NOE free field guide: Big trips, little travelers

33 countries · 5 continents · every trip self-guided from New England.

What's inside

Ten pages, no filler

The short version of everything we’ve learned crossing oceans with small people, only what’s actually worked with our own kids.

Where to stay

Why a kitchen and a washer change the whole trip, and the five things we filter for before we book a single night.

Getting there & around

From Boston to the front door: the overnight-flight trick that beats jet lag, and why Europe’s trains are a gift with kids.

What we pack

The short carry-on list that keeps making the cut: bags, packing cubes, power, and the backup that saves your photos.

Connected, covered & safe

The three unglamorous things we set up before every flight (an eSIM, a VPN, and travel insurance) that have each saved a trip.

Doing the city

Pre-book the two or three big things, then leave the rest gloriously empty, because the carousel always beats the monument.

Hard-won tips & longer stays

Day-use hotels, lounges, tipping, conversion shortcuts, plus how we’ve actually lived abroad for months: income, visas, and school on the road.

Pack the bags. We’ll keep the lights on
