My brother’s name is Wallaby1.1 Talking about families

It’s the year 2000. This is Herman and Candelaria Zapp. Herman is 31, and Candelaria is 29. They are from Argentina. Their dream is to travel around the world … in a car … in a VERY old car! Its name is Macondo Cambalache but sometimes they call it ‘Grandpa’! For Candelaria, and her husband, this is the start of a new life – on the road.

It’s now a few years later, and some things are very different . Herman and Candelaria are now parents, with four children. Here they are: Dad, Mum, three sons and a daughter. But one thing is the same : Macondo Cambalache, their car, is still with them!

Their children have all got different nationalities. Pampa is on the right next to his dad. He’s nine years old. His place of birth is the USA. His brother, Tehue, is on the left, next to his mum. Tehue is six years old, and his place of birth is Argentina. Their sister, Paloma, is next to Tehue. She’s four, and her place of birth is Canada. The other boy is Wallaby. He’s two and he’s from Australia. Is this the end of their trip? No, it isn’t – the Zapp family is still on the road! And Macondo Cambalache is not just their car. It’s their home, their school, and part of their family!

The Zapps have got a website. Read more about their family online.

A wallaby is a cute Australian animal – similar to a kangaroo.
