  • Ep. 120 Travelling with Carry-On Only with Jocey Newman
    Jul 4 2023

    Travelling with kids doesn’t have to require packing the whole house. Jocey Newman and her spouse took off on a year-long adventure with their kid and only carry-on. Let’s learn how!

    Jocey Newman is a mom, adventure traveller, and the founder of First Peak, a line of sustainable adventure wear for babies and toddlers. All her clothes are made in the USA using eco-friendly fabrics that are designed to stand up to mess, moisture, and exploration. She’s currently living on the road with her husband and 2-year-old, testing out First Peak clothes every day.

    Reasons to Pack Carry-On Only:

    • No lost luggage
    • Less to haul
    • Makes travel faster
    • Teaches children value and purposeful consumption
    • Kids are really good at finding anything to play with
    • Allows you and your kids to work on letting go and saying bye to items

    What to Pack:

    • Camping packs as carry-on (using packing cubes)
    • A smaller backpack for day use
    • Stroller (Baby Zen YoYo Stroller)
    • Carseat, if you’re not borrowing
    • Clothes
    • Books
    • iPad

    What to Buy On Travel:

    • Snacks
    • Perishable food
    • Diapers
    • Toiletries

    What to Borrow:

    • Big items
    • Air BnB has a filter, so you can search for homes with cribs, etc.
    • Carseat, even from Facebook Marketplace (car seats are a tricky one, because different places have different regulations, and you don’t know how a car seat has been treated…this one may take some looking into)

    Tips for Travel:

    • Don’t overpack for the “what if’s” or plan for every possible scenario
    • Consider using transit, bikes, rentals
    • For liquids, pack some small ones, but then buy larger there as needed
    • Before arriving, look up park, pharmacy, and grocery store near you
    • Wash clothes in the sink as needed
    • When exhausted, get outside, have snacks, change the scenery, and give kids a chance to lead!

    First Peak [Sustainable Kids’ Clothing]:

    Inspiration for this business came from her son spilling milk on himself while hiking/travelling. She was inspired to create something sustainable, that’s quick to dry, uses safe fabrics, and lasts!

  • Ep. 119 Parenting Off the Beaten Path with Meghan J. Ward
    Jun 6 2023

    Have you ever wondered if becoming a parent will change your adventures? Have you ever wondering what travelling the world would look like with kids? Meghan J. Ward wondered too, and she made it happen. She tells us all about it in her books, and today on the podcast!

    Meghan J. Ward is a writer, editor, digital content specialist and all-around storyteller based in Banff, Canada (Treaty 7 territory), and mama of two. An avid outdoor adventurer with a voracious appetite to understand her surroundings, she has established herself as a mountain historian and an authoritative voice in the Rockies outdoor and travel scene. She has authored four Canadian Rockies photo/travel books, which she collaborated on with her husband, Paul Zizka, a celebrated landscape photographer/ She is also the author of a children’s book, The Wonders That I Find, and a travelogue/memoir, Lights to Guide Me Home.

    Parenting during travel amplifies parenting. And in response to the “they won’t remember this” comments, babies remember in their bodies, in their cells, even if they cannot access the stories.

    Book Recommendation: Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman
