Having kids changes everything in life, and that includes travel. I thought I was an expert on navigating airlines and hotels before we had kids, and then suddenly I felt like a complete newbie. The concept of just rolling up to the airport 45 minutes before departure with a carry-on and relaxing (or typing furiously) for most of the flight is no longer a thing.
In this post, I’d like to talk a bit about how my perspective on hotels has changed over the years, especially as our older son, Miles, is a few months short of being four years old, which is a pretty great (but exhausting) age.
When our oldest son was still under two years old, I can’t say that I really put that much thought into how accommodating hotels were of kids. You want a hotel that has the basics and doesn’t make you feel out of place, but our son was still most interested in trying to play with outlets and light switches, rather than any things intended for kids.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
