Our Post-Divorce Family Travel Timeline
This is our evolving timeline of post-divorce family travel — from solo adventures with the kids to collaborative efforts with my ex. It’s a living record of how we’ve navigated co-parenting, travel logistics, and the unpredictable magic of just hitting the road. Some trips were grand, others messy, but each helped shape this new chapter in our story.
