Kitchen Family Travels

Welcome to Kitchen Family Travels

Inspiring Affordable Adventures for the Whole Family

We’re the Kitchen family—Jess, Steve, Reuben, Megan, and Charlotte.

Based in the UK, we balance work, school, and family life while exploring the world together. Travel is central to who we are, and the more we’ve travelled, the more we see the value of experiential and non-traditional learning. Our trips immerse us in new cultures and give our children hands-on experiences that complement their school education.

Dreaming of family adventures without breaking the bank? You’ve come to the right place. At Kitchen Family Travels, we share real-life experiences, practical tips, destination guides, and worldschooling resources to help families travel the world on a budget and learn along the way. Whether it’s a weekend camping trip in Europe or a longer family adventure, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

As a UK-based family of five, we’ve spent years exploring the world— road-tripping across Europe, and exploring places like Morocco, Thailand, Korea, France and beyond. We believe travel is magic. It doesn’t have to stop when you have kids, it definitely doesn’t need to be expensive and it can teach us all something new.
