Welcome to the Wildish Blog on the Internet!
(You know you read that in the prospector's voice)
Think traveling with kids is too difficult? A hassle? Not worth the money because they won’t remember it?
I am a mother of three children, and I speak from experience when I tell you it is NONE of those things.
It’s amazing! Relatively easy!
Completely worth the money because traveling will become part of who they are, help shape them into the human they are meant to be and connect you as a family in a meaningful way.
Sure, it’s not all cupcakes and rainbows, to quote one of my favorite animated movies. But its not as difficult or scary as you think.
I started this blog to share what I have learned in a decade’s worth of family travels. All my tips and tricks to traveling with young kids, honest reviews of our adventures, and glimpses into the destinations and accommodations we’ve experienced.
​
No surprise, but Disney is our favorite and we travel with them often. (Can you guess my favorite ride?)
Hopefully it will inspire you to go on an amazing adventure of your own. And with confidence.
Here are some blogs to get you started:
Who We Are
We are the Wildish family, a group of 5 individuals who love exploring the world, swimming in the ocean, and a good baseball game.
We are Disney fanatics! A lot of our adventures lead us there and we’ve gotten how to navigate a busy park with babies, toddlers, and a double stroller down to a science.
​
Here you will find lots of tips, tricks, and information aimed at inspiring you to take an unforgettable vacation with your kids, no matter their age.
Thanks for joining us on our Wild--ish adventures!
I’m Anna — wife, mother, and travel planner extraordinaire.
I grew up in Hawaii, started my family in Oregon, and currently live in Pearland, Texas. But I have traveled to all corners of the country. I like to pack as few things as possible in my suitcase, a good book, and the Oregon Ducks.
When I’m not planning our next adventure, you’ll find me reading the latest Disney parks news, roaming the aisles of Target, and cheering on my kids at their various sporting events and dance classes.
I am also a Personal Vacation Advisor with Magical Vacation Planner, an authorized Disney vacation planner agency. I make it easy for families to go on magical vacations to destinations worldwide.
My services are complimentary!
