Nomadmum

Your go-to source for all things Family Travel and life as a Digital Nomad Family!

Hi, I'm Lulu, a German journalist, mum of two, wife, and Digital Nomad since 2019.

I love sharing tips and insights on making family travel easier—from navigating long flights and finding kid-friendly activities to balancing work and homeschooling on the road.
On my blog, I cover all aspects of being a Digital Nomad Family and the unique joys and challenges of full-time travel with kids. I focus a lot on Thailand, especially places like Koh Phangan, Samui, and Phuket, because we have made these islands our home base.

My mission is to help families explore the world with their kids!
