Weather in Morocco in August By Morocco Family Vacation
When I first planned our summer trip to Morocco in August, I had mixed feelings. I knew Morocco was hot in the summer, but I wasn’t sure how my kids would handle the heat. Traveling with two children my 7-year-old and 10-year-old means considering naps, hydration, sun protection, and activity pacing more than anything else. I wanted an adventure, but I also wanted it to be safe and enjoyable for them.

Weather in Morocco in July By Morocco Family Vacation

Do’s and Don’ts in Morocco for Families by Morocco Family Vacation
Before traveling to Morocco with my children, I did what most parents do I researched endlessly. Articles listed rules, warnings, and cultural tips, but many felt impersonal or overly dramatic. What I really wanted to know was simple: What actually matters when you’re there with kids?

Eating in Morocco With Food Allergies by Morocco Family Vacation
Traveling with food allergies is stressful no matter where you go. Traveling with kids who have food allergies can feel overwhelming. When we planned our family trip to Morocco, this was the part that worried me the most. I kept asking myself the same questions: Would people understand allergies? Would language be a barrier?

What I Learned Is Considered Disrespectful in Morocco by Morocco Family Vacation
Before visiting Morocco with my family, I read countless articles about customs, etiquette, and cultural differences. Still, I worried I’d make a mistake especially traveling as a mom with children who ask questions loudly, touch everything, and don’t always understand unspoken rules.

Hotels vs. Riads in Morocco for Families
Before our first family trip to Morocco, I didn’t fully understand the difference between riads and hotels. I’d heard the words riad, kasbah, riad but wasn’t sure what made them unique. As a mom, I cared most about one thing: what’s actually better for my kids?

Top 10 colonial hotels in sri lanka
Sri Lanka, once known as Ceylon, carries a rich colonial legacy shaped by Portuguese, Dutch, and British rule. This history is beautifully preserved in a number of colonial-era hotels scattered across the island. From grand seaside mansions to hill-country retreats and fortified townhouses, these hotels offer travelers a chance to step back in time while enjoying modern comfort. Staying in a colonial hotel is not just about accommodation—it is about experiencing stories, architecture, and traditions that have survived for centuries.

The Explorer
I am a follower of all things Travel and Adventure, my eyes light up at the discovery of a new flight route to Armenia, A camel trek in the Western Sahara or a Windsurfing trip in Naxos. I sometime discover information about destinations so far removed from any known tourist guides that I cannot even pinpoint them on the world map without tracing the steps of previous explorers with some kind of obsessive desire to find the answers. The thought of the unknown is what drives my spirit of adventure, I leave scribbles and notes in diaries about trips and ideas far into the future, even if they are not viable or I never embark on them, but each idea is what inspires and motivates me to keep taking those steps to find what is over the horizon.

Coastal Series: Part I (Washington State)
Washington does not introduce its coastline. It lets you find it... There’s no sudden reveal, no postcard moment engineered for the windshield. The coast arrives gradually, in pieces... Through rain-darkened trees, through logging towns that never rebranded themselves, through long stretches of road where the radio fades, and the sky lowers itself closer to the ground.
