Shaina Azam

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Hi! My name is Shaina, and I'm a Pakistani-American expat living in Amsterdam with my husband and three little kids. We have been fortunate to travel quite a bit. Our four-year-old just visited his 30th country, our two-year-old visited her 27th, and four-month-old baby is getting ready for his sixth! So we have quite a bit of experience traveling with toddlers and babies. I am not going to sugar-coat it, traveling with littles can be HARD. But with incorporating the right strategies, preparation, and mindset, it can still be enjoyed! I can help provide insight on these strategies to optimize your trip, as well as chat with you on general questions or destination specific questions.
