I love seeing new places, going on holiday and travelling with my family. Travel and kids may not always seem like the best idea but in the last few years I have learnt so much from it and now it feels so natural and each time we go I am eager to get away again on the next adventure. Whether it is a holiday in the UK or abroad we have fun whatever we get up to and it is always the highlight of my year and we love sharing this with you. You will also find tips and tricks, destination and tour ideas, recommendations (from both myself and companies) and eco-conscious travel.

After months of Covid restrictions, many people are looking forward to taking their first real vacation. However, the Covid-19 pandemic is by no means over, meaning that travel and vacation conditions have yet to return to normal.

That said, there is a chance that you could get sick or infect a loved one, so it’s important that you do not become complacent about safety precautions. Here are factors to consider when planning your vacation during the pandemic.
