Nairobi might be the only place in the world where you can spot rhinos with a city skyline behind them 🦏🌆
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
We visited Nairobi National Park with three kids three and under (!!) and it ended up being one of the easiest, most rewarding safari experiences.
The wildest part? It’s literally just a short drive from the city center—you can go from downtown Nairobi to spotting lions and rhinos in under 30 minutes.
You can self-drive or hire a private guide. Either way, the wildlife viewing is incredible (we saw SO many rhinos).
Add a picnic inside the park, then pair it with a visit to Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to see rescued baby elephants and rhinos.
If you’re visiting Nairobi, this is an absolute must. Especially with little ones.

Thousands of unread emails. Hundreds of text messages I haven’t responded to.
Flights, content creation, school logistics, edits, visas — usually all open at the same time. When you’re juggling that many tabs, you need a laptop that can actually keep up.
My laptop is powered by AMD Ryzen AI and is built for real multitasking, lets me run AI tools directly on my laptop (even offline), and keeps my editing workflow moving fast.
Multitasking is a lifestyle. Good thing this one’s built for it.

There’s something really special about finding a place that feels like your own childhood… and what you always dreamed of for your own kid 🤍

Tucked away in the Cape Winelands, about an hour from Cape Town, South Africa, @camp.canoe is one of those places that somehow feels both completely off-grid and perfectly convenient.
Set on one of my favorite family-friendly wine farms, @boschendal, you get the best of both worlds—wide open space, no distractions, and just enough nearby to make it effortless with little ones (and fun for the adults).
Days here look like:
– swimming in the dam
– slow mornings outside
– wood-fired hot tub soaks
– braai (bbq) under the stars
It’s a little bit luxe, it’s nostalgic, and it’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay just a little bit longer. ✨

Spending a year abroad sounds exciting… until you see the planning involved.

Flights, edits, contracts, itineraries — not to mention the admin of being a mom. I’m usually running everything at once, so having a laptop that can keep up makes a huge difference.
I’ve been using an AMD Ryzen AI–powered laptop to keep everything organized, run AI tools even when WiFi isn’t available, and work from wherever we happen to be in the world.
So I can finish what I need to do… and get back to what’s most important ❤️

I’m on hostelbookers mailing list, and just checked their travel blogger awards post and i’ve been quickly going through the list, looking for some awesome bloggers. Made my way to yours, saw this video, and got inspired!
Don’t you just hate those super long flights (24hrs or more), or the brutal long haul, bus rides (19hrs or more), and at the end of those trips, you now resemble a zombie, clothes all tattered and dirty, you’re missing flesh around the face, a few front teeth and even an eye ball, perhaps. Well folks, to get that rested look, I’d like to share with you my one and only travel make up tip that’ll you’ll ever need:
step 1 – take a big, as wide as you can bite on the passenger directly next to you. within seconds, this person will turn into a zombie and begin infecting the next person. the process will continue to repeat itself, until all passengers are now zombies. screw, looking rested. be a zombie.
adios.
