Looking to travel with kids when things are back to normal? Here are 5 mommies bloggers who will give you the travel tips and inspiration!
There is a famous saying by Saint Augustine which goes, “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page.”
And for a lot of us, this holds true. Gone are the days when travelling was only meant once a year, going to the same place or waiting for the schools to be closed for vacations. Today, travelling means getting to know more people, indulging in a variety of cuisines, and exploring new cultures.
Moreover, it is not only a hobby pursued by young solo travellers but also by people from varied backgrounds, especially women. What could be more empowering than to see moms raising the bars of travelling with their kids? They don’t just travel but do so while breaking all stereotypes attached to being a mommy!
Travelling and wandering has a different meaning and purpose for each of us. Other than making people feel confident and independent, it also gives them a sense of calm in travelling, especially with their kids. At the same time, the kids, from a very early age are exposed to a number of different cultures, thus making them more eager to learn and travel.
A number of women are breaking all stereotypes related to moms travelling with kids. And a lot of them also share their experiences to help other moms looking to travel. Whether it is with their beautiful Instagram posts or with their tips and tricks on their blogs, moms are extending helping hands to other fellow moms.
With the pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns, I haven’t really been able to travel as much as I would’ve. So I decided to live vicariously through these mommies who travel.
For all those looking to travel post the lockdown and all else, here are a few of my favourite mommies who travel. While I may not be travelling in the near future, these are the women whose accounts you have to check if you plan to travel with kids!
