Welcome

It's a big world. Let's explore it

Stories, itineraries, inspirations and the usual struggles!

Real itineraries,
from traveler to traveler

What began as a family travel diary has grown into a space to help you travel on your own, light, stress-free, and with confidence.

Here you’ll find our itineraries across the globe, plus plenty of tips to finally bring that long-dreamed-of trip to life.

Everything here has been lived and written by me. It’s content you can trust, authentic, real, and full of those clever tricks that save you from big travel mishaps… or help you embrace them and laugh afterward. Because really, what would our stories be without the mishaps along the way?

Here I share our experiences

We’ve visited 31 countries as a family, plus about 20 more on adults-only trips, so there’s no shortage of stories to tell!

We keep things light and straightforward, but always warm, bringing you useful information that’s been tested and proven along the way.
