What a great goal to take your kids to as many countries as possible It will really help to broaden their horizons.

What a great idea! Both DH and I are blessed to have parents who love travelling and we yearn to give the same experience to our children. Fortunately, they travel well and are adaptable! .

We love it that you love travelling too. Your blogs are my favourite travel blogs. The writing and the photos together paint such a wonderful picture of your family adventures!

My youngest son has an ambition to go to all the hard rock cafés in the world. For his 10th birthday we had this sign made for him of the first 10 he has visited - many in conjunction with a Disney cruise or a WDW visit. I was a little embarrassed that he had been to this many so young but he loved the sign. I haven't got the heart to tell him there are 160 to go......

That's awesome! If he's been to 10 so far, there's no reason why he couldn't visit them all someday

I've been to 2 Gold Coast and Sentosa Island, Singapore

Thank you! They are very kind and generous words! Made my morning! It is hard work writing it as I go along but the children enjoy going back and reliving the adventures.

Hi I'm Lisa and I was born in 1975, hence the username of Lees75. If you see a Lees75, it could well be me, as I use it a lot.

I live in Adelaide, with my 2 kids.

My story - I went on an African safari in my early 20s, but haven't been overseas since. When my ex-husband and I split 5 years ago, I re-evaluated what I wanted from my life, and decided that travelling with the kids was really important to me. So we have been on holiday every year, including Tasmania, Sydney and Qld. Last year we did a "holiday at home" so we could save money for the USA this year. It has been so far away for so long, but is now starting to become a reality - I have to book my ADRs on Saturday!

Thank you to Bec Bennett for starting this thread - a really great way to tell your individual story!
