Why Kids shouldn’t stop you globetrotting: our guest post for excellent “The Tokyo Chapter”
Hello moms and dads. Vacations season is at its peak and we would like to stress the very essence of this blog: travelling with babies is possible and funny. We had the priviledge of being guest writers of the awesome The Tokyo Chapter site, funded and run by Johanna MacGregor, Australian expat in Japan with her lovely family. We took advantage of this invitation to explain the mission of Globetrotting with my baby: empower parents to travel with babies and kids. We are extremely proud for the visibility that this collaboration can bring to our site. So, check out our post on TTC and don’t forget to read her suggestion…
Six reasons why Japan is the ideal place to go before your baby becomes a toddler
Goodmorning moms and dads! I hope you’ve been enjoying our stories about feeding baby Princess in Japan. Because today, it is Japan again. I guess that the fact that I’m craving for having sushi at Tsukiji fish market (which is now only for food, the tuna auctions moved to Toyosu market) is making me developing a Japan obsession. No, don’t worry, I’m not turning the whole thing into the umpteenth cooking blog: we have a good bunch of them already. As my mind goes back to our extraordinary trip (because it is an extraordinary Country), I’m more and more convinced that it was just perfect to be there before Princess…
Eat like a local, wean like a local: all that it takes to feed your baby on the road
My dear parents, welcome to our column dedicated to weaning management while traveling. This topic deserves a category with in-depth analysis, because it is a very important step in our babies’ life. It’s one of the greatest changes a baby experiences in his/her first year. For mothers, it means studying, organizing, experimenting. This is why, parents can be scared by the idea of leaving for far-away vacations as their babies are undergoing the first months of solid food. For sure, it is more challenging than the milk-only period, where traveling is extremely easy : if you breastfeed, food is always there, if you are on formula, you just need to…
The three worst places to be with a stroller : the Golden medal
Moms and dads, our competition is coming to an end: the winner of our “no-stroller places inquiry” is about to be revealed (I’m feeling as if I was presenting the Oscar night guys!!). If you’ve been recently reading our posts about the bronze medal awarded place (the subway in the main world capitals) and our San Francisco adventures , you might wonder if there still exists something worst. Well, it does. It exists a place where you have no alternative : if you have your stroller, you are gonna live a nightmare, for simply being there. Not that you can skip some attractions, or change the mean of transportation (as…
The five most important actions to take before you travel with children
You have been home with your baby for a couple of months. You are beginning to figure out the whole breastfeeding thing (it’s supposed to be something very natural, but believe me, it’s not, when you are just out of the hospital with double-sized boobs and a crying baby). You are trying to organize a lunch with your favorite friend at your favorite sushi and wonder if you will be able to warm your baby’s bottle. You are sleepy. You desperatly need to wax, but you cannot figure out when to do it. You desperately need a hairdresser, but you cannot think of doing anything else but sleep when your…
