Life is good in New Zealand
“And if we just slow down just a little, slow down just a little… …we might find!” – Video of our fist days in New Zealand.
Little cosmos: Orakei Korako, Geyserland
Gushing geysers, hot springs, bubbling mud pools and some some crazy colourful silica terraces! Add to this questions of your kids: – And what is this? And what does it do? And how does it work? – and you will have an interesting day in cosmos!
Jump out of Auckland: Bethells Beach
Please forgive us. We had to start with holidays during those holidays. So before hard-core travelling, interesting places and valuable people’s stories – a bit of just relax on the beach. Will you survive it? :)
Sounds, smiles, smells: Pasifika Festival
Once a year you can do Pacific Islands’ hopping without moving from Auckland. And because the timing was perfect: we were in Auckland exactly at this weekend, and because after New Zealand we will do the real islands’ hopping – we had to visit Pasifika Festival.
Go with us!!
Our very first video, made during our flight from London to Hong Kong. Will you come with us for the trip?
Traveling with kids: toys
At home kids usually have their own room, usually full of toys. Or at least a corner of the room, usually full of toys. Small, big, dolls, teddy bears, legos, games, balls and rocking horses. How to put it all into a backpack when you travel??
Don’t trust the strangers?
Don’t talk with strangers, don’t take candies from them, don’t trust. Damm it, I have a little problem with this statement.
He can’t walk, but can fly!
When I was buying the flights, I mentioned that my brother Kuba is disable person, using his wheelchair and needs support at the airport.
Challenge accepted!
The Family Without Borders? Writing about travelling and about the family? And about crossing the borders? Let’s check it out.
WTF is Bahrain??
Be careful what you wish for! Some years ago, when I was in Jordan, I met few very smiling people from Bahrain. From where? Yes, I also had no idea about this island – a tiny country, in the heart of the Persian Gulf.
With or without kids
– So you were travelling for those weeks or months with kids?? – No, without – we like to answer. And you know that people are not always surprised?
Death + travelling :(
Exactly 2 years ago, we were sitting in some tiny cafe in the mountains of Honduras, long weeks without mobile network, trying to catch any internet and then we have received an email. That my beloved papa very suddenly passed away. This is the worst in travelling. That you are far, far away.
The next BiiiiiiiG trip
We said: Just do it? So we just did it! Last night we booked the flights for our next long, big, family, amazing trip. – Where to?!? – everybody asks.
Just do it!
„You have such a nice life, such a nice flat, such a nice husband, so nice kids“. I heard that some people stopped reading our blog, because „it’s not fair that some people are so happy, and some are not’. You know what? Bullshit.
See you next year!!
Just a short: HAPPY NEW YEAR for you all! We are very happy to have so many readers and want to make a little summery of this year 2013.
Traveling with kids: by train
A lot of people, usually no facilities for changing diapers, often delays or cancellations. We do love trains, also with kids. Do you?
Traveling with kids: by plane
Let’s start with the plane. In next posts from series „trip-with-kid“ will be about travelling by train, by car, on foot. But plane usually scares parent’s the most. So many hours, so many people. So what?
Sweet and cheap: couchsurfing
Bringing home a beautiful Danish girl, who will sleep half-naked in our room? No no, this would be too much ;) But Danish couple, or Palestinian family or brothers from Chile – yes yes, we really love the couchsurfing idea.
Minuses of living with other people
All the time people around, telling you what to do, eating up your chocolate?? Awful this living with other people ;)
Sharing HOME with others
As a student you live with parents, in the students’ dorm or in the shared flat. Then, as a couple or fresh married couple – it also happens to live with friends (especially here: in Germany). But once the girl become pregnant – fast fast fast – everybody is moving in to their own place. Read More
