I was thrilled to spend my first Mother’s Day in a real-live CASTLE. Despite having lived in Europe for a decade, as a Canadian at heart this was an unforgettably special experience for me. I have been sleeping in a variety of accommodations in 112 countries, anywhere from train station […]
The remnants of our ancestors are speckled across the planet, waiting to be admired. Some are still eagerly waiting to be discovered and have their hidden messages unravelled. Their crumbling walls leave traces of history and tell stories that reflect our own lives today. Take a journey through […]
Lesotho is one of two countries landlocked within the country of South Africa, the other being Swaziland. It holds the record for being the country with the highest low point, that being 1,400 m. Of all the 111 countries I’ve visited Lesotho is the only one I haven’t […]
Now that I have a newborn baby I have been looking into less adventure and more relaxation for our near-future travels with little Tripp. I know there are many of you out there who are also craving that escape so I’ve compiled eight fantastic relaxation destinations. Below is […]
Travel is all about enhancing the senses. In its basic form travel is about going on a wild ride to discover textures of the world. Watch the waves crash and foam on sandy shores as you journey coast to coast, marvel at the jagged peaks of barren ridges […]
In 2016 mom and I departed on a fantastic last minute road trip through Scandinavia and The Baltic States. Latvia was a first for both of us and one of the stops of our 10-Country 10-Capital City road trip. We stayed in a very great location in the […]
The night before we had stayed a two-hour drive from the Neuschwanstein castle opting for a very early morning rather than paying outrageously expensive hotel costs to sleep near the very touristic castle. I must confess that before visiting I knew very little about Neuschwanstein Castle. During the tour Anita […]
Adventure does not always have to be a grand round the world trip, an excursion to the top of mount Everest or a sailing trip across oceans. Some may envy others’ adventurous lifestyles but adventure is truly in the eye of the beholder. A trip to the grocery […]
When compared to wild adventures through African in a self-built MAN truck, camel safaris in India or flying into the middle of the Pacific Ocean to reach the mysterious Easter island, some may consider a vacation in Europe underwhelming in comparison. Some of my most rewarding travel experiences […]
We all know the wonders of olive oil and sunflower oil, the two most common oils we use for cooking, in salads etc and if you’re like me, after a shower to keep your skin hydrated (bet you didn’t know that!). But have you ever heard of pumpkin […]
SLOVENIA- The Only Country With the Word LOVE In It! To be honest, I don’t know if that’s a true statement, I haven’t checked, but when I heard someone say that I thought, perfect! Originally Slovenia was not one of the countries on my urgent must-see travel list. […]
TRAVEL MEMORIES – A Priceless Collection Life is a funny thing. We all have our silly little quirks, things that keep us ticking and we’re all hoarders in our own ways. One way or another we manage to collect, be it expensive possessions in hopes of standing out, […]
A couple hour drive from Czech Republic’s we found ourselves amidst the spacious and historic city of Vienna. The grand scale of Vienna is beyond what a person can grasp in just a single day. With the help and recommendations from the Vienna tourism we had a small culinary tour […]
Kazakhstan was the fourth country I ever visited abroad and will always have a special place in my heart and memories for that reason. Although we were only able to stay a short time due to visa complications, we still left with some great, laughable and memorable stories […]
Japan is a country that I can’t wait to visit and have had on my list since I was a little girl. I grew up with Japanese students in my home and hearing all about the wonderful places to visit. Ammon and Sasha just returned from a visit […]
