about Me
Hello! I’m Shelby.
My style of traveling…
I love to have a plan but not for every minute. I do a TON of research before I go so I know where I want to go and what I want to experience.
I love to incorporate things I love in my daily life and discover similar places in the new city. Especially with family, I find that the kids connect more with something that is familar yet different. I go in to detail on my Tips and Tricks page.
Family vacations can be magical
We have been taking family vacations since our kids were little. We usually needed to see the sun come February so we’d go somewhere sunny on a beach with a pool. That was great but once they were a little older, they also wanted to see more of the world and so did we.
We’ve traveled to over 9 countries and many cities in the US since then. We’ve figured out how to ensure you AND your kids have fun and everyone gets to see what they want to.

The 16th Birthday Trip…
While we enjoy traveling the 4 of us, we also want to have some one on one time with our kids. We have gifted each kid a trip of their choice with each parent. You can set any parameter you’d like but we were open and so far, we’ve had amazing experiences!
What is a good age to start traveling internationally?
I was 12 on my first vacation to Europe. I have vivid memories from our trip.
Our first BIG int’l trip as a family, our kids were 15 and 10.
