Toddler Glamping in the Agafay Desert: Review of Agafay Pearl Camp, a Family-Friendly Oasis Near Marrakech
We're always on the lookout for amazing family adventures, and our recent trip to Morocco was no exception. While the Sahara Desert was tempting, the long drive with our 2 year old toddler felt like a step too far. Enter Agafay, a beautiful desert escape about 45 mins drive from Marrakech. It seemed like the perfect compromise, offering a taste of the desert without the long journey to survive! We had read some mixed reviews online about Agafay, so we arrived with a healthy d


7-Day Morocco Family Itinerary & Road Trip with Kids
A land where desert meets snow clad mountains, where bustling souks meet bright blue sea and where intricate tilework meets palm tree oases. Having visited Morocco once before, I already knew what a vibrant, diverse and incredibly beautiful country Morocco is, but I had no idea what it would be like to visit with a toddler in tow. I can now say that it is a very family friendly place to visit, and I might even go as far as to say that it’s been the trip where our daughter

5 Days of Exploring Beijing’s Rich History - A Kid-Friendly Itinerary
With a history spanning over 3,000 years, Beijing is unlike any other city - a place where ancient history meets modern innovation, with iconic landmarks such as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, the city’s bustling streets are lined with a mix of historic hutongs, traditional courtyard residences, and futuristic skyscrapers. We travelled to China in April last year with our then 16-month-old daughter and my husband's family (including his 19-month-old niece). We ended u

Toddler-Friendly Barcelona: Top 7 Things to Do with Kids
Barcelona has to be one of my favourite European cities - it’s vibrant, by the beach, small enough that you can walk everywhere, it has great food, beautiful architecture, good museums, and, as it turns out, it’s super child-friendly! We spent 5 nights in Barcelona, and although people perhaps see Barcelona as more of a weekend trip, there is plenty to do here should you choose to stay longer! Below are my top tips for visiting the city with a toddler or young child. When to


Transylvania with a Toddler: A Road Trip Through Romania’s Most Enchanting Region
There is something undeniably magical about Transylvania. A land where misty mountains, medieval castles, and charming villages seem straight out of a fairy tale. We spent a week exploring the region, and while many know it as the home of Count Dracula, there’s so much more to see and do here. The idea for this trip started taking form as we got invited to a wedding, held in the heart of Transylvania, Romania. I have to admit that Romania had never really been on my list of c

With turquoise waters, scenic mountain views, charming villages and ancient Greek and Roman ruins, Albania really is a hidden gem in the Balkans! It’s the perfect blend of Mediterranean beauty, delicious food and rich history (and it’s both budget and family friendly!). We spent 8 days exploring some of the gorgeous nature and culture of Albania with our 2 year old kid, and it did not disappoint! We decided to go off-season at the end of September/early October as the weathe


Flying with a Baby or Toddler? Here’s Everything You Need to Know
The thought of flying with a baby or a toddler can be daunting - it may seem as there are so many steps and so much that could go wrong. Scary as it may seem though, it is far from impossible and should not put you off from going on a family holiday! Before her 3rd birthday my daughter had been to 18 new countries and 47 flights including a couple of solo trips so I would say we have become rather used to flying together. Although every flight brings something new and the nee

Packing Tips for Travelling with a Baby/Toddler
For many parents, myself included, packing can be one of the most stressful parts of travelling. How can you possible fit everything your child might need in a whole holiday into a single suitcase!? Before my daughter turned 3 she has been to 18 different countries and she has been on 47 flights so in my experience, you generally need less than you think! The first thing to think about is if you actually need it or if it is one of those "what if" items. After all, the more
