About Us

We are Idy + Simon. 

We love to travel.

Travel is the thing that makes both of us feel most alive. The learning of new cultures, cuisines, and perspectives motivates us to venture as much as possible.  Before our girls were born, we had already lived on three continents and traveled to over 20 countries. 

But what happens after our girls are born? We bring them along! 

Both of our girls had their first flight before they were three months old and have since taken over 80 flights with us.

We have created “Our Little Step” to share our experience of family travel with itineraries designed with children in mind.  We felt that sharing our insights, mistakes, and perspectives may make traveling a little easier for other families.  We truly believe that traveling is one of the best forms of education for our children.

Everything in this blog is curated by us.  We do extensive research before each trip, always considering our girls’ needs.  We are not writing a general travel blog that caters to everyone – it’s just our family – but that also means you can fully trust our recommendations in our blogs based on our true experience.   We also take our own photographs (and we love doing that too!).  

Note that we are not advising anyone to quit their jobs and travel the world.  We do not sell courses about it either.  We have full-time jobs, and our kids attend regular schools.  Traveling does not have to mean going to an exotic country or backpacking around Europe.  A weekend getaway to a resort, a camping road trip, or a spontaneous staycation are also perfect forms of travel.

Hopefully “our little step” can inspire you and in crafting your own remarkable adventures that will stay with your family for a lifetime.
