From Solo Adventures to Family Journeys

Hello!
I’m a Japanese mom living in Canada, raising three wonderful kids — two boys in high school and middle school, and a daughter in elementary school.

I’ve always loved traveling. In my single days, most of the money I earned went straight into plane tickets and new adventures. I used to choose my destinations purely based on curiosity — exploring Asia, North America, and Europe at my own pace.

After becoming a mother, our travels naturally shifted toward family-friendly resorts where my children could feel safe and have fun. Whenever we return to Japan, we also enjoy exploring different regions and discovering new charms within my home country.

These days, AI can instantly provide all the information you need for a trip — from packing lists to itineraries. But for me, one of the true joys of traveling lies in the journey before the journey: researching destinations, crafting itineraries, and preparing for a comfortable and meaningful stay. I genuinely love that sense of excitement that builds up before a trip.

Through this blog, I hope to share that same excitement and happiness with you — along with stories from my own travels and our family adventures. I also hope to offer inspiration and helpful tips to make your next trip more enjoyable, memorable, and special.
