Travelling with the the Little Monkey has been a fairly easy journey so far thanks to my favourite items and tricks when travelling with a baby. She has been on 8 flights to date, visiting London, Bahrain (stop overs), Mumbai, Jaipur, Delhi and Pairs. Including various road trips to Agra to see the gorgeous Taj Mahal and all around Mumbai with its intense traffic jams.
The month long travels have been a smooth journey for us (for the most part), mainly because we had low expectations (hah!), took things in stride without getting stressed out and , oh yes, whilst in India we had an entire village (ok a team of 3 – grandmother/grandaunt/great grand mother combo) to take care of the Little Monkey! That sure helped!
This post is dedicated to her travels and the wonderful sites she’s seen and people she’s met. She will most definitely want to re-visit most of these places when she’s older but our parents instilled the love for travel in us when we were very young and we thought it fitting that we start the same journey with our little one. We hope to make a couple trips each year, though not all of them will be this adventurous (mainly because of budget constraints!).
