When we were planning our trip to Norway, I was debating if we should tack on another country while we’re already on that side of the world. I knew that Iceland Air had free stopovers in Iceland, but we had already done an amazing road trip in Iceland a few years back. Faroe Islands was […]
In partnership with Breathe Bhutan and Tourism Bhutan So you’re thinking of taking your kids to Bhutan. I don’t blame you – I’ve been intrigued by this country for many years and have been incredibly curious to see it for myself. My biggest concerns were the travel distance, as only a handful of airlines fly […]
I keep saying ‘this was the best trip’ after a lot of trips, but this one truly, was the best. My oldest came up to me when we were sitting by the fire in the middle of the Sahara Desert listening to the beat of the drums, gave me a BIG hug and said “Mom, […]

Kauai is our favorite island by far – we’ve had the pleasure of visiting it a few times now and fall in love with it every single visit. It’s more rugged and less built up than the other islands and has so much raw beauty. There are less crowds and very little traffic, and the […]
I’ve long debated if it’s possible to hike to Havasupai with young kinds, and ultimately decided to wait until my girls were at least 6 years old for this. Even for adults, this hike is very challenging due to the heat, logistics, carrying load, the climb down into Mooney Falls, and the distance. We did […]
