We just got back from a 10-day family trip to the South of France — and wow, was there a lot to unpack (literally and figuratively). In this solo episode, I’m sharing everything about what it was really like to travel internationally with a baby, a toddler, and six adults. I’m talking packing lists, travel day logistics, sleep schedules, toddler meltdowns, jet lag disasters (and wins), how Milo learned to swim, and what made this feel like the rarest kind of trip: an actual vacation as parents of young kids.

Plus, I’m getting real about what I wish I brought, what I absolutely didn’t need, how we handled picky eating abroad, and why traveling with extended family was a total game-changer. If you're planning a big trip with little ones or just want a behind-the-scenes look at family travel chaos, this one's for you!
