We get asked often to share information with our readers, because, well, you are a bunch of rad, bad-ass, super folks (even on days you don’t feel like it. Trust me. You. Are. Bad-ass).

Usually we decline, as Mamalode is a nice reprieve from stuff being sold to you all the time. But this one intrigued me—perhaps it is because I dream of taking my family and spending a year in Mexico. And most people I know have some iteration of this dream—travel, or unplug, or get off the grid, or build a dream.

This is a TV show, they are looking for families who are making some big shift or change, or who want to. No promises made, but perhaps it is a way for someone to realize a dream that they couldn’t without the support of a crazy opportunity like this. Since it is TV I am assuming it comes down to personality and ideas…and if I know Mamaloders there is no shortage of either.

They asked us to ask you to contact them. Why not? Dream big, throw it out there. If one of you gets to partake in this wild opportunity, write about it for us.

And in the meantime, I will be dreaming of Mexico, but for now living in Mamalode land is dream-come-true enough for me.
