Growing up, I was always dreaming of discovering the world, fascinated by the different people, cultures, and traditions around me.
Thankfully, life’s circumstances, (or was it my own will unconsciously?!), made it that I ended up leaving my cocoon and leading an expats life.
When you live far from your family, you end up building a whole support system around you, and your friends become eventually the family you create, but sadly in this type of life, people move a lot, and this family you created ends up in fragments in every part of the world!
You first make promises to see each other regularly and you tend to keep these promises until you start having your own little family and this is where things become complicated!
Having kids and a family of your own is magical but it is nonetheless a life changer. When you become a parent, you quickly realize that you have to adapt to a new rhythm, a new routine. What seemed to be a spontaneous simple day out now needs planning ahead and bags to pack. So if a small day at the mountains needs all of this planning, what can we say about a small weekend getaway to catch up with some old friends or family? This becomes, sadly, a very hard thing to do, and with all the planning and the packing that needs to be done, most parents end up just giving up and postponing these plans for when “the kids will grow older”.
When I got to that part of my life where I wasn’t seeing my friends as much as I wanted, and where I was finally ready to start a family of my own, I thought that I needed to find a solution to this “tricky situation” and just simplify travelling and moving around with the kids. This is how my husband and I got the idea of Pony on Wheels; we just wanted to provide a service to facilitate the life of travelling families.
By the time the idea developed in our heads, I had started noticing that the world is heading towards a different way of consumption. Whether it was for environmental reason, financial issues, more conscious behavior, etc... People were less interested in extensive buying. Sharing, reusing, renting was becoming more acceptable and a new economy was being created, one where you can rent/share almost everything from your clothes to your party items. A sharing economy was becoming the trend whether it is a designer’s bag or a car ride, you could share and rent almost everything!
Then, why not rent your children essentials?!
