Hello from Norway! 👋🇳🇴 I can’t quite e Hello from Norway! 👋🇳🇴

I can’t quite explain how incredibly beautiful it is here. These pictures were taken just off the side of the road  when it was too windy to go on the hike we actually had wanted to go on. But clearly this was meant to be, because LOOK 😍

We’re only here for a week to film a super quick project, but we will definitely need to come back to explore more 🌄 Add Norway to your list if it wasn’t already there!

This is 7! 🥳 Liv’s birthday is September 1st This is 7! 🥳

Liv’s birthday is September 1st which always falls during the week of Burning Man 🔥

For as long as I can remember she has been asking us if we could be there on her big day, so this year we brought the kids to the world’s biggest playground for Liv’s 7th birthday, and what a celebration it was!

It was dusty then rainy, we roller skated and climbed all the things, went to the Barbie Day Spa for manicures, and even had a trampoline birthday party complete with ice cream sandwiches gifted from a new friend, balloons and pumpkin pie.

It was such a beautiful reminder of all the wonderful humans we share this planet with 🌎

All week Liv proudly introduced herself by her Playa name (“Toothless”) to everyone we met, and as she rode her bike through the city with balloons trailing behind her random people sang Happy Birthday to her 🎶

One of my favorite moments of the whole week (which I sadly don’t even have any photos or videos of!) was when Liv and I were invited to a spontaneous late night party on an art car, and we danced on the roof while we drove around the Playa 💃🏼 She made her way right up to the DJ and when everyone realized she was there they were SO excited to share the space with such a little person. They laughed and danced with her, and it made my mama heart so so happy. 

I can’t believe how big she has gotten over the last year 🥺 Any last remaining bits of her squishy baby face have completely disappeared, and have revealed the beautiful young woman she is turning into. 

She already has big plans for her upcoming birthdays, so we’ll see how many of those dreams can come true as well 😏

She is such a gem in this world, and we are so lucky to have her as our little Muffin ❤️ Happy 7th Birthday, Liv!

A slice of peace in Delhi 🕊️ It’s here tha A slice of peace in Delhi 🕊️

It’s here that during specific parts of the year (that we almost missed by just a few days!) thousands of birds take to the skies every morning at the exact moment the sun rises, creating this beautiful site 🌅

To the left of the little boat dock is a crematorium, and locals believe these birds are the reincarnated souls of their loved ones. The birds are celebrated, welcomed and fed, and in return people like us get to witness this spectacular, chaotic (yet calm) daily ritual. 

🇮🇳 This was Liv and Bodhi’s introduction to India on our very first (and very early) morning after a longgg flight from Japan, and I think it set the bar pretty high for our trip!

India, you are so beautiful 😍 Swipe to see Li India, you are so beautiful 😍 

Swipe to see Liv’s little head pat after Bodhi took nice pictures with her 😏 She is (usually) the best big sister to her little brother (when he isn’t driving her completely crazy, ha!).

Side note: Listen up parents and families! 📣 We LOVE (and highly recommend) finding local photographers when we travel so we have a chance to get all four of us in the frame together. Plus they bring you to all sorts of hidden gems that you wouldn’t have found yourself, like this stunning little nook at Amer Fort!

For our India trip we knew Jaipur had some incredibly photogenic architecture so we looked on Instagram for tags like #jaipurphotographer and found @travelwithcg, then kept our fingers crossed she was available during our trip 🤞The stars aligned and we were able to do a shoot with Charu, who captured some of our favorite travel photos from our whole trip to India. Thank you again, Charu!

“Off the beaten path” means different things t “Off the beaten path” means different things to different people, but staying with the Mentawai tribe on a tiny island off the coast of Sumatra was our greatest adventure yet. 

I have a hard time putting into words how genuine and welcoming the Mentawai community was to our little family. 

After taking three flights, a 5 hour ferry, a 2 hour pickup truck ride, a dug-out canoe for 2 hours, followed by a 2 hour hike through knee-deep mud and across countless rivers, we were welcomed with open arms into the most genuine and heartfelt community we have ever had the privilege to be part of. 

We slept on the floor together as one big family, ate together, gathered and created in the forest, and tried to grasp even the smallest bit of knowledge from these incredibly wise people who have lived off the land for centuries, passing along their traditions through each generation. 

I realized recently that even though our YouTube film from our experience with the Mentawai tribe has been watched by millions of people around the world, we have somehow never once shared a single photo or reel from our trip on IG 😬🫣 So here’s our first post of many!

Visiting the Andes always feels like coming home 🥰 

There’s something so magical about riding horses in the shadow of the towering Cotopaxi volcano, hiking the ridge along Quilotoa’s turquoise crater lake, and climbing the snow covered Chimborazo, the world’s highest mountain when measured from the center of the Earth 🌎 

Clearly we have to go back, if not to keep exploring then at least to work on getting on a horse a bit more elegantly 🤣

The real life Jungle Book 😍🐯 Can you believe The real life Jungle Book 😍🐯 Can you believe this is India?!

It felt SO good to be back on safari ❤️ We had no idea what to expect when heading to Bandhavgarh National Park (it seems like everyone usually visits Ranthambore due to its proximity to Jaipur?) but we ended up with 10 tiger sightings between only 4 drives 🤯

It was absolutely incredible and such a bucket list adventure.

Without a doubt the craziest waterfall we’ve eve Without a doubt the craziest waterfall we’ve ever seen, only topped by the adventure to get there 😅

After an hour and a half of descending and passing over slippery paths and makeshift bridges, scaling down smaller waterfalls into the valley below, followed by multiple river crossings (where we had to hold onto a rope to keep from being swept downstream, which the kids thought was absolutely hilarious 🫣), we arrived exhausted at this beyond incredible site.

On the way back up we passed a couple other hikers who saw our kids and couldn’t believe that they had completed this tough hike. When they heard Liv hiked the entire thing herself they were flabbergasted and told her “we want to be like you when we grow up!” which gave her the extra boost of stamina to get all the way back up to the top. 

Our kids are such little rockstars and we are always so proud of them and all they accomplish when they are determined to do hard things 💪

Just one more experience that solidified our love for the incredible country of Indonesia ❤️🇮🇩
