Spring break, anyone got exciting plans? Last year we explored the south of France planning everything at the last minute but this year as our holidays fall over Easter some planning was needed. We booked flights to Lisbon a few months ago but only got around to booking accommodation booked in Porto, Cascais and Lisbon the past few weeks. So now that’s all sorted it’s time to sort out where to eat, any tours and what we want to see! If you’ve got any tips I would be forever grateful!. #theworld_around_you #swissfamilytravel #southoffrance #europewithkids #springbreak #havekidswilltravel #doorsofeurope #childhoodunplugged

Finally a cafe in Zug serving quiche and salad! The perfect lunch in my opinion. @kaffee_frech is a relative newcomer to the Zug cafe scene and I’ve heard the coffees are good too - although I will stick to lemon and ginger tea. #inlovewithzug #zug

Basel home to the Herbstmesse but also fabulous Fasnacht (aka Swiss carnival) celebrations that started off at 4am, yes you ready that right, 4am this morning. This is one tradition I’ve never gotten up for, even when I lived near Basel when I first moved to Switzerland. So for a local perspective head to @amandajoy_photography @fambamadventuregram @playbasel @suzylouphotography @kneadgoodfood #basel #lovebasel #fasnachtbasel #visitswitzerland #swisstradition #carnival #baselswitzerland #baselswizz

It’s the little traditions that make a community, and I just love that Switzerland is full of them. Tonight I left the dinner and bedtime to hubby and headed in to Zug for Chrööpfelimee where music filled the old town. Such a sweet tradition of groups of singers serenading newly engaged/married couples in exchange for wine and chrööpfeli a baked sweet treat filled with a dried pear paste. #inlovewithzug #zug #swisstradition #chrööpfelimee #inlovewithswitzerland #zugersee #kantonzug #stadtzug #visitswitzerland

Running into the weekend feeling quite productive and looking forward to some downtime. Despite the kids having 2 days off for Fasnacht I’ve been able to squeeze in a couple of meetings (exciting possibilities on the horizon!), i submitted my latest article for @kinderregion.ch (watch this space) and still managed 10,000 steps each day. Ok our apartment may look like a bombs gone off and I haven’t put away any laundry all week but I’m still feeling pretty good! How was your week? #inlovewithzug #kinderregion # #swissphotographer

Does anyone else return from ski week and stop skiing 🙈? We had big plans, but the weather hasn’t had us in any sort of skiing mood. Maybe the weather change coming will get us back out there? #inlovewithswitzerland #inlovewithswitzerland #scuol #theworld_around_you #graubuenden #swisswinter #switzerlandwithkids #unterengadin #winterwonderland

We were a couple of weeks too early for the Engadin tradition of Chalandamarz. The tradition marking the end of winter has kids dressed in blue shirts and red neck ties and hats ringing bells and singing songs. When we visited Guarda Little Z pretended to be Schallen Ursli,the most famous book about the tradition. Check out the hashtag #chalandamarz to see some photos from the celebrations yesterday. #engadin #guarda #engadinized #swisstradition #swissfestival #switzerlandwithkids
