Blogs We Love: Life's Helmet - The McFarlane's Euro Bucket List!

We just love this amazing pictorial memoir of one family's adventure abroad! Featured on Life's Helmet, a fantastic blog site run by Mackenzie McFarlane, this collection of captioned photos highlights the adventures of a family living abroad! A year ago, the McFarlane family relocated to Ireland for a temporary work assignment with Intel. In their first year in Ireland they traveled to 11 different countries, stayed in 40+ hotels, and saw some of the world's most amazing places... all with their 3 kids in tow! They made it a goal to not just see the traditional tourist attractions but to venture off the beaten path and create truly unique travel experiences for their children. 

As they have traveled, they compiled what they affectionately refer to as "McFs Euro Bucket List" (which can also be seen on Instagram under the hashtag #TheMcFsEuroBucketList). While they have seen much more than just the items included, the list highlights some of their most memorable moments; and with the whole world at their feet, the list will (doubtless!) continue to grow.

So whether you're thinking of moving overseas, planning a European vacation, or just want to dream about what your own family could do on such a  life-changing journey, check out the McFarlane's remarkable snapshots of their family's memory-making in Germany, Austria, Ireland, England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, and Scotland (among others!)!
