I Dream of Travel

Bruges

One thing I am trying to work on is my "living in the moment" attitude. I have a major tendency to wish away the present. It would go something like this, "London is great, but I can't wait to have a house where more than 2 people can fit in the kitchen." And now it might sound like this, "I love being home and having more than 2 people in my kitchen, but wasn't my London kitchen so sweet? I could stand in one spot and reach everything!" So in ode to my grass is greener attitude that I am working on, here is a beautiful and interesting blog that is all about travel and the beauty of life found in it--written by a mom (or maman since she is French) who travels happily with her children in tow. And since I'm allowing myself to wish away the present for only this blog post, "I wish I was in London so that I could easily travel to all these amazing places so easily."

BozAround is written by Vanessa Boz, the mother of a boy Wiley went to nursery school with in London. Vanessa travels extensively with her family so that her trips are always planned with children in mind. I read the blog some while we were in London and wished we could go to these beautiful places. Traveling from London was so easy, but I did not (of course) realize or appreciate it as much as I should have. Being pregnant/with a newborn the last bit of our time in London really reined us in and sent us driving around England itself instead of exploring the Continent.

So should you decide to travel around the world like this family, or maybe you are traveling to Europe soon and want some ideas for off the beaten path destinations or new takes on the classics, or maybe you are just going to couch-travel and let the gorgeous photos help you pretend you are on a Greek island instead of your couch--either way, stop by BozAround for inspiration on travel, modern products for children, and a short (free) vacay from everyday life.
