Guest post –  How to turn the “best traveling day” into “every day”

3/17/2014

Yes, I admit that I love London. Not that kind of love that is displayed on mugs and T-shirts, but the nurturing type, that turns a bad day into a good one by simply remembering a piece of grass from a natural park or the scent of a black tulip. You know what I am talking about, as each one of us tends to connect with its visited countries and cities through emotions and that is ok, as we are humans. London is definitely on my feelings meter and the best day ever was spent right after my arrival on Heathrow Airport.

I absolutely love traveling on a boat. There is something special about a cruise ship that really gets the blood flowing, and gets my creative juices going in full motion. I have been on many cruises, and was in search for something in Europe, that would provide me with some quality time with my kids.

Guest post – Our first Feliz Navidad from Costa Rica

This year has been one of incredible newness and adventure for our family.  At the start of 2013—New Year’s Eve, in fact—we flew away from normal and into a life of continuous travel.  Upon arrival in Costa Rica, we immediately fell in love with the warm, friendly and bio-diverse country.  Instead of staying three months as planned, we stayed the entire year.  It has gone by in a flash, much like a dream.  We’ve seen waterfalls, held toucans, and shooed away monkeys.  We’ve played on beaches that I never thought could be so beautiful and lived in neighborhoods where only Spanish is spoken.  It has truly been a cultural experience, and the first year of our new life comes to a close among the holiday festivities still so foreign to us.  The weeks leading up to the 25th have been remarkable as we enjoy the holiday experience of our current society, allow new traditions to evolve in our travels, and of course, find amazing presents.
