How we travel
Far, and to real places
We are a family of three from Slovenia. We fly long and we pick cities, islands and national parks over holiday clubs. Our son was 9 in Japan. The trips are not always easy, and that is exactly what we write about.
Who we areWhy you can trust what you read here
- Every answer says when we were there and how old our son was.
- All photos are ours.
- We do not review or rate hotels, and nobody pays us to like a place.
- Partner links are marked. They never change what we recommend.

Questions parents ask
Do the games need Wi-Fi or an app?
No. Every game is a PDF made for the phone screen. You open it once, it works offline, on the plane, in the car and abroad without roaming.
Do I need a printer?
No. You play by tapping on the phone. Each game also has a print page at the end if your kids prefer paper.
Which ages are the games for?
The bingos have a picture card for ages 3 to 6 and a word card for 7 and up. Kids Take Over is for 7 to 12. The couples games are for grown-ups.
Will the ticks be saved?
Yes, if you open the PDF in Files on iPhone, in Chrome or Drive on Android, or in Adobe Reader. Previews inside Gmail or WhatsApp do not save ticks.
How do I get the game after I pay?
You get a download link by e-mail right away. Save the PDF to your phone before you leave home.
Who writes the travel answers?
Our family. Every answer is from a trip we took, with the month we were there and our son's age at the time. We do not review or rate hotels.
