What happens when you have a website about spiritual travel, and then you have kids? Well, you make a website about spiritual travel AND traveling with kids. Most of my trips these days are with Sage (4) and Lavender (3), so come along as we explore our homeland, Taiwan, and beyond!
Simply put, we loved Budapest. It was our favorite big city out of the two months we spent in Central Europe, and we enjoyed it more than the three days we spent in Prague the week before (sorry Prague)! Just like Prague, there are loads of things to do in Budapest with kids, but for …

We visited Prague with our two young kids (age 4 & 5) in late November, toward the end of our two-month trip in Central Europe. Our Prague stop was sandwiched between a great week in Bavaria and a visit to stunning Cesky Krumlov in southern Czech Republic before we moved on to Vienna and Budapest. …

The tiny village of Skradin in Croatia is the kind of place most travelers pass through to get somewhere else (in this case Krka National Park), but once they see it, they vow to someday return and stay. That’s the impression we picked up of Skradin while planning our family trip to Croatia, so we …

Dubrovnik is by far the most popular and touristy city on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. It was certainly the most expensive city on our trip across Croatia with kids. Dubrovnik is so popular that the city has considered setting limits on how many tourists can enter it per day. UNESCO has threatened to take …

The medieval walled city of Kotor in Montenegro is one of the great gems of the Adriatic coast in southeastern Europe. To put it bluntly, we loved visiting Kotor with our kids. Montenegro was the 4th out of 11 countries we’re visiting on our current trip, and it was our kids’ favorite thus far. According …
In 2013, my wife and I had an unforgettable honeymoon in Italy. Our favorite place by a long shot was Cinque Terre (here are 20 reasons we loved it). Now, six years later and with two children in tow, we headed back to Italy again and choose to visit the equally impressive Amalfi Coast with …

Istanbul is without a doubt one of the great cities of the world. It is ancient Byzantium & Constantinople, the largest city in Europe, home of the Aya Sofya (Hagia Sophia), and the only metropolis in the world to straddle two continents. But what does this all mean to a 4 and 5 year old? …
