We travel on airlines often. Hot Hubby is an American Airline Million Miler, and I’m pretty darn close myself. In fact during Sebastian’s second year of life we lived in Dublin for a year, and he flew 100,000 miles in one year! However, airline travel with kids requires massive preparation and is rife with potential hiccups and worries. Here are…
Tibet is one of the most interesting places we have ever visited. We have all seen the oppression from the Chinese government on TV, but to see and witness it first hand was fascinating, if not a little unsettling…
We had 48 hours in Hong Kong on our way to Cambodia, and wanted to be sure we hit the ground running with a productive plan. Hong Kong is such a mixture of old and new, east and west, it makes for a fascinating city visit with delicious dim sum, floating islands, and an incredible skyline.

Moorea is a simply stunning French Polynesian island… it’s literally the stuff movies are made of (wait, I think a few movies were filmed there actually). In fact some say it’s the most beautiful island you’ve never heard of.

10 reasons to visit Bhutan with kids. We took the scariest flight we have ever taken from Kathmandu into Paro, Bhutan.
We immediately realized Bhutan was a very special place with it’s amazing topography of mountains, forests, rivers, clean air and small population.
Bhutan is the last Himalayan Buddhist kingdom and is sequestered at 2,000m above sea level, has 73% forest cover and…
I was less than thrilled to board a tiny prop plane for our 45 minute flight from Kathmandu to Paro, the international airport of the Kingdom of Bhutan. Drukair operates in an alpine environment with a small fleet, and delays often occur due to weather or other operational issues…
Our traveling circus is hitting the road again, and this time we’re headed to Nepal, Bhutan and India. I’m often asked why we travel to developing countries with kids, and I always think that’s an interesting question. I mean doesn’t everyone want to visit everywhere in the world in no particular order?!? Turns out that no they don’t…
Our plan was to visit the UK to spend time with family, then head to Jordan. Petra has been on our bucket list for a while, and after much research, we were ready to visit. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. A terrorist attack prompted the US Embassy to warn US citizens against traveling to Jordan, and reluctantly we postponed the trip.
We were…
