Reading Time: 10 minutes Misty, mysterious, green rolling hills are a notable part of the gorgeous country of Scotland, but they are not all Scotland has to offer. This relatively small country boasts charming towns, unique outdoor experiences, and fantasy-inducing sights. *Disclaimer: This post may contain affiliate links. Opinions shared are my own, and […]
Reading Time: 8 minutes Embarrassing as it is to admit this, when we arrived in Scotland, I didn’t even know there was Harry Potter inspo there! We’ve enjoyed seeing the Lello Library in Porto, Portugal, famed for helping inspire Hogwarts, explored several HP spots in London, and traveled to Universal Studios to immerse ourselves […]

Welcome, Fellow Traveler! I'm Leslie, a mom of five crazy kiddos. Along with my husband, Chris, we've been full-time or part-time traveling the world as a family for over 4 years! We continue to invest in memories as we travel the world and love to empower other families to explore full-time travel or add more travel into their family life. Besides travel, we are foodies and love to explore through our tummies and can't keep away from Disney parks around the world. We currently reside in Portugal and are exploring expat life and learning a new language. Please explore our blog and reach out to us!
