Meet Melissa, Mum and founder of the travelling four.

I’m a master at chasing dreams, collecting memories and adventures, and celebrating the privilege of parenthood with my hubby and our two children. At the age of 40, I’ve also discovered I’m a space nerd (talk to me about NASA and space shuttles and I’ll be your friend forever!).

We are a local family who are passionate about exploring this incredible world we live in with our children. From our experiences of travelling as a family over the last 8 years, we’ve discovered how travel expands the hearts and minds of our kids.

We’ve also become masters at creating affordable travel plans for our family – the more affordable we can make a holiday, the quicker we can plan the next adventure!

It’s my passion to share our adventures (and misadventures) with others– inspiring families and showing them how they can have the same experiences with their children as we’ve had with ours.

Are you ready for adventure, laughter and collecting memories with those you love most? Look out for us from time to time in your local Gazette, where I will share with you our tips and stories on affordable local adventures, and travel within Australia and overseas.

You can also see more of the travelling fours fun, misadventures and travel plans over at our website www.thetravellingfour.com.

Happy adventuring!
