I planned on writing this from Denmark but only started in Hamburg before flying back to Israel via Holland. We are now back in Holland after being in Israel. Yes, it’s been quite the few weeks. I’ll continue … So Denmark and all that was during those wonderful 10 days. The drive to Denmark was … More Away We Go

So here I am writing from a hotel room in Amsterdam. This was never part of our plan but if you are to live wildly and preciously plans must be kept to a minimum and life must get in the way. Last night I landed here in Amsterdam with the girls but without Guy. Guy … More Elvis has left the building

Eulogy for Guy’s father written by Guy.  Since your heart attack four years ago in Australia, I have thought about your eulogy every so often. Since then, your quality of life was not the one you had imagined. You could not eat what you wanted and you couldn’t travel like you envisaged. Instead, there were many … More Eulogy for Aaron

So here I am on the plane back to Israel. It’s August 2 and we first left Israel just shy of four weeks ago. Over the last few days we have been receiving calls and messages from Guy’s family that his dad Aaron is very unwell. What started as needing oxygen at home has now … More Thoughts from a plane

I am writing this as the girls sleep. We are parked outside the largest limestone mine in the world – Monsted – and the girls are having a much needed nap. Unlike our usual night-time routine, Noa and Lina have been staying up until around 10pm every night and sleeping in till about 8am. It’s what we had … More Quentin Tarantino was here.

Now to the girl who has no name… We are slowly confirming the name of the van (similar to Lina- took two weeks!) We have had lots of input from friends on Facebook (has been very entertaining – thank you people) but nothing has as yet stuck. Except for Danke van (our friend Leonie’s favourite and … More Danke Van

Note: This post has been written far too late and I may be including a little too much information! You might want a glass of red and a box of chocolate to read this longer post. I welcome your feedback for future posts.  I love Holland. Always have. Even as a child I remember going to … More I love you Holland

Whoa! That’s how I feel a bit. We are here in Europe and this means we are here in Europe. All that planning, dreaming, calculating, thinking, exploring, investigating, pontificating, considering – and we are here. And it’s real. It’s rather incredible. We arrived in Hamburg Thursday night or actually it may have been Friday morning as … More Last night in a real bed – Hamburg

I have been writing this post over the last three weeks of being in Israel. It doesn’t have a lot to do with traveling with kids and a camper van but I feel the need to include it in my observations of travel in Israel. I will write a post about all that but if you’re interested … More Israel ramblings
