You can take your kids both younger and older to most places in the world and make it a memorable vacation. There is nothing more special than being able to share the world with your own family and make your kids cultural. As an expat, I am so grateful I can travel to see family and friends around the world with my three children in tow. We save for special trips and we plan strategically through out the year. There are so many kid friendly places to travel.
U.S.A
It’s where I was born and still call home every summer with my kids. The U.S.A has 50 states to visit, each unique in their own right. We frequent the west coast as much as the east coast for our family holidays. You can expect every type of holiday available in the U.S.A with beautiful beaches and glorious mountain ranges and everything in between.
U.K.
U.K. has so much to offer with a combine country of Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England it’s a great place for family holidays with the kids and easy to travel around via train, plane or a big family road trip. You have the option of a quiet, country estate holiday to a big city sightseeing holiday. The choice is yours in the U.K..

Tips on Travelling Adults
It’s just as important to book those adult only holidays too. We love travelling with our kids and seeing the world with them but it’s nice to have some romantic adventures on our own too. This gets easier as the kids get older to leave them with grandparents.
