It's never easy letting go but I'm so proud of the woman she's becoming. I wish I had these experiences when I was her age.
This was fun to wake up to this morning π
One of my travel highlights last year was trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was my first time visiting the country and I absolutely loved it! Hereβs how my week went in this fascinating country: velvetescape.com/bosnia-and-h...

My daughter left for Milan today with a friend. She's 19 and has been to Italy a few times, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.
Funny how you spend years teaching your kids to love travel, then struggle when they want to do it without you.

"They won't remember."
We took our kids to Italy at 8 and 10. Eight years later, on a school trip, they found the exact same spots. Same pose. Same place. Nobody asked them to.
Then they framed the photos for Mother's Day.
They remember.

58% of parents say they're going screen-free on their next family trip.
Honestly? The hardest screen to put away is mine.
Planning, maps, restaurant reviews, photos. At some point the phone becomes a barrier between you and the place you traveled to see.

The new collectible DuckAbroad card for Maine is done. What do you think?
In 1776, a crowd toppled a 4,000-lb statue of King George III and melted it into 42,000 bullets.

I like how NotebookLM can take different sources and direction and build a good looking infographic.
It's just too bad that it makes so many basic spelling mistakes.
When was the last time your family had absolutely nowhere to be on vacation? No train to catch. No reservation to rush to.
Just...time.
Those are the moments your kids remember. New post on why the biggest family travel trend of 2026 is doing less.

Been working on some new updates...a 50 State card series for DuckAbroad.

We dragged our kids through museums thinking they'd learn something. They were bored. We were frustrated.
Nobody had fun.
Turns out we were doing educational travel all wrong.
The fix? Stop teaching. Start sparking curiosity.
