Hi I’m Susanna, aka A Modern Mother and co-founder of the BritMums community. I started blogging in 2008 and still enjoy writing about and documenting our family journeys. Come visit me over at my blog to find out more!
Marrakech was one of the most fascinating places we have visited as a family. I love visiting the Jardin Majorelle, where the buildings were stunning blue!
The Hidden Gems I’ve Found
The whole experience was educational - and yummy too!
When we visited Dubai we had a culture meal at the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding. The non-profit group aims to promote awareness of the local culture, customs and religion. For a modest cost you can enjoy a traditional meal in a wind tower. The whole experience was educational - and yummy too!
My Favourite Destinations
St Lucia
Lovely St Lucia with her miles of sandy beaches, bananas and, of course, the iconic Pitons. It reminds me a bit of Hawaii - lush and green - but with a strong Caribbean culture. It’s the only Caribbean island to be named for a woman and one of my favourites.
California
I grew up in California and return there each year to visit family and tour around. There are so many places to visit, from skiing in the mountains to surfing in the Pacific Ocean (yes, you can do this on the same day!)
Marrakech
From London, you can be in Marrakech in North Africa in just three hours. In my experience, it’s hands down the most culturally different and exotic place close to the UK. Nicknamed “the Red City” because of the natural red ochre pigment of the buildings, Marrakech is beautiful and intriguing all at the same time. A big part of visiting Marrakech is experiencing it by sight, taste and feel! The scents of the Middle East and Africa are all here – spice and incense blend with the exhaust of the ever-present mopeds and other smells! It’s quite an experience.
Andreas’s passion for travel was instilled in him from a very young age, when his parents gave the gene of restlessness to him.
