A non-exhaustive list of summer camps around the world
This blog post is a list of kids summer camps that I have bookmarked over the years, researched, tried and tested or highly recommended by friends. I want to spend as much time as possible with the children over the summer months, but I also know that camp experiences...
Wild adventure, sustainability and fund raising for 14-25 years old
When I was growing up, my mother sent me to all sorts of places from an early age (1st poney camp at 6 yo in Burgundy .. and a linguistic camp in rural England at 7 years old!). While some experiences were a bit tough, they were all very formative and I am grateful...
Bonding ideas with a 12 year old in NYC
Trips connect us to people and places. I find that taking a child on a one-on-one trip is a wonderful and most effective bonding experience. It provides intimacy and lasting memories for both parent and child. Marcelo and I went to NYC when he was 5. It was...
Imagine in your mind

North Devon, the detox way at Yeotown
Sometimes, we travel far in search of unspoilt lands and they are right there, on our doorstep. It's hard not be blown away by the natural beauty of North Devon, a region just 2 hours north of London Paddington station, perfect for a hiking / detox trip. I got to...
Art, Music & Laughter in Bruton, Somerset. England
I've written before about my BFF discovery week-ends. We go way back with my Parisian girlfriends and each year, one of us gets invited to a place none has visited before as a birthday treat [kids & partners stay home]. So far, we have been to Tangiers,...
Puglia without the crowds
What better than the excuse of a 40th birthday (not mine though!) to explore a new region. Or .. what better than a celebration with friends to enjoy a week-end away from the children? Or again .. what better than a few days in grey November to enjoy the Puglian sun?!...
Beiges, Blues, Yellows and Pinks. Marrakech
Disclosure: this blog post only contains the addresses of 1 driver, 1 restaurant, 1 shop and 3 places to sleep. I know, it's a bit light for a fascinating city like Marrakech, and I am not claiming that those addresses are the best of, but I really enjoyed them on my...
The hidden beauties of Sicily’s South-East: Noto, Modica, Ragusa..
We recently went on a just-the-two-of-us-little-getaway to celebrate our not-so-little-twenty-years-anniversary. Yep, even typing this big number, I can hardly believe it. For beauty, history and good food, the South-East of Italy is hard to beat. And it won't break...
Show & Tell with Marcelo on his first big summer camp: Canada
Last summer, our big boy Marcelo went to his first real summer camp. Ok, he had been before to a short tech camp in the UK countryside, and to a one-week farm stay in Normandie, France. But this was a proper all-outdoor, far-from-everyone summer camp that...

I wonder what Hemingway would say about Cuba today
Everyone's talking about Cuba these days, and I am thrown 20 years back to when I first visited this special island, and left it with mixed feelings about its future. I was 20 years old back then. During a summer internship in Caracas (that's a whole other blog...
The wife vs. the mother, Bhutan |1|
We're back from a trip in Bhutan, which I really want to document properly on BozAround. It will be mainly through photos as I took sooo many, and they will tell much more about this beautiful country than my own words. Bhutan is roughly the size of Switzerland,...
