Why I still believe in traveling with kids, even after an emergency evacuation On January 28, 2025, I stood in my home in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, knowing we were about to leave it all behind and unsure if we’d ever come back. It was surreal. Just days earlier, we had been living our…
“It’s too hard.”“They won’t remember it.”“Isn’t that dangerous?” If you’ve said (or heard) any of these, you’re in good company, we’ve heard it often too.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of living in or visiting 40 countries, some solo, some with friends, some with family. Now, as a mom of two young children, travel looks a…
In our fast-paced society, the idea of slowing down can feel counterintuitive—especially when it comes to travel. With limited vacation days, it’s easy to want to create a packed itinerary for your next family vacation. I’ve been there and have often crammed way too much into a short time, making our vacations anything but relaxing….
Whether it’s a candid shot of the kids splashing in a lake, a scenic family hike, or a silly photo of everyone crammed in the car, captions can help preserve those memories and bring them to life. Even if they don’t make it to social media, these family trip captions are great for sharing with…
