If you enjoy traveling but are reluctant to do so because your work schedule, or fear of having kids with you, take a look below. These are curated stories about our travel with our kids. Choose your travel adventure below.
Prior to having kids, Jen and I would travel based on the activities we wanted to participate in. We have always been on the adventurous side and enjoy being outdoors. Jen loves being in the snow, and I have always loved the beach. There are a few locations that allow for us to enjoy both the mountains and the coast. You will find that Santa Cruz is one of our favorite destinations to visit for this exact reason.
The infamous minivan… one of the most painful things a man can buy. It is also one of the most functional things we own. We recently upgraded to the much larger Sprinter Van.
When it’s not snowing, mountain biking has always been another hobby for us. Physical activity combined with beautiful scenery always makes for a good time for everyone.
Of course surfing is another favorite travel destination. The majority of our trips usually end up with us on a beach somewhere.
