I thought we’d leave cultural city trips until the kids are a little older and can appreciate architecture and art.
For now, our family holidays would focus on the vast outdoors: beaches, mountains, rice paddies. Anywhere we can enjoy fresh air and get rid of all that energy.

No sooner said than done and within weeks all four of us were sitting on tiny plastic chairs on a Hanoi street corner, savouring fragrant local dishes.
