Why Book a Romantic Vacation
Here at Travel Mamas, we love traveling with kids. But we also believe it’s important for parents to make time for themselves. Whether that means making room for romance on family vacation, or booking a romantic retreat without the kids. A romantic vacation gives couples a chance to reconnect and refresh their relationships. Something magical happens when we couples leave the stresses of our everyday lives behind and focus on the people we love. We seem to get along better and like each other more. And we remember why we chose our partners in the first place. I swear that annual romantic getaways with my husband have played a big part in keeping us happily married for nearly 20 years!
What to Pack for a Romantic Getaway
Packing for a romantic getaway differs from packing for a trip with children. Of course, you still need to pack the essentials like clothing and toiletries. But I encourage you to bring along a few spicier items, too. Toss a travel corkscrew into your suitcase if you’d like to enjoy a bottle of wine or two with your honey. You might want to tuck a little gift into your bag to surprise your partner, too, like jewelry, cologne or a book. Some lacy lingerie never hurt anyone, either. (Men — be sure to pack your best boxer briefs as well!) If you don’t want to expand your family or you’re traveling with a new love interest, birth control and protection from sexually transmitted diseases are essential, too.
