A family-of-five is on a 14-month round-the-world holiday flying their own single-engine plane. The Porter family took off in June and has already traveled to the Bahamas, Dominican Republic, US Virgin Islands, and Argentina.
Dad Ian, 59, a real estate developer, mum Michelle, 58, and kids, Samantha, 21, Sydney, 18, and Christopher, 15, traveled 15,000 nautical miles, stopping off in 12 countries. The brood, from Vancouver, Canada, believe they are the first family to attempt the adventure. Currently in Argentina, next they will be heading to Ushuaia, South America, and then they will head north through Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and into Central America. Next, they’ll go through Europe before heading through Northern Africa, the Middle East, Pakistan, India, and Eastern Asia before heading back towards Canada.
