Yes, that’s THE great Pyramid of Giza, directly Yes, that’s THE great Pyramid of Giza, directly off of our balcony. Was the price of this experience worth it? We say yes. Let’s break it down.

1️⃣ A policy we have adopted is “do it right the first time and have no regrets.” We may only do Egypt once in our lives, so we wanted to do it well. Staying in a room overlooking a Wonder of the World was on our bucket list so it was an easy choice, despite the price.

2️⃣ Giza is actually a 40+ minute drive away from Cairo. It’s not as accessible as you think if you’re staying in Cairo. This makes staying in Giza a wise decision, and our hotel was the clear top choice.

3️⃣ The earlier you get to the pyramids, the better. We were up at 6:30, ate our breakfast, and were standing at the pyramids by 8 am. Way before the huge tourist crowds. (And it’s totally worth getting up early.)

4️⃣ We were in Cairo for 5 days but we only stayed at @marriottmenahousecairo for 2 nights. This made it much more affordable.

What do you think? Would you splurge on this experience? 🇪🇬

These family traditions have developed over years These family traditions have developed over years of traveling and hundreds of flights.

You may have noticed how tiny and sleek my deodorant was. It’s not travel size. That’s just the normal size it comes in!! I put a tiny drop on my pits and it lasts me 3 days! Best deodorant ever- especially for travel! It’s called @nuud.care and if you want 20% off your first order comment LINK and I’ll send you our 20% discount code 😉

To expand upon the shower tradition, we can’t count how many times it has happened that we have had to go 3+ days without showering due to flight delays/cancellations and travel hiccups. 😅😅

☕️☕️☕️ Adorable OLOG mugs from @nazarethpottery 

Comment your pre-travel day travel traditions!! Inspire us! Maybe we will need to add them to our list!! 😁😉

In a culture that encourages postponing fatherhood In a culture that encourages postponing fatherhood, I unapologetically rebel. 

Travel is my passion. But the truth is that the greatest trips I have ever been on are the ones with my child. 

Every trip teaches us new lessons, but the biggest lesson is that sharing the world with our babies and seeing their endless joy is the best way to spend an adventure.

👏🏼There is no other way I would rather be spending my twenties than sharing my passions with my family. ❤️

Feel free to share with a proud father :) 💪🏼👨‍👦

Our rule for airport snacks is bring the healthies Our rule for airport snacks is bring the healthiest least messy option!

🍌🍊🫐This means fruits with thick skins and preferably dont stain clothes easily. Hence the blueberries, bananas, and oranges.

🥨🥨We like our pretzels THICK because they don’t get crushed as easily during the travel day.

✈️👂👂The fruit pouch is specifically reserved for take off and landing. The sucking motion helps your toddler handle his/her ear pain.

What’s your favorite travel snack for your kids? Comment below!! ⬇️

Rules for Eating in India ⬇️ Our kid LOVES hi Rules for Eating in India ⬇️

Our kid LOVES his international food but we had to be extra careful during our trip. There’s a whole list of food/drink to avoid when traveling to India because it will make foreigners sick. By following these rules no one got sick and all three of us loved the variety of Indian cuisine we were able to eat.

👉🏻 Only eat at trusted restaurants. All of the meals you see us eating are from 5-star hotels or restaurants that our Indian friend recommended.

👉🏻 ABSOLUTELY NO STREET FOOD ❌ Even local Indians won’t eat the street food if they’ve been away from home long enough because their stomachs can’t handle it.

👉🏻 Only eat fruit with thick skin (bananas and oranges)

👉🏻 Don’t drink the tap water. Along this note, avoid fresh produce that would have been washed with water. We didn’t order any salads during our stay.

‌Have you been to India?? Have you taken your kids? Did they like the food!? Nicola loved it! Do you have any other tips to add? ⬇️⬇️

One month of no Netflix and here are our thoughts One month of no Netflix and here are our thoughts ⬇️

1️⃣ We literally don’t have TIME for TV. Netflix has turned into background shows for us. If there’s a rare occasion where we do want to watch a specific film, we rent it on its own.

2️⃣ We want to invest our little FREE TIME making family memories (preferably in the great outdoors!🌳🌎)

3️⃣ We want to invest our MONEY in more fulfilling entertainment that aligns with our values.

 👉🏻Our subscription money is now going towards donating to Angel Studios and subscribing to YouTube Ad Free.

❓Why Angel Studios? → We love supporting Christian creators 👏🏼

❓Why YouTube? → We get to handpick the channels that we subscribe to. For our family this is mainly Multi-lingual children shows. 🇮🇹🇲🇽 DM us for our favorite shows!

Have you thought about cutting down on your Netflix? Or just your TV consumption in general? 

👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻We challenge you to a month of limited or no TV! 

⤵️⤵️Comment if you want to join the challenge!
