The Maritimes are Canada’s eastern provinces: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island are jewels on the waterfront and should not be missed.

For over 125 years, the greatest rodeo in North America has been the Calgary Stampede. This may surprise some, but the annual annual rodeo, exhibition and festival held every July in Calgary, Alberta attracts over one million visitors per year.

If you follow this blog, or any of my social channels, then you know I am prone to road trips anywhere and everywhere. I find them to be the best way to connect with a country, to understand its many nuances, landscape and people. Given our current political upheaval in America, I have also found them to be a form of re-connection, and incredibly freeing. So here are some notes from the road trip.

It seemed the last few summers more and more of my fellow travelers have been flocking to beautiful Croatia, and it’s easy to see why.

My mother’s family has been in Colorado (& New Mexico) for many generations, and we would return to explore the state every summer. Continuing the tradition, I can’t believe the growth and changes in just a few years in Denver and Boulder, Colorado.

As one of the top destination in the united States, choosing a hotel in Los Angeles can be daunting given the sheer sprawl of the city. Here we break down the City and the options for you.

A fairytale City, steeped in an artistic and intellectual legacy, Vienna charms everyone who visits.

To my fellow travel lovers, writers, bloggers, photographers and more: given our love of learning when it comes to people and places, can’t we be doing more to highlight issues that need attention and also give back to organizations trying to make the world a better place?

Summer always inspires travel, near and far. So why not take the opportunity to have a spontaneous solo adventure or two? If you have flexibility this summer, and live in a major city hub, then you have to know How To Have Solo Adventure This Summer by House Sitting and Car Relocating options (we have tested them, trust me).

Toronto is the fourth-largest city in North America and perhaps the most culturally diverse. So it should be of no surprise that some of the largest international festivals happen here, and I recently attended both the International Film Festival and Luminato International Arts Festival.

Though it is not readily known internationally (yet), this wine region to the North (Canada), Okanagan Valley is a true gem and one of my favorite places to go in the summer.

Walking around a city with no particular destination is one of the best travel experiences. Immersing yourself in the sights, sounds, feel of a place yet undiscovered will often tune you into yourself again. So let’s go get lost…

This week we lost a giant. Not just the incredible storyteller, traveler, host, author and chef, but a man of integrity, authenticity and originality who moved around the world with ease, connecting with people from all walks of life. Anthony Bourdain, you will be greatly missed.
