A Grand Tour of Yorkshire

31st Jan 2020Leave a comment

Oh, how we loved Yorkshire! Inspired by James Herriot's tales of the windswept Yorkshire Dales, we had high hopes for our 5-day tour of York County. My one regret is our failure to bring along Herriot's audiobooks for the car! We'll have to fix that next time... We took this trip in August 2019, when … Continue reading A Grand Tour of Yorkshire

The Horniman Museum and Gardens

2nd Jan 20192nd Jan 2019Leave a comment

It's been a while since I posted a London adventure! We had been looking forward to checking out the Horniman Museum for some time, and it made for a perfect family day with its eclectic collection and stunning grounds. We can't wait to go back in summer, when we can spend half the day outside! … Continue reading The Horniman Museum and Gardens

Seven Sisters Cliffs

12th Nov 201812th Nov 20181 Comment

With all of our focus on exploring, we sometimes forget how much beauty there is right in England. A few weeks ago, we took an impromptu day trip to Seven Sisters National Park, which is an easy drive from London. We parked at South Hill Barn car park (free) and found lovely countryside views before … Continue reading Seven Sisters Cliffs

Mad Hatter’s Afternoon Tea

24th Sep 201826th Sep 20181 Comment

When I have a visitor, there are a few things I make sure to plan. The sightseeing depends on their interests (museums or parks? Crown Jewels or shopping?), but certain food experiences are essential. Within the categories that I consider required eating -- pub grub, afternoon tea and a curry -- there is still a … Continue reading Mad Hatter’s Afternoon Tea

Regent’s Park

18th Sep 201826th Sep 2018Leave a comment

Regent's Park is one of the Royal Parks, and is a must-see in London. As you wander through the beautifully landscaped gardens and relax on vast, perfectly manicured lawns, you may forget you're in the middle of the city. If you are in town while the Queen Mary Rose Garden is in bloom, it will … Continue reading Regent’s Park

Old Compton Brasserie

18th Sep 201826th Sep 2018Leave a comment

The Old Compton Brasserie is a new restaurant in Soho, which I visited with 3 friends during their soft launch. It has a seriously cool vibe, interesting cocktails, and delicious food. High chairs are available, and the Ladies room has a changing surface. Maybe it's supposed to be a vanity counter, but it definitely functions … Continue reading Old Compton Brasserie

About Passports & Snacks

I hope this blog serves as a resource for people who love travel, and for parents who want to travel with their children. I look forward to building a community dedicated to exploring, eating, and sharing new experiences.

I kept hearing my friends say that they missed travelling, but couldn’t handle it with tiny kids. Kids may be more demanding than the average carry-on luggage, but young kids are so portable and adaptable! I finally decided to share the tips, tricks and itineraries that have worked for our family. Perhaps with the planning already done, other young families will take the leap and explore the world! It is free or significantly discounted to bring them along in planes, trains, museums and most attractions. Plus, it’s incredibly refreshing to see the world through their eyes, with all the wonder and humour they find.
