Mallorca with Kids

This year for Easter we knew we needed to head somewhere sunny. There are so many things to love about our life in the Netherlands but the weather is not one of them. With our sights set on some sun and sand we booked a trip to Mallorca with friends. Getting There Mallorca with Kids […]

Lisbon, Portugal with Kids

We ended our Portugal trip in Lisbon. Lately we’ve been ending trips in a larger city. We love that we get to dump the rental car and enjoy the city car-free for a few days. After great weather for most of the trip, we had terrible rain in Lisbon. Even with bad weather we were […]

Goat Farm Fun at ‘t Geertje

Wednesdays are half days for schools in the Netherlands. With the sun out we try to take advantage of these half days to explore places closer to home. After I picked the kids up from school we loaded into the car and headed to a Goat Farm near Zoetermeer, 20 minutes from our house. Boerdeij ‘t […]

Girls Weekend (Plus Baby) in Stockholm, Sweden

When the right ticket price came up on Norwegian for a weekend visit to Stockholm, my friend and I jumped at the chance for a girls getaway to the north. It is a quick 2-hour flight from Amsterdam! In order to accommodate the kids’ schedules (and our husbands) we took a late night flight on […]

Santa Claus Reindeer Safari

Hands-down our favorite experience while in Lapland was our Reindeer Safari with Santa Claus Reindeer. Laura and Ari, the two who run the company, are completely locked on. We napped the kids and fed them a late dinner in town. Then we were picked up at the hotel by Laura from Santa Claus Reindeer and […]

Santa Claus Village, Rovaniemi Finland

We spent one of our days in Finland exploring Santa Claus Village. There is easily a full day of adventures here particularly if you book all your outside activities out of this location. Santa Claus Village is easily accessible from Rovaniemi by bus (#8). The bus is slow and makes lots of stops, but it was […]

A Day in Helsinki, Finland with Kids

Helsinki is one of the loveliest cities we’ve had the pleasure to visit. It was incredibly clean and had a trendy feel. Looks aren’t everything though. While Tallinn offered loads to do with the kids, Helsinki had far fewer offerings. A day trip here with kids is enough to cover the basics in the winter months. […]

Tallinn, Estonia with Kids in Winter – a Blast

Tallinn, Estonia completely exceeded our expectations. This city oozes charm. Despite the cold we enjoyed every moment of our three-day visit. Tallinn is an easy 2.5 hour flight from Amsterdam. We booked on KLM but our flight was operated by Air Baltic. The kids were eager to use their CARES Flight Harnesses. They always love […]

San Gimignano, Italy: The Town of 14 Towers

San Gimignano was a blip on our itinerary. It was quite literally a footnote just in case we had some time to kill. But as we were enjoying the meal we had lovingly cooked at our family cooking class, the hostess asked if we were headed to San Gimignano. We said we weren’t sure we […]

House Hunters International

Remember when I was super pregnant (30 weeks) and thought it was a good idea to shoot for House Hunters International? I’m actually not allowed to share this post until our episode is about to air, but I thought I should write it while I can still remember all the funny details. If you don’t […]
