This month’s round-up is certainly a global one. Usually when I put a call out for travel posts, the balance falls in favour of trips within the UK. This time I have been reading about your jaunts from Venice to Vancouver and New Orleans to Namibia. I think you will find some inspiration here for future holidays. Step off the Christmas conveyor belt for just a moment and indulge in a spot of armchair travelling.

Last week I joined in a Twitter chat all about family travel and it was a great way to share information and link up with other family travel bloggers. Why not follow the hashtag #familytravelhour between 8pm and 9pm every Tuesday evening. Gretta has more information about it here: #familytravelhour Twitter chat
I’m always on the look out for travel posts for my round-ups so please get in touch (via Twitter @mumsgoneto or my blog contact page) especially if you’ve not been featured before.
If you have some family days out you would like to share, there is a new round-up for this, run by Kara @chelseamamma, so do let her know if you have something that would fit the bill.
Next month’s round-up will be focusing on the Caribbean. I already have some posts I would like to share but let me know if you have been there recently and you think I might not be aware of your trip.
About Trish Burgess
Trish Burgess started her blog ‘Mum’s Gone To…’ with a series of posts called ‘Mum's Gone To Iceland' where she was extremely ill on a whale-watching trip and thought she would die snow-mobiling on a glacier. Thankfully she survived and continued with less scary family trips: ‘Mum’s Gone To…Canada, Cyprus, Barcelona, Berlin etc. Originally from Newcastle upon Tyne she now lives in South Lincolnshire and travels with her husband and occasionally with her son, who is now at university. Trish can be found on Twitter at @mumsgoneto

Cornwall often pops up on these round-ups - such a favourite county for so many people and perfect for families.
