Hi, I am Mariam!

I’m a working mom of two and the person behind Lady Out of Office. Before kids, my husband and I traveled extensively together. Today, we travel differently, finding destinations, hotels, and experiences that actually work for our family.

I created Lady Out of Office to make family travel planning easier, helping busy parents figure out where to go, where to stay, and what’s actually worth doing with kids.

Everything here is based on our real family travels, with honest hotel reviews, practical itineraries, and the details I wish I had when planning our own trips
