Packing is one of the tedious things to do when preparing for a trip. And if packing all the clothes, toiletries, gears and whatever else one needs in a trip isn’t stressful enough, parents also have to arrange everything that their children want and need for the same trip. And believe me, children require more stuff to bring than adults would.

I’ve been bringing my son to my out-of-town trips as early as 11 months old. These trips, though, were only for a day and usually with…

I catch a cab in Paraguay to go through Brazil and on to Argentina.  In how many places can you do that?  For those of you counting countries and too cheap to spring for a Brazil visa, this is a cheap way to cut corners, literally, without the formalities.  In retrospect $50 for a Paraguay visa and tip seems like a waste, but at least the hotel was cheap, so balanced out.  Of course the hotel lady in Asuncion short-changed me while warning me about street thieves, oldest trick in the book. …

In our mission to inspire and inform Grown-up Travellers we begin a series of articles containing ideas for alternative things to do and see in well-known destinations.

And they don’t come much more well-known than London…

Quite – it seemed like the ideal place to start. London reigns supreme as the most popular city destination in Europe for tourist arrivals according to Euromonitor International’s …

The best part of any trip is the unexpected- the John Lennon Wall in Prague was certainly that. John Lennon? You have to be kidding me... what does he have to do with a wall in Prague...he never lived there

Since the 1980s this wall opposite the French Embassy in Prague, located in a quiet square, has been filled with John Lennon inspired graffiti and lyrics from the Beatles hits. A blaze of colour greeted me – a modern feel in the midst of a city with stunning ancient architecture…

Hi bloggers and anyone else who stumbles upon this article...

I am new to the Travel blog Exchange and so forgive me if this post is, short, sweet and/or a little shoddy in relation to other posts!

I am a mum of 4 with a passion for travel. The ages of my children are quite well spaced out.... 2, 18, 21 and 26. My two year old has travelled more in the past 2 years than I did from the age of 0-30! So far experiencing parts of the UK, France, Spain, Australia and New…

You would expect a restaurant that you are taken to by your tour guide when on a Princess cruise  to be touristy and unexceptional……….this is what we found across the board on our shore excursions with TWO exceptions. Marmita Restaurant, in the tiny village of Megalochori on Santorini, was one.…

At the time of tapping this out I’ve been living here in Trondheim, central Norway for the best part of 14 years. It’s been quite a roller-coaster ride as during that time I’ve got married, become a father to two children, learnt the language, worked in the restaurant business, started my own business, moved house untold times before finally having a home built here and settling in. Amongst other things.…

As soon as we had decided we would travel to Germany last summer, I knew I wanted to go to Schwangau, a place we’d first visited in 2007 while I was pregnant. I thought I wanted to return so we could wow our princess-crazed preschooler with Neuschwanstein, a real and quite picturesque castle. I would probably concede that I also wanted to show her the …

On Sunday, January 22nd, a friend and I visited the famous 221B Baker Street. Most people will know this is as the address of the so-famous-you-might-think-he's-real Sherlock Holmes and I suppose having a museum in his name doesn't help that either.…

In Killin, The wide river rushes right through the middle of town,forking in two, under a stone bridge that is only wide enough for one car. On the far side of the bridge, a single lane winds down to the Killin Hotel, which used to be a jail, and on to where the river slows down enough to be able to wade in and fish and paddle small row-boats in the summer. On the near side of the bridge is a lane and…

Not too many countries on earth have a state budget made separately for the Railways, neither have they inspired authors and filmmakers for ages. The Indian Railways, carrying 30 million passengers and joining 65,000 km of India, isn’t unique only for these numbers, but for the diversity it carries along. It joins the length and breadth of India and touches her heart like no one else does. Probably the best way to see India is by taking a train ride, sneaking into her undiscovered cultures,…
