Whogoslavia Means Traveling with Kids
How many folks have heard, "Travel now before you have kids?" When I didn't have kids and I was traveling it was, "It is good you're traveling now before you have kids" as if once I had kids, I'd park myself in a chair somewhere to do what, I don't know. I always figured as soon as a kid is born one should hit the road to get him or her used to hitting the road. When we adopted our daughter from Vietnam when she was 3 1/2 years old we were living in Singapore. Two weeks later we moved back to the U.S. and a two-month-long journey that brought us from Hawaii to Ohio through California, New Mexico and New York, some of which was done in a U-Haul.
Writer Ayun Halliday has really hit the road with her husband and kids. They're on a journey this month to various spots in the Balkans and she's chronicling the trip on one of her websites, Whogoslavia. Halliday is one of those writers' writers who discover a never-ending source of fodder in daily life because she gets out there and lives. For those of you who've thought about setting up your own travel website, hers is a clever example. For those of you who fancy traveling with kids, this might entice you to jump on in. I know it makes me think that we need to cash in our frequent flier miles soon and go somewhere further than where our car can take us.
