We flew into Rome with two bohoBabies, Caymus (6 years old) and Camilla (4 1/2 months old)
Don't be scared to take those bohoBabies with you! Just message me and I'll give you some advice and tips for traveling with little ones!
I definitely don't know all the hidden gems of Rome, Florence, Venice and Paris, but we loved all the places we visited and I'm so excited to share them with all of you! I didn't include the hours of operations nor links, but tried to list as many addresses as I could. I would definitely recommend calling in advance for hours and reservations.
{FYI… bohok.day is a buyer at Abejas Boutique and was sent to Paris for market and we just decided to make a trip of it!}
Accommodations: we used airbnb and LOVED it
Before we left for our trip, I tried to teach Caymus something about each place we were going. That way he would understand it more once he saw it. he swears there are only 134 steps at the Spanish Steps and not the 135 he learned about.
