NOW is the perfect time to visit Egypt Part 1

We have not disappeared off the face of the earth for the past week and a half. Rather we have been exploring Egypt with Egypt Uncovered on their Nile Explorer tour and in particular, the southern area near Sudan where the Nubian people of Egypt live. We traveled to Cairo via Istanbul, and it was a bit of […]

Fine Dining at Fiori di Murano Sanremo Italy

The minute you walk into Fiori di Murano at the Royal Hotel Sanremo your eyes fixed on the glass flowers.  These appear suspended from the ceiling, as chandeliers, on the walls, and artistically decorate this magnificent restaurant. We have made a reservation for the smaller of the two dining rooms, with the larger being a grand room […]

Luxury Royal Hotel Sanremo at Riviera dei Fiori

As we drive along the coast of Italy today, we are delighted to see the ocean for the first time in months, and we feel we are leaving Winter behind us.  It is a beautiful seaside known as Riviera Dei Fiori, The Riviera of Flowers – Sanremo. You may have grown up hearing of Sanremo as […]

Visiting Alexandria Egypt for a day

Here we are in Country 52 of our World Journey, as we travel and learn through World-schooling as we go. We have been in Egypt for three days now, and it is time to meet a few others in our tour group. We have left behind the European Schengen Zone and our car, and I […]

I am madly in love with world-schooling

My friend Annalisa from Mom with Backpack has invited us to Italy to be part of the Children’s Tour in Italy. Here we meet up with many other Italian travel bloggers, and I also meet an amazing and positive family. The Mum, Elisa is also a travel and world-schooling blogger. So a little more about world-schooling. […]

Ten Things to do for kids in snowy Liechtenstein

Birthday Celebrations for Explorason Turning Ten and Ten “S” Things to do in Liechtenstein One week ago, I wasn’t quite sure where we would be for my son’s 10th Birthday. Last year we planned our travels around it for months and decided as he was born on St. Patrick’s Day that it had to be […]

Vaduz Liechtenstein – the perfect place to base ourselves

We leave Munich, Germany after four glorious sunny days, and drive through the countryside.  I feel the change in the weather, and suddenly we are seeing snow on the sides of the road. The housing styles also are varying from what we have seen in Eastern Europe the past few months. We sadly leave our […]

Radio Interview with Merkury Radio Poznan Poland

  When we visited Poznan Poland (you can read about it here) it was time to share and publicly promote Exploramum and Explorason’s visit to Poznan. We had been asked for a Radio interview at Merkury Radio. Our friend Silvia (we reunited with her 2 nights ago after meeting originally in Guatemala) picked us up […]

Feeling like Millionaires in Munich

Here we are – at the Nymphenburg Palace just on the outskirts of central Munich Germany, and it is massive. And I mean really, really grand and massive.  In the immediate area is a beer garden and restaurants, and an area you could spend a whole day exploring. Munich has so much to see and […]

Munich Is So Much More Than Just Beer Halls

After our mad dash from Prague to Munich (you can read about that here) we arrived late in the evening. We divided our Munich stay into two parts. We wanted to be central to see the inner city, and then we wanted to head out of the city to explore that area, so I will […]

Escape the crowds – visit Prague in Winter

Prague has always been a city I have dreamed of visiting, and I am so glad we are finally here, walking these historical cobblestone streets. We arrived with the GPS driving me ‘smack bang’ through the old historical town, and right up to the hill overlooking the city.  Oh, it was so beautiful.  We were […]

The Golden Key to Prague

The sun is setting outside of our window, and the sky starts to twinkle with the lights of the historical town, and Petrin Tower is lit in the distance on the nearby hill. It is here I sit at my window and am in awe of how silent the evening is, yet we are in […]
