MOM – he is touching me. MOM – she looked at me. MOM – he doesn’t want to play with me. MOM – she is in my room. MOM – he punched me [in minecraft]. MOM – she destroyed my house [again, in minecraft]. Familiar yet?! 🤔
Tips when travelling with kids
(not in any particular order): Traveling with kids is never easy. However, over the last 7 years, we have learned a thing or two about travelling abroad with kids.

Life through my hazel eyes.
This idea of starting a motherhood/ lifestyle blog has been on my mind for years. I always felt like every mom has her own experiences and we all have something to offer in the advice category.

I have learned a lot about motherhood and life through my own trials and tribulations but also from my mom, aunts, and girlfriends. I look forward to sharing this with my followers.
