One thing you should know about our family is that One thing you should know about our family is that we are HUGE UNC fans! Mike went to graduate school there and I commuted to Chapel Hill just about every weekend for two years from my consulting job. You can’t spend any time in Chapel HIll and not become a devoted basketball fan! 🏀And naturally, we have raised our kids to bleed Carolina blue: they’ve always worn the gear, watched all the basketball games, fly the flag on game day, and have made multiple trips across the country to visit the campus. In 2016, we decided to follow the team to Maui for the Maui Invitational. 🌺🌴The tournament is held over Thanksgiving week every year in Lahaina, but UNC attends only every 4th year. That year, UNC won the entire tournament and we were there for every game! It was an amazing way to kick off the college basketball season. We decided from that point on, we would spend every 4th Thanksgiving on Maui cheering for the Tar Heels. 2020 is the year we were supposed to go back to Maui. The tournament wasn’t canceled, but it was moved to Asheville, NC and we decided not to go. It’s a bummer to miss out this year, but we’ll be cheering them on from home with our flag flying proud. Go Heels! Maui 2024!🌈

STAYCATION DONE! . . ...and just like that it’s STAYCATION DONE! . . ...and just like that it’s all done...our first staycation in a long time and our first holiday post COVID-19. If I have to give you one piece of advice it would be to research research research where you’re going. There are still lots of places not open yet or running at a very reduced service. It’s a shame because I always loved a little bit of the element of surprise when going on holiday; hoping I’d uncover a gem when we got there. However in this new world it’s a little difficult. For example, some restaurants remain closed, are offering a different menu or are only allowing half the number of diners in than they normally would. We also found a number attractions are remaining closed until mid-August while they finalise arrangements. Perhaps further through the summer this will all change, who knows, but it can never hurt to be prepared! . . . #familytravel #travellingwithkids #exploreengland #loveuk #childhoodunplugged #motherhoodunplugged #ukmum #familylife #familytrip #daysoutwithkids #ourtribetravels #familytravels #thelakedistrict #thewesternlakes #lakedistrict #staycation #ukstaycation #lakedistrictwithkids #makeamazingmemories

The highlight of our day but not without a bit of The highlight of our day but not without a bit of effort... We arrived at More London around 12:30pm and it wasn't working. 😬 One of the mums who were around told me that it’s usually closed from 12pm to 2pm! . . The kids disappointment was so big that we decided to wait and hope for the best! Lucky that we usually have some things in the car: mats, colouring book and pens. They managed to entertain themselves in the shade for one hour and a half until the BIG moment. At 2pm on the dot they were back again and it sounded like the beginning of a gig... all the kids who were patiently waiting stood up and ran like crazy towards the fountains! Yes, “good things come to those who wait”! 😜 . . . 📣the place was very crowded so totally recommend to go early in the morning instead. . . . #toddlersdayout #daysoutforkids #activitiesforkids #londonmums #parenthoodblogger #coolthingstodowithkids #familyactivities #instamums #littlelondon #mumbloggeruk #parentingtheshitoutoflife #kidsactivities #londonparents #parklife #funinthesun #summerinlondon #sunnylondon #minilondoners #ourtribetravels

There’s just some moments in life that you will There’s just some moments in life that you will never forget. They stay with you forever and become a defining moment. Our trek to Machu Picchu was just that. . When we arrived to the top it was like all our travels had been leading us here. Everything that we had done to get to this point as a family over the last two years was actualized in the sheer magnitude of experiencing this wonder. Following our dreams had truly led us here, a place I never thought we would be able to visit as a family. . We left Machu Picchu surer than ever that this is life we were meant lead as a family. We will never stop following this dream. ❤️ . . . . . #thegotofamily #familymoments #familytraveller #gowithnugget #theheartcaptured #gotogether #wheretonext #machupicchu #perutravel #exploreperu #traveltogether #our_everyday_moments #wondersoftheworld #familyportraits #travelingtogether #travelkids #gonow #let_there_be_delight #shareyourstory #ourtribetravels #hellofrom #liveyourbestlife #myhappyplace

MONDAY MONDAY . . It comes round so quickly doesn’t it?!?! This week is a busy one for us, homeschooling continues as we prepare for my little boy’s 7th birthday! He had wanted a Pokemon bouncy castle party with his friends, but sadly that won’t be able to go ahead now. We have some surprises planned for him, which I hope he’ll enjoy just as much. . . This week we will hopefully hear confirmation of the plans for the “air bridges” enabling us to travel abroad. What do you think? Will it happen? Would you travel if you could? I have to be honest and say I’m not convinced...as much as I would love to hop on a plane, I think there are still too many risks - am I wrong? I’d love to know what you think.... . . For the moment, I think we’ll just be enjoying the beautiful beaches the UK has to offer like we did on Saturday. Hope you all have a good week 😊 . . . #familytravel #travellingwithkids #exploreengland #loveuk #familydayout #childhoodunplugged #motherhoodunplugged #lockdownlife #ukmum #familylife #familytrip #daysoutwithkids #ourtribetravels #familytravels #westwittering #ukcoast #staycation #ukbeach #ukbeaches #ukstaycation

🌟Looking at life in a new perspective. We have 🌟Looking at life in a new perspective. We have been taking photos in the park and at a wild flowers field we found near home since we were allowed to go out for limited walks. Since then we have noticed things that never noticed before. The stillness of the mornings, the vivid colours of the flowers and the horizon clear and crisp. We have noticed the variation in size and colours of the flowers, the beautiful shape of the clouds in the afternoons, and the music coming from the wind while you walk. This is the beauty of our nature that we got to protect. Please be mindful of where you leave your trash as leaving abandoned plastic on the floor generates toxic effects. We always take our trash with us home if there is no any trash bins near us. Have a great weekend everyone😉. . . . 🌟- Mirando la vida desde una nueva perspectiva. Hemos estado haciendo fotos en el parque y en un campo de flores silvestres que encontramos cerca de casa, desde qué nos permitieron salir a dar paseos. Desde entonces hemos notado cosas qué nunca antes habíamos notado. La tranquilidad de las mañanas, los colores vivos de las flores y el horizonte claro y nítido. Hemos notado la variación en el tamaño y los colores de las flores, la hermosa forma de las nubes en las tardes y la música que te toca el viento mientras caminas. Esta es la belleza de nuestra naturaleza qué tenemos que proteger. Debemos ser cuidadosos, en dónde dejamos la basura, ya qué; dejar el plástico tirado en el suelo genera efectos tóxicos. Nosotros siempre nos llevamos nuestra basura a casa si no hay ningún cubo de basura cerca. Qué tengan un hermoso fin de semana!😉. . . . . . . #preciousmoments #travellingmum #letthemexplore #magicofthewildones #letsfollowthekids #magicofchildhood #familyvacations #passportcollective #familytravels #travellingfamily #travelfam #familyadventure #travellingkids #jetserfam #loveyourtimetogether #familieswhotravel #travelmadfam #ourtribetravels #familygo #natureflowerslovers

We are on the second day of lockdown in Nepal. We We are on the second day of lockdown in Nepal. We were thinking about staying here then, before we knew it, the country was on lockdown and all flights were suspended so the decision was taken out of our hands. I feel good about being here. We are in a very welcoming, family run hotel who have said they will look after us for as long as we are here. They cook for us, we have a balcony, a roof terrace and a small garden, we can leave to get food and medicine and we have Internet, phew! One of the biggest reasons I’m happy we’re here is that it’s not that much of a change for Honor. Yes, she knows we can’t go out for walks or play dates (there is another British family with two boys Honor’s age riding this thing out in a hotel over the road from us), but being together as a family of three, living in a small space, in a hotel, FaceTiming grandma and grandad and homeschooling are very normal to her. I couldn’t imagine the heart ache she would have experienced if we had returned to the UK and then had to tell her she couldn’t see anyone or play with her friends. So here we are, we don’t know how long we’ll be here, all we know is that we’ll have to wait a little bit longer than we expected for our hugs with friends and family and grandma’s Sunday roast. . . . . #silverlinings #cosmickidsyoga #lockdownnepal #lockdown #stuckinnepal #nepalwithkids #travelkids #fulltimetravel #fulltimetravelfamily #backpackingfamily #nomadicfamily #ourtribetravels #nepal

Our first hike in Nepal was a mother and daughter Our first hike in Nepal was a mother and daughter affair. We hiked up to Sarangkot village which overlooks Pokhara and is the perfect spot for sunrise over the Himalayas... unless it rains, then you can’t see anything 😫. We hiked up the afternoon before which took about 2.5 hours from the centre of Pokhara Lakeside and we had no trouble finding cheap lodgings in Sarangkot... to enjoy the rain 😭 . . #sarangkot #pokharalakeside #pokhara #nepalwithkids #backpackingnepal #travelnepal #nepaltravel #travelkids #fulltimetravel #fulltimetravelfamily #backpackingfamily #nomadicfamily #ourtribetravels #everywherefamilies #worldschooling #nepal #hikingwithkids #trekkingwithkids #kidswhohike #visitnepal

Things are changing quickly... only a few days ago Things are changing quickly... only a few days ago we were happy with the prospect of staying in Nepal for the next two, three months? But then came the realisation that international travel is going to be so adversely affected that those three months could turn into six, maybe even a year. I love dal baht, but not that much!!! Thank you to officialtheroyalgurkharifles and the British Embassay in Nepal for making our journey back to Kathmandu so easy. Now we are just waiting to see when we can fly back to the UK. . . . #strandedinnepal #repatriation #pokharalakeside #pokhara #royalgurkharifles #nepalwithkids #travelkids #fulltimetravel #fulltimetravelfamily #backpackingfamily #nomadicfamily #ourtribetravels #nepal

We made it! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Three days We made it! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Three days of travel, three kids and about 33 pieces of luggage later we are ready to begin our new life here in Aberdeen...after our quarantine stint;) • We left here for France as newlyweds almost 13 years ago, just the two of us. With minimal luggage, no expectations and no clue where it would all lead. From France we moved to Norway, Texas and Saudi collecting fridge magnets and babies along the way! • Now we are back with much more luggage, 3 extra humans and still no clue where it will all lead! There’s so much to think about and organize but for now I’m enjoying the little things...fresh air when I open a window, filing the kettle from the sink, hanging the washing outside and a bottle of Prosecco chilling in the fridge (sorry Saudi chums 😳)! • We don’t know if that’s the end of our time living abroad, but for now this is home and for the kids this is “abroad” because they’ve never lived here! Everything is exciting for them and seeing it through their eyes, I’m realizing how much we took for granted before. We can’t wait to go looking for a family home, get out exploring and meet up with friends and family!! Nine days to go 😷 until then I’ll mostly be hanging out washing and filling the kettle from the tap! • Dunne family b&b will be opening soon for anyone that wants to come visit 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿♥️ • • #aberdeen #aberdeencity #thegranitecity #scotlandexplore #scottishscenes #scottishexpat #expatfamilyinscotland #thirdculturekids #3ck #expatfamily #expatmum #ourtribetravels #globalkidsclub #humansofeverywhere #globalfamily #settinguphome #livinglocal #locallife #nextchapter #exploreaberdeen #scottishhome
