So who is Hot Mama? Simply put, I’m an everyday wife and mother juggling our family’s crazy life while trying to squeeze in as much excitement as possible. I also happen to be a writer and bartender with a major passion for travel. Although I have taken many great trips with my husband, having kids did not slow us down. Where mama goes, the babies go. That being said, I rarely have a free a weekend. Not because I’m super cool and rolling in the dough, but because I understand what travel can do for a family’s bond. Whether it’s a week-long getaway or a simple day trip, having a new shared experience or adventure replenishes the family conversation and as I like to say, “A family that travels together stays together.”

The concept of travel can seem daunting, especially those with small children, but it doesn’t have to be a stressful task. I use the term travel to encompass locations near and far. Now that I am a mama, I understand the necessity to keep trips budget friendly. It really isn’t as hard as it looks. I will share all my tips on how to keep the quality of your vacations high, but your expenses low. My theory: the more money you can save on trips, means the more trips you and your family can take. I will also share my stories and give advice on how to keep it cool when traveling with your little ones. When it comes to having a great family vacation, it’s not just about the location; it’s about the experience and making every trip memorable from start to finish.
