In today’s episode we dove into all of your questions about the Olympics! We know this isn’t an olympic year but we get so many questions from you guys asking about the ins and outs of how the olympics work we wanted to answer them! From the food in the Olympic village and how kid-friendly of an environment it is to translators, tie breakers, coaches and more! We felt so grateful to attend the 2024 Olympic Games as a family and truly made memories we’ll never forget. Hope you learn something in this episode!
