The one where we explore Stockholm

Can you think of a better way to avoid the summer heat than traveling North? This year, just as the school holidays began, we flew to Stockholm, with a plan to visit nearby areas as well. That was our initial plan, but Stockholm turned out to be the holiday where me and Eric would visit […]

The one with the trip to Santa in Rovaniemi, Finland

Finland in winter is magical. Santa Claus is even more magical. Even more so before Christmas. Last year Finland and a visit to was on our short list for holidays. But last minute changes saw us flying towards sunny Cancun rather than the cold North. So this year we decided to plan our trip to [&hel

Top things to do in Vlore with kids

We stayed in Vlore for 5 days, during our road trip in Albania. We used Vlore as our hub for visiting nearby places, such as Berat. During the mornings, me and Eric explored the area in search for exciting activities. However, most inflatable playgrounds and trampolines are closed, until late aftern

The one with Kruja

The very first glimpse you get of Kruja from the road is a clear indicator of the spectacular place where Albania’s national hero was born. Kruja seems to be sitting half way on the rocks of Kruja mountain. You later come to realise that the houses and roads are indeed high perched on the mountain

The one with the day trips from Ksamil

Surely a beach holiday has its benefits, but we’re always up for a little something extra. Especially if it goes deep into the history and culture of a nation. And Ksamil has its fair share of that little extra activities to turn one’s holiday into an enriching experience. I am sure you&

First impressions. First time you set foot in a new country. Misconceptions. Albania has certainly suffered from its turbulent past. Traces of Greek, Roman and Otoman empires are still visible today, not only in historical buildings and culture, but also in the Albanian way of doing things. But perh

The one with Copenhagen

Our Denmark road trip had to include its main city. In fact, Copenhagen was our first stop. We spent here two very full days, packed with loads of walking, playground stops, palace gazing. We experienced the moody Copenhagen weather with one hot sunny danish day, followed by a cold rainy one. We lov

The one with the road trip in Denmark

Denmark… a few things pop up in my head like the land of mouth watering smorrebrod, the vikings, impeccable green landscapes, colourful houses lining the waterfront, old castles, old amusement parks and some new ones, tidal seas with wide sandy beaches. We got to experience all of these i

The one with Jeju

This is South Korea’s largest island. Jeju has a little bit of everything: relaxing beaches, thrilling hiking trails, thematic parks, dense forests, volcanic cones covered in lush plants, UNESCO cultural heritage sites and obviously excellent and fresh seafood. Day 1 We usually start the day w

Activities before our visit to South Korea

I am a fan of worldschooling. And never really miss a chance to show Eric the highlights and characteristics of the countries we travel to. We started having all sorts of activities to help him discover new things about these countries since he was 3-4 years old. Before that, traveling meant experie
