Ciao Bambino!

Ciao Bambino was born from my desire to maintain the adventurous lifestyle I cherished before having kids—a lifestyle rich in travel. I originally thought that the year-long sabbatical my husband and I took in 2001 would satisfy my wanderlust, allowing me to settle down and start a family with ease. However, that final adventure before becoming a parent only fueled my passion for exploring new places. I had no idea then how wonderful family travel could be, and as a result, the mission of Ciao Bambino evolved from simply making travel possible to creating meaningful travel experiences for families at every age and stage.

But that image couldn’t be farther from the experience offered by today’s high-end cruise lines, and luxury cruising is seeing an uptick in bookings by a whole new group of travelers. Why? Think butlers instead of bunk beds. Michelin-level cuisine instead of buffets.

I knew I needed a break from my phone the day I tapped it against the deadbolt of my front door and waited for it to click open, smart lock-style. So one day, I just did it. I left my device on the kitchen counter and took myself on a waterside walk, stopped at a cafe for a leisurely breakfast, read an actual newspaper and silently reacquainted myself with the messages in my heart instead of my inbox. Oh yeah, I experienced withdrawal symptoms.
