We are the Heartswells – a name inspired from the day mini-man was born. Damon said that his heart filled so much that his swelled.
We are a young family who is using travel to build our #FamilyFoundation – a journey to establish a strong family unit that will continue to grow and evolve as the years go by.
Remember, Time is the only thing on this planet that cannot be replicated.

Sharon, The Mom of the Group
Growing up, I always dreamed of visiting many places around the world. Since my family couldn’t afford it, I made it a goal of mine to travel as much as I could when I got older. That goal was far surpassed when I met my partner in life – Damon. In the 18 years that we have known each other we have traveled across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Now we want to take that travel up a notch by traveling the world. We are excited to share our journey with you and hope that you will be inspired to travel yourself.

Damon, the Leader of the Group
Growing up in New England, I was led into a corporate life of a good job, a mortgage, and a family. I met my partner Sharon while working weekends in a Florida theme park. Having idealized fictional reality, my ensuing adventures with Sharon revealed to me the wonder and depth of honest connections and complex un-curated experiences. My biggest adventure is my own self knowledge, and in turn the challenge of being a hero for myself and my crew. I cherish the journeys I share with those I love. I’m excited to share some of them with you.

Mini-Man
I am the oldest of the kids. I am eight years old and love to go on adventures with my parents. My favorite places are theme parks like Disney World, Legoland, and Sea World. I’m trying to convince my parents to take me to Universal Studios in Japan.

Little Dude
I’m kid #2. I love going on adventures with my family. I’m super excited to be six years old – I’m now old enough to climb the climbing wall on cruise ships!

Big Man
I’m kid #3. I’m the fastest of the kids. I can outrun anyone. My favorite things are annoying my brothers, eating, and cars! Cars are the best.

Squish
I’m the newest member of the group. I love crawling as fast as I can and don’t see a need to walk. I love going outside and getting as dirty as I can.
If you’d like to benefit from first hand experience / advice for going round the world, we know a couple who has done it – solo and with a group of boats.
They’d be glad to answer any questions and give you some ‘heads up’ suggestions before you weigh anchor.
Jim and Jenee Fraine: live in San Clemente, known them for years. He was a Teradyne sales guy and they both went to New Zealand on that bike trip with us.
P.S. They are selling a 50-some foot boat – the one they made their last voyage on!
