    I’m going to start by saying that we aren’t experts when it comes to traveling with a baby. Due to our work (and life choices) we have been lucky enough to take Elodie on several trips, but there is still a lot to learn…especially now as she gets older and transitions from a baby to a walking toddler (which I am still in denial about). So I’ve compiled this guide based on the vast amount of research I’ve done – meaning I’ve read many blog posts, watched many reels, and chatted to my fellow travel-loving parent friends – and the experience we’ve had traveling with Elodie to 14 countries in the last eight months. I hope you find it helpful and...

    Whenever you’re traveling for business, it’s important to be selective of the clothes you need to pack.

Let's start off by saying that the two best ways to enjoy the snow are flying down the slopes on a set of skis (or so we've been told, as our experience in speedy skis is limited to the training slopes of Finland) or gliding across the snow on a cross-country skiing adventure (like that time we did it when visiting...

    Leading up to our departure, we obviously had to get rid of, *ahem, throw away and sell* a lot of our stuff. When crossing borders, every last gram is precious. With a baggage allowance of 30kg each, and hand luggage allowance of 7kg each, Steve and I were faced with quite a feat - how to compress and diminish our entire lives into 74kg. That’s like one person. An average height, average weight human that needed to eat all our belongings, and hop on-board with us. Phew. For those of you who know me well, I am a little bit of a clothing collector…ok ok, clothing hoarder. I own(ed) 7 watches, multiple pairs of boots, tons of dresses, and all the scarves. Well,...
