Hi!

I'm Alison, a homeschooling mom, lifestyle blogger, yoga instructor, and Long Beach native sharing our family's adventures in Southern California.

This blog has grown right alongside me over the years. What started as a place to share my adventures in fitness, food, and travel has evolved into a space where I document our family's everyday moments from homeschooling and motherhood to family-friendly adventures, local Southern California guides, travel inspiration, and the little things that make this season of life so special.

Whether you're looking for homeschool encouragement, pregnancy and motherhood tips, the best parks and family activities, or ideas for your next getaway, I hope you find something here that inspires you and makes life just a little easier.

Thanks so much for stopping by, I'm so happy you're here!

Feel free to say hello or shoot me a note any time — I love connecting with fellow moms, homeschoolers, and adventure seekers :)

Travel Guide: St Thomas Part Three

St Thomas is a small, beautiful island, located in the Caribbean not far from Puerto Rico. Although it has been a U.S. territory since we purchased it in 1917, the island still has a very international feel to it (and it's officially the farthest place I've now traveled to)!

THINGS TO DO IN ST THOMAS, USVI

  • Drive on the left side of the road

  • Buy (and take shots of) Naked Turtle Rum -- don't waste its great taste by drowning it in mixed drinks!

  • Take the tram up to Paradise Point in Charlotte Amalie (and order a Bushwacker!)

  • Charter a speedboat and do some island hopping - St John, St Croix, Virgin Gorda and other islands are all nearby

  • Visit the Baths on Virgin Gorda, BVI (don't forget your passport as you’re technically leaving the US!)

  • Get some BBQ Chicken from a local market

  • Eat fresh fish - my recommendation, the Mahi

  • Enjoy the warm and beautiful water! Snorkel, kayak, SUP and jet ski - we did this all in Magen's Bay

  • Go out to Duffy's Love Shack in Red Hook, order a Painkiller and dance the night away
