Surviving [and Loving] Overseas Flights With a Baby
Looking back, this is probably one of the easiest ages to fly with a child. I didn’t have to worry about kid friendly snacks or drinks. At almost four months old, all she does is breastfeed. I didn’t have to plan out hours of entertainment. She still can sleep for hours or be entertained very… Continue reading Surviving [and Loving] Overseas Flights With a Baby

Fifteen Photos to Inspire You to Visit Singapore

It's one of the… Continue reading Fifteen Photos to Inspire You to Visit Singapore
Fifteen Photos to Inspire You to Visit Vietnam
Vietnam is a pretty great place. However, it had never really been at the top of my must-see locations until we moved to Asia. Then, I discovered low cost airlines that could transport me to relatively unknown places for limited finances.
