For entrepreneurs John and Erynn Montgomery, it is clear that combining their business with their personal passion has become a winning equation for all.

Guess who has holiday space in the Galapagos? 🙋🏻Friends, this opportunity is so rare and among the most important trips you can do as a family. 🐢🐠🌿 Galapagos Safari Camp is one of our favorite places in the world. We’ve booked this property for couples, families, celebrities, and even our own gaggle of girls. Everyone loves it!

Space in the Galapagos is usually impossible to find for the December & January holidays, even a year in advance. Well, happy holidays! We have space and we want your family to enjoy it.

Hanging onto summer experiences like our lives (and sanity) depend on it. Seriously, Lake Powell in the fall is heaven.

You know you’re in LA when it takes 45 minutes to drive 8 miles. Oh well, at least Cornelius got to surf.

I decided I didn’t like social media – the dopamine hits, the time suck, keeping up with the perceived awesomeness of it all. So, I traveled a lot without posting at all. Then, I spent a long weekend exploring with friends – wonderful people I wouldn’t have known without Instagram. I thought of all the friends (and job hires) I’ve made because of these online connections and decided to dig out the old password and move forward in the spirit of gratitude.

Kat Boden Dayton does it again. Epic fun. New dispatch complete with instructions on how (and why) to throw your kid off a mountain.

Anything can happen with three boys, the Swiss Alps, and an old James Bond movie set. And by anything, I mean some epic Bond-like stunt.

I logged out of Instragram (without knowing the password) as soon as I posted the last shot so I wouldn’t chicken out. 😜 Thanks for being so kind. 🙏🏻 We have so many amazing photos and experiences from this 7th continent. Antarctica is dramatic, and so are the changes you feel by visiting—equal parts humility and inspiration. This continent challenges thoughts, ideas, and feelings. Its spirit brings out the healer, the adventurer, the seeker, the student, and the child in everyone. Contact our team at Mosaico Travel if it’s calling to you. 🌎 @ Antarctica

I know I’ll regret sharing this photo—much more flesh than I’m accustomed to preserving in digital form—but the polar plunge was spectacular and I want to remember it. Besides, John and I are old enough to know we need to take care of our bodies and much too old to care what others think of them anyway.

IAATA standards restrict visitors from approaching or touching animals. The animals themselves are free of such restrictions. If you sit still on the beach and make wheezy barking noises, a weener (newly weened seal pup) may approach. This one came up to our legs, looked up at us with sappy eyes, and seemed to beg for milk and sympathy. No petting. Must resist. Must not pet the weener. ☺️

Imagine Jabba-the-Hutts chest bumping. Imagine pencil fighting with bratwursts. Fat slapping fat, accompanied by the worst sounds of a public bathroom. 😳 On impact, the seals try to cut each other’s necks and faces with incisors. These animals are gross and irresistible—like an entire species of thirteen-year-old boys.

We waved goodbye to the kids for this trip. Two important reasons why: Antarctica is no joke 🤑 and to you’ve got to be old enough to contain your own vomit. 🤢 (What age is that BTW because I’m pretty sure we’re behind?) Fifty hours of cruising the Drake Passage is no joke, people. But worth every penny and used up barf bag. Especially when these little cuties come out to great you.

Had to convert this photo to black and white because the non-filtered iceberg blue looked fake. 💙Thought we would share a few of the highlights from Antarctica before the weather at home turns really warm. Truth be told, I didn’t even know this place should have been on my bucketlist. Is it on yours?

Uh, ya. Every photo before and after this was a total flop. 😣😜Thinking about jumping back into social media after an unintentional hiatus. Wowza. Life got crazy and something had to give. Thanks for sticking around. We’ve missed you and we’ve got some good things and great deals coming your way soon.

Wherever you are this season, Happy Holidays! 🎄The last few months have been insane training new team members and designing vacations for our clients. This Christmas, we’re just so happy to be celebrating with quiet phones from our makeshift home – the garage. 😳 We hope you are happy and hopeful this holiday season. 🙏🏻

Once a year take a trip without kids. And sometimes, get as far away as possible. 😜
