  • The author traveled to Croatia with his wife and three sons during the school holidays.
  • The family holiday at the seaside became chaotic and exhausting.
  • Despite the strain, the family is considering another trip with the children next year.

Taking three children to the seaside means bringing half of home along. After a demanding school and kindergarten year, the author and his family went looking for rest in the south, traveling to Croatia with his wife and their three sons.

The trip proved chaotic and quite exhausting. Yet the question for next year is already taking shape: will they go again with all three children? The answer remains tied to the familiar promise of a seaside escape, even when the journey requires carrying an entire household and leaves the adults in need of recovery afterward.
