The Family Behind Sunshine to Somewhere…

Hi! I’m Amanda, a mom of 2, and this is my husband, Steve, and our 2 elementary school age kids living in Orlando, Florida.

Before kids, we shared a love of travel and wanted to continue sharing that with our kids. But traveling with kids is tough! When our son was born we set a goal to take a trip, even if small, with him while I was on my maternity leave and we did it! When he was 4 months old we went to Washington DC for a 3-night getaway and it was hard, fun, stressful, new, exciting and MEMORABLE! Since then, we've never looked back.

We are a regular family, with two working parents, kids in school with sports and after-school activities. And we LOVE to travel and stay busy! From local activities and events, to travel near and far, we love to be on the go. Living in Florida has blessed us with easy access to attractions, beaches and more.

On this website you’ll find tips for traveling with kids, family vacation destinations with itineraries, family-friendly hotel reviews, suggestions for Orlando and Florida day or weekend activities and more!

We work hard to curate itineraries that our kids love, and we want to share them with you! We love to include family-friendly restaurants, shops, and activities, because we know those are the hidden gems parents are craving to find and include as they plan for their families.
