Day two in Vancouver! Technically, it’s day 3 but jet lag got the best of the very first day so Day 2 it is. Like I said, before, breakfast at the Shangri La Hotel in Vancouver is something of an event. It’s not something you rush – there’s no buffet – everything is made to … Continue Reading

Hawaii is one of those places where, to be honest, you’re probably not really struggling for reasons to want to visit. It just feels so familiar (you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who hasn’t heard of it) yet so mysterious (think Jurassic Park) and intriguing, all at the same time. Thing is though, for Americans, with … Continue Reading

Alberta is one of Canada’s most gorgeous provinces that’s perfect for a winter or summer jaunt.  And with so many beautiful things to do in Alberta, it’s an area you should definitely think of visiting as soon as possible. From the tiny little villages, stunning lakes, gorgeous cities to huge swathes of powdery snow – it’s … Continue Reading

The city of Edmonton in Canada is not necessarily the city everyone might have a ready-made travel plan and itinerary. Vancouver, perhaps or even Toronto but seeing as we had to get one together after visiting recently, and one that saw us make the most of the season we visited in, I figured it was … Continue Reading

Jasper, Canada is one of the biggest reasons to visit Canada in winter! This already spectacular park, and home to the Canadian Rockies totally transforms in winter to some almost fairytale-like winter wonderland. The lakes freeze over, waterfalls turn into magnificent ice sculptures and mountain roads turns into ski slopes! Not many places in the … Continue Reading

Embracing the snow, icicles and the chilly weather is something that’s amazing during a Canadian winter, especially within beautiful spots in Alberta. Now, if you’re anything like me you’ll be hankering to see some of this picturesque side of winter, with the Edmonton Ice Castle being one of the prettiest. I mean, there’s not too many … Continue Reading

When many people think of New York, they think of New York City. It’s often the first point that comes to mind and I have to admit I’m guilty of this too. Yup, It’s an incredible city and Lady Liberty is amazing to see, but there’s so much more to New York than New York … Continue Reading

Hawaii has to be one of the more unique of all the United States, am I right? After all, it’s the only island state in the whole of the country (well, so I was told). It’s a state that’s filled with some of the best scenery, gorgeous volcanic landscapes and epic vistas that are great … Continue Reading

One (of the many) things I love about the United States is how different it can be from one state to the next. It’s one of those countries where you can hop between states and places to see a totally different side to the country, which is actually a pretty great experience (did anyone say … Continue Reading

The USA is a diverse country. In fact, I’d go as far as saying it can be completely different depending on which state you visit. Form places like Hawaii, Washington and Florida – the expanse of places to explore is totally mind-boggling to me. Now, one place I always love returning to is the West … Continue Reading

It’s funny, after travelling around the United States on a road trip and other individual trips, I was a little worried that the things to do in Boston would seem quite ‘samey’ or ‘run-of-the-mill’ if you catch my drift? That’s not saying that every place in the United States is the same. Far from! But, … Continue Reading

The region between Toronto to Niagara Falls is one incredible place to explore, especially if you want a mix of city and nature during your holiday. That’s the thing that makes this region so special – the fact it has a little piece of everything. That being said, organising a week-long itinerary to travel from … Continue Reading

Look, there’s no beating around the bush! We’re totally in love with all the best places in Canada. Not only is it completely vast, with beautiful national parks and vibrant cities like Vancouver and Calgary, it’s also filled with the best road trips with Alberta and British Columbia being no exception. In fact, there’s a … Continue Reading

Look, it’s probably pretty obvious by now that I gorge on anything sweet! Drip, dip or roll it in sugar and I swear it’ll be gone without you even batting an eyelid. I like to say it’s because I just want to ‘taste the world’ or something fluffy like that the harsh reality is that … Continue Reading
