Gotta love that toddler speed 😅 But honestly, Gotta love that toddler speed 😅 But honestly, Martin is not a complainer. I was! Sometimes it takes ages to get anywhere. But after numerous trips, I learnt that joy lies in the journey, not in the destination. And therefore we only go on toddler paced hikes and let him freely explore the world around us. I just need to upgrade my strength training as I carry more and more rocks around. ⭐️ Follow @travelwiththesmile for adventure inspiration and family friendly outdoor tips! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #outdoorkids #familytravels #familyadventure #adventurefamily #getoutsideandplay #ohheymama #parentingwin #gentleparenting #respectfulparenting #naturalparenting #naturallyperfectkids #parenthood #parentingtips #lovekidsunconditionally #adventurefamily #adventurekids #outdoorfamilies #runwildmychild #staywildmychild #kidswhoexplore #tinybigadventure #albertaadventurekids #naturebaby #1000hoursoutside #adventureswithkids #adventureparenting

Trencin, Slovakia 🇸🇰 A city in the heart o Trencin, Slovakia 🇸🇰 A city in the heart of Europe you've never heard about where Michal and I grew up. When we were planning an autumn trip to rest and relax after a busy summer season renting our campervans, our first thought was Mexico or Caribbean in general. But then we learnt the trip would fall into the midst of the hurricane season... We've lived it once and it was ok, but traveling with our son would be very different. So we thought we can visit our families in Slovakia. And I'm so glad we did ❤ Martin got to know everyone all over again (we visited before when he was only 1 year old), and his experience and vocabulary levels exploded. Having a bilingual child is so fun! Martin made everyone laugh when he spoke in both languages, and every family member taught him great slang we totally forgot about 😆 Thanks for following along, we'll be back sharing content from snowy Canada ✌️
I love to return to my favourite places in Trencin I love to return to my favourite places in Trencin, Slovakia where I grew up. And it's always special to share these places with your loved ones. But sharing them with our little one and watching him do things that I once did as a kid at the exact same place is truly heartwarming. It makes me appreciate my hometown even more 💙 Do you visit your old stomping grounds?

All stages of growing up have their ups and downs. All stages of growing up have their ups and downs. And while carrying a sleeping baby around might seem more relaxing because there are seemingly no distractions to the peaceful walk, I enjoy much more actively playing with my son. We now get to do lots of fun things together and I couldn't be happier. I've heard that older kids often complain that parents are dragging them along on their adventures so I'm going to soak up this time to the fullest! Do your kids enjoy spending time with you outdoors? I remember loving it when I was a child. ⭐️ Follow @travelwiththesmile for adventure inspiration and family friendly outdoor tips! . . . . . . . . . . #kidswhoexplore #kidsoutside #yyckids #theoutdoorpassion #freezingamomentintime #treasuringlittlemoments #letthembewildandfree #letthembelittleforever #thingsiwanttoremember #candidkids #honestlymothering #adventurefamily #adventurekids #outdoorfamilies #staywildmychild #albertaadventurekids #yycbaby #canadianbabies #outdoorbaby #adventureswithkids #lovevery #loveverygift
