Hi, I’m Carly!

I believe that family travel – regardless of it’s an overnight camping trip to the next town, a fast paced week at Disney, or a month long adventure across the world – is one of the most intentional, enriching, bonding, (not the mention educational) experiences a family can share. I also believe that family travel can feel complicated – with all the extra kids things, and all the schedule shuffling and all the planning… but I’ve learned that it doesn’t have to be complicated. Family travel can be easy – and I’m here to show you HOW to make it easy.

My favourite travel buddies
The Best Food

My husband and I met (nearly 20 years ago) while we were both traveling on working visas in Australia. (He’s English, I’m Canadian, so of course; we married in Cuba.) We travelled around the world together before we ever even thought of kids. When we moved into the parenting phase of life, we sort of put traveling behind us.

Then the pandemic happened.

My Favorite Travel Motto

Life is short. Book the trip, take the detour, and always leave room for dessert.
