Heritage Travel – taking our kids back to their roots
Whether we are from another state or another country, it’s important to always take our kids back to their heritage, back to where their people come from. Traveling to explore one’s heritage is the most rewarding kind of travel a parent can offer themselves and their children. A couple of weeks ago I had a […]
Thoughts on the Plane

Flying with kids – What goes around comes around
In the past week I have read a few stories about traveling with kids and the disparity between those who travel with them and those who don’t.

14 Ideas for a Fresh and Festive Holiday
What makes the holidays so festive are the sights, sound and smells that we experience from November until January. I realized this the other day when I went shopping for my regular weekly groceries and was swarmed by the sight of pies and holiday cookies, the smell of chocolate, nutmeg, cinnamon and other spices and […]
To travel for the holidays or not
I had all but made up my mind to stay put for the holidays and forego the hustle and bustle of holiday travel. As much as I love traveling with my kids and spending Thanksgiving and Christmas in either New York or South Carolina, Baltimore has a lot to offer too! Okay, okay, I’ll be honest here. Truth be […]
