Transcript

00:00In 1956, after years of insomnia, after years of anxiety, I embarked upon an odyssey.

00:13Dorian Paskiewicz is a 58-year-old doctor who one day decided to give it all up

00:19and spend the rest of his life traveling with his family in a tiny camper from one wave to another.

00:23He wanted us to be unchained to a mortgage.

00:28A moment's notice, just get in and go.

00:30We'd wake up one morning and we'd be in Pensacola.

00:33Wake up another morning and we'd be in Purpose Christie, San Francisco, Baja, Florida,

00:36Venezuela, New Mexico, Alabama, El Paso.

00:38We just for the moment go wherever.

00:40Open the camper door, go out here thing, lunches at noon.

00:43We were not attached to the physical world at all.

00:47In some little town in Louisiana, we pulled over into the state park and he says,

00:51Guys, there it is. We're down to our last dime.

00:55And he was excited.

00:56For ten years, I was either pregnant or breastfeeding without one day off.

01:01When you have nine children living in a 24-foot camper, you have these flare-ups.

01:08Eat healthy, live clean, serve clean.

01:11Dorian had us on such a tight diet.

01:13We couldn't have refined sugar, we couldn't have white bread.

01:16He fed us branches for breakfast.

01:18I wasn't some kind of radical.

01:20He used to play Chairman Mao's wake-up song to the nation every single morning.

01:24They go to a school I consider enormously demanding.

01:27I demand that they serve and be good at it.

01:30We would confront him on a daily basis.

01:32I want to go to high school.

01:33We did everything the hard way.

01:35If it was easy, then something was wrong.

01:37They're lazy.

01:38He's a dictator.

01:39He was Fidel.

01:40I swore I'd never serve again.

01:41Ever.

01:42Your parents said, you can go to school because it's safe, but don't go swimming with sharks

01:50because it's dangerous.

01:51Our parents said, you can go swimming with sharks, but you don't have to go to school because

01:54that is dangerous.

01:55Nobody would ever believe the experiences my brothers and I had together.

01:59I wouldn't change that for anything in the world.

02:02The good outweighed the bad.

02:03It's almost like a dream.

02:05Everyone's trying to get that spiritual moment of perfection.

02:08We had it.

02:09We lived it.

02:10I intend to put my kids through what my dad put me through.

02:13I'm going to keep the dream alive.

02:16Wisdom you get from experience, and that is what my children had a lot of.
