Where is home? 🏠

Where is home?  I looked up many definitions of home.  Home means "a place one lives permanently".  But what if you never have a permanent home or location would the definition be different?  As I child I moved constantly with different schools, different friends, different neighbors.  I learned early in life never to form an attachment to anyone or anything.  I consider myself a gypsy which defined as a nomadic or free-spirited person.  But when I find a location that I like I usually stay longer because it feels like what a "home" supposed to feel like.  Like knowing your neighbors, attending neighborhood parties, watching everyone babies grow and knowing if someone doesn't see you for a day or two they knock on your door and check up on you.  Is this home?  I'll let you know when I find one.

Traveling with kids 👧🏽👦🏽👧🏽👶🏽🛄

Waiting for flight 🛫 Traveling with kids what can I say it will be a challenge.  I’m divorced from my older kids father and have residential and physical custody but luckily my ex-husband is from Senegal the country we will be moving too.  We mutually agreed that it would be in the best interest of the kids to experience his home country.  He was a little worried about the kids adjusting but warmed up to the idea and agreed to the move. In order to move, I would suggest you get a certified letter from the father/mother agreeing to move the child (ren) out of the country.  Bring this letter with you and keep with your passport and visa information.  Here is more information about state requirements:   Requirements for traveling with kids . Now that my kids are older they are into iPods, nooks, etc.  I would suggest getting one of these types of devices for flights longer than 5 hours because they will drive you crazy on the plane.  ...

I overstayed my tourist visa, SOS!!!!

Remember when we were supposed to go to Germany in July 2016 well we were stopped at border control in Marrakech because I overstayed my tourist visa by 20 days.  In Morocco, if you overstay your visa you CANNOT leave till you fix your immigration status.  Well, I'm finally fixing my visa because we leave next month for Senegal and I already booked the tickets.  I have outlined below step by step on how to fix your tourist visa in Morocco. Here is step by step what you need to do to fix your tourist visa which is generally 90 days. Day 1 :  Go to Prefecture de Police de Marrakech  to schedule an appointment for court.  Take your passport with 1 copy of your passport.  The police clerk will give you a time and day to return to give your official statement on why you overstayed your visa.  *Phones are not allowed inside make sure you bring ID to leave with your phone at the front desk and yes it is chaotic & the front desk will give you a b...
