{Travel} I took my children to Ibiza
When I tell friends that I took my children (plus 7 other children, and their moms of course) to Ibiza they tend to look at me funny. “You took your kids to Ibiza?” Yes, yes I did. And it ended up being a major highlight of everyone’s summer. People automatically think that Ibiza is for […]
{Travel} An American Girl in Marrakech
Half-term breaks. You know them, you loathe them. I feel like I am in a constant state of total panic on how I am going to entertain my kids on these school breaks that seem to pop up almost every other month. It’s impossible to travel every single school break, which means it’s always important […]

Two things that have been on my bucket list for quite some time include going to a German Christmas Market and seeing the Berlin Wall.

We were picked up by a very friendly gentleman who drove us to Porto Rotondo where we boarded a private speed boat. The captain took us around the island to beautiful private […]
{Travel} Mallorca Moments
One of the most memorable stops on our Disney Cruise was Palma, where we spent the day at the Belmond La Residencia high up in the hills of Mallorca. With breathtaking views, gorgeous art, and a pool you’ll want to lounge at all day, this is another place I simply must spend more time at. The hotel […]
{Travel} An Afternoon in Ravello.
One of the goals in taking our Mediterranean Disney Cruise was beating the summer crowds, especially since we had young kids in tow, so when we learned that we would be docking in Naples on our Disney Cruise I chose an idyllic place far from the touristy madness, the beautiful Ravello. We were welcomed by the […]
