Simply Travel: Inspiring Family Adventures

Welcome to Simply Travel: Inspiring Family Adventures and Lasting Memories

I’m beyond excited to introduce you to Simply Travel—a personal blog where I’ll be sharing my love for exploring the world with my family. Here, you’ll find a little bit of everything: family-friendly travel tips, thoughtfully planned itineraries, special tours, and adventurous activities that are perfect for creating lasting memories with your kiddos.

As a young girl, I always looked forward to our family roadtrips that included activities like hiking, white water rafting, alpine slides, ice skating, skiing and even bungee jumping (yes!) and now as a mom, I’m even more passionate about finding ways to recreate these adventures with my children. I am by no means an expert but I love to pass along what I have learned along the way and what others have shared with me. I’ll be sharing personal experiences, showcasing breathtaking photos, and offering tips on how to make travel both adventurous and memorable.

As a mom of a senior and a junior in high school, I feel the pull of time more than ever. The days blur together—cross country meets, dance performances, and late-night study sessions—but it’s these trips that stand out, defining our family’s story. Traveling together allows me to see the world through my children’s eyes, and each adventure we take reminds me how fleeting these moments are.

The years pass in the blink of an eye, but these experiences slow things down, if only for a little while. Our family vacations, whether simple weekend getaways or more adventurous excursions, become the threads that weave together our most treasured memories. There’s something about seeing my kids’ excitement, their curiosity about the world, that makes these moments so special. These trips are not just vacations—they’re chapters in our family’s story, moments that I’ll hold onto long after my kids have ventured out on their own.

At the heart of Simply Travel is the belief that the best memories are made through shared experiences. My hope is that this blog becomes a source of inspiration and a practical guide for families wanting to explore the world together. Let’s embrace the adventures, big and small, and create memories that last a lifetime.

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or just starting to plan your first family trip, I can’t wait to share this journey with you. Stay tuned for the stories, photos, and tips that will help you create beautiful travel memories with your loved ones.
