Since we started travelling, I have taken our three kids backpacking on three occasions, SOLO, and I plan to do more in the near future. So where have we been? Our first time was a two week trip to southern Spain. It went remarkably well so I embarked on a three month tour of South-East Asia…
Three places in San Fran that are specifically great for kids… two of these places are even free!
After the disappointment of swimming with the whale sharks (note, seeing the whale sharks was fab but the experience was terrible) I decided to take our younger two kids on a full day trip to see the sea lions and visit some of the islands and beaches off the coast of La Paz (Mexico). If…

We arrived into a semi-deserted Sunny Beach late September 2017. The sunshine was fading, the winds were picking up and Autumn was definitely on its way.
