Deciding on an all-inclusive resort when traveling with a family, can be one of the best decisions you can make as a parent, for your budget AND for your mental health.

Summer travel looks very different this year since we are still on Covid-19 stay-at-home orders. However, National Parks across the US are in the process of reopening, and are a GREAT drivable option as people look to get away to open spaces after spending months at home. We visited Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon National Park recently and were immediately soothed…
As we drove along the Pyrenees, through Southern France and Northern Spain, we were excited to visit San Sebastian, Spain.

It’s a display organized for the people, by the people, resulting in a massively disorganized event. Regulations on fireworks are…
Penguin Place is located in Dunedin, and is not easy to get to, but was one of the highlights of our trip to New Zealand. Dunedin lies on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand, and is covered with beaches and wide open spaces. It’s a massive open space of land where the weather can change in a minute. The…
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…
Our travels have taken us many gorgeous places, but the Greek island of Santorini – with skies and oceans so blue it dazzles the eyes – was simply magical.
