I’m Jen, aka “The Flying Mum,” a travel-addicted mama who is determined to find our next family adventure. And when I say “adventure” I don’t mean just surviving a wild day at Disneyland with two toddlers. I’m talking REAL adventures, like cliff walks and zip lining in Switzerland, via ferrata in the Dolomites, and alpine …

My pack hack…

Compression packing cubes. No need to check another bag! Hear me out…

These ones from @gonexsports have a double zipper which helps compress everything so it’s much more compact.

When traveling with small kids and toddlers, I find it easier to organize our stuff into cubes by category
(E.g. pajamas, swimsuits, snow gear, socks/underwear…)… you get the idea.

How do you utilize packing cubes? Have you tried the compression ones like these?

Comment below and I’ll send you a link with my 15% discount.

And the winner is… EUROPE! And by a landslide

And the winner is…

EUROPE!

And by a landslide because you get to see two countries - Spain and Croatia, and get a lot more for your money, like 2-bedrooms, free breakfast, and free childcare/kids clubs!

I compared the cheapest dates for flights and good rooms around that time (for 5-star). This 5-star in Mexico is even better priced than 4-star resorts. This was the best deal!

In Dubrovnik, you could save even more getting the 1-BR hotel room (as I chose for Mexico). You can also catch flight deals within Europe for under $30 (instead of $130 as shown).

Flights to Barcelona were $300 cheaper
(total) when we booked ($450 a person).

Our trip actually includes a stay in Barcelona AND Dubrovnik, but this was just for simplicity.

💫 Make this more affordable by:
*flying 1-stop for $390 a person
*booking a 1-BR in Europe, or…

*leaving the kids with grandma and grandpa 🤣

A rough itinerary for your next trip to Paris (with or without kids)

We didn’t have time to do all of these as we were there during the Olympics, but they were on my list!

It was so difficult to narrow it down.

What would you add to this list?

I’m a hotel girl, 💯 but I still have that wannabe-outdoorsy, set up camp, adventurous mama in me who wants to fulfill our kids’ camping dreams, but without all the prep work! And that’s why they invented…GLAMPING!

After hours of research, I’ve found the best glamping resorts for wannabe outdoorsy families, surrounded by plenty of adventures for the whole fam.

And yes, by “glamping” I mean private bathrooms, cooking facilities, play areas for kids, live music, games, on-site restaurants, and more.

DM me for the list. Or I can give you a quote! Take advantage of my exclusive discounts! :)

Do you want to try glamping?

I’m addicted to these “kinder hotels”!

While there is plenty for kids to do, they aren’t just kid-centric either. It’s just as fun and relaxing for adults without feeling overrun by little ones.

DM me to help find the perfect family (or “kinder”/kid) hotel for your next adventure!

💫 I have a huge list of the top ones all over Europe - Portugal, UK, Spain, Austria, Germany, Switzerland and more!
