Alaska

"Why would we go to Alaska?"- this is what I asked my husband a year ago when he came up with the idea to travel to thisvery cold state.

Be awake, a bear is coming

You will think I am kidding. NO. If you are going to hike or camp in the Sierra Nevada Mountains (in the US) you can meet bears.

Washington DC.

We spent an amazing 5 days in the capital of the United States in April, 2014. I was always curious how is this big city, after we visited San Francisco, New York and Chicago, was time to go there.

What would you like to be?

Every child has a dream job. Some kids are changing regularly some just stay by one idea.

Sledding at Lake Tahoe

I love skiing - I have to tell this all the time- but I haven't yet started teaching my little one (2.5 years old) how to. Instead of skiing I wanted to go sledding and playing in the snow with her this year.

Skiing in Heavenly, Lake Tahoe (California)

I used to be a ski instructor so it was obvious to go skiing in Winter. My favorite places in Europe were in the French Alps and now in California it's Heavenly at Lake Tahoe.

Sacramento (California)

California State Capitol

Sacramento is the capital city of California. When I heard this fact for the first time - before we moved to California - I was really surprised. Why isn't it San Francisco? Sacramento is just the sixth-largest city in California. 

Nutcracker Behind The Scenes

Who doesn't love The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky?

Photo Friday: Animals In The Forest (California)

I love nature. I'm happy to be living in California because it's outdoor scenery is unmatched. I have never met so many deer and squirrels in a forest before. Not to mention the bears, which I haven't even seen before in the wild. We were so lucky to be able to take some pictures of these animals. Please, take a look!

Bear in Sequoia National Park

Photo Friday: The beautiful trees

We love hiking because it is so nice to be outside with our daughters. We are just walking, watching the gorgeous trees and trying to teach the kids how to be quiet and not to scare the animals away. I always think about my Hungarian aunt who loves hiking, how happy she would be to hiking with us here in California and watching the beautiful giant redwood trees.

What Does The Fox Say?

Parents of small kids usually teach them what sounds animals make.

Photo Friday: It is all about skiing

Winter is supposed to be the rainy season in California. Unfortunately this year it is not. Everybody has a reason why she is waiting for the rain. My main reason is to go skiing. :) My favorite place in California so far is Lake Tahoe (Heavenly). I would like to show you some pictures and you will see why.

Riding A Motorcycle In Bali

When we arrived at this small Indonesian island we were pretty excited but also exhausted. I have  never been to Asia before, especially not with kids. :)

Budapest at Christmas (Hungary)

Christmas is my favorite holiday. It means spending time with family and friends. I feel very lucky because so far I could spend every Christmas with my family at home in Budapest. I would like to share some ideas what you can do around this time in Budapest, Hungary.

Merry Christmas

Before I go home to Budapest (Hungary) to spend the holidays with my family and friends I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year with lots of travel!

Oakland Zoo

The Oakland Zoo is our favorite zoo so far. Why? Because it has the perfect size for two young kids and it is not far from our home.

How to feed the kid(s)

What a silly question, right? When we are at home with all comforts it is very easy to figure it out what and how to cook for our children. But when we are traveling it is not so easy, right?

Clamming

My husband loves fishing. It brings him back to his childhood with lots of good memories. 

Halloween In The US

Halloween was new for me when I moved to the US. I am from Hungary where we don't celebrate Halloween at all.
