.
Rather than leaving him at home, I often take him with me on the adventures my work as a travel writer requires.
We’ve gone on safari in Zambia and swum with sea lions in the Galápagos.
I have little recollection of some of the places I see in family photos, even if fragmented images of beach days and snippets of a song from a hotel kids’ club in Hawaii do occasionally surface.
What is the value of travel for a young mind, when so much disappears with time?
