If you have a dinosaur-obsessed kid, you need to add this riverside adventure to your Taipei itinerary immediately! 🦖🚲
For every sight we see “for us,” we make sure to account for one activity to do “for her,” and this was the ultimate kid win. The life-sized animatronics at Guandu Dinosaur Park are incredibly realistic, and getting to physically ride on the dinos had her in absolute heaven.
Getting there was half the fun: an easy, breezy ride down Taipei’s dedicated riverside bike path right to the entrance. And when everyone got hungry? The Guandu Wharf container market is literally right outside the gates for amazing food and drinks by the water. It was the perfect mix of kid-friendly thrills and a well-deserved parents’ break! 🍻🦕
Save this spot for your next family trip to Taiwan! 👇

We try to hit up adventure parks and local challenge courses right back home in Colorado, hoping to spark that same sense of adrenaline and bravery. But there is something entirely different about being out in a new place, surrounded by unfamiliar landscapes, towering foreign trees, and a whole wide world to discover, that completely shifts her mindset.
Watching her conquer new heights abroad, pushing past limits she didn't even know she had, is what makes every single stretch of the travel budget entirely worth it.

Sara Blakely , I hope you’re giving discounts on Spanx... because otherwise, I’m going to need a whole new wardrobe after this spot!

We set out on our latest food mission to Benitsuru, and let’s just say these towering, cloud-like soufflé pancakes are dangerous territory. Watching them flip and stack those golden cakes with thick bacon and rich hollandaise was pure art.

My daughter was obsessed with her own plate, which came with a scoop of ice cream—because let’s be honest, every great travel meal needs a sweet bonus. One bite and I was instantly questioning all my life choices, but in the absolute best way possible. I’m still dreaming about that hollandaise-drenched goodness, and looking at the wall of fame on our way out, we definitely weren’t the only ones who fell victim to the food coma.

Tired of bringing home mass-produced souvenirs from your travels? ✈️🇯🇵
When traveling through Japan, I made a rule: if I don't get to see it being made right in front of me, I’m not bringing it home! Finding truly local, handmade treasures can be tough, but while walking down a sleepy street, I stumbled upon the cutest hidden gem.
Not only did I get to watch local artisans handcraft exquisite bamboo chopsticks, woven bags, pins, and trinkets, but I also got to pick up authentic souvenirs knowing the exact story behind them.
Watch until the end to check out the exact shop location if you want to visit!

No amount of daily steps could come anywhere close to canceling out this hollandaise-drenched soufflé consumption.

Our favorite part about DisneySea and Tokyo Disneyland was that our vacation package came with UNLIMITED POPCORN!🍿✨

We made it our mission to try every single flavor across both parks, and boy oh boy were we impressed!

While we tasted everything from savory specialties to sweet treats, our absolute all-time favorite flavor hands down was the Honey Popcorn! 🍯✨

Have you ever tried the unique popcorn flavors at Tokyo Disney? Which one would be your top pick? 👇

How we raised a kid who willingly tries Octupus, oysters, and market street food around the world

When we travel, expanding our daughter’s palate is just as much a part of the adventure as sightseeing. It hasn’t happened by accident—we follow 4 key rules and one little “magic trick”:

1️⃣ No “yuck” or “gross” allowed: If it’s edible, it deserves respect—whether it’s street food, seafood, or bugs at a night market.
2️⃣ The “One-Bite” Rule: She only has to try one bite, and she never has to finish it if she doesn’t like it. We know it’s a privilege when incredible food might go unfinished, but removing the pressure to clean her plate gives her total freedom to explore.
3️⃣ Balance with comfort: We always mix in familiar, safe favorites so food adventures stay fun and never feel overwhelming.
4️⃣ Arrive hungry: Absolutely no snacks before a market walk! When she’s truly hungry, her curiosity takes over and she’s so much more willing to try unfamiliar textures and flavors.

🪄 The Magic Trick: “Magic Tastebuds”
Science shows human taste buds regenerate roughly every 10–14 days. When she makes a face at a new flavor, we tell her: “Maybe your tastebuds will change next time!” Nine times out of ten, her curiosity wins, she asks for a second or third bite to check if the “magic” happened already—and once the initial surprise wears off, she usually loves it.

Save this for your next family trip! ✈️ What’s the wildest thing your kid has tried while traveling?
