To all the parents who burst out laughing at the headline, I hear you. As someone who has been to twenty-eight countries and twenty-five of them with my kids who are both under the age of six, I must say I laughed too. How does one even think of couple-time when holidaying with the kids?
Well, today is your lucky day for I have not one but five ways for you to sneak in some couple-time, even as you holiday with your children. But first, a few words of caution, remember that you are first and foremost holidaying as a family. While one always hopes for couple time, it is important to remember that things will not be the same as they were when you travelled together before children. Remember the clichéd adage that you are only as happy as your least happy child? That rings true while travelling as a family. So do remember that the relentless pursuit of couple time at the expense of your kids' moods, might not work out well for anyone.
