What can be more Canadian this time of year, than maple syrup?! Growing up abroad, I have to be honest, I never had any maple syrup, and having always had rice, I never had a pancake! Visiting and learning all about maple syrup didn’t come until my adulthood. Yeah, I know, but what can you …
Having got off the plane in the morning, and met our custom’s agent with a gruff nod in Danang Airport. We were met by the kindest hired driver who drove us into Hoi An, were we would be staying for 10 days. The first stop, find food, which was a rather humorous story. Nothing was …
For as long as I can remember, Vietnam had haunted me. The stories my grade 7 Geography teacher had shared, its beauty, its people, its innocence and resilience.

I am switching things up today, and sharing a few photos one of my favourite places in the world. This is Maduradam in the Netherlands. It is a miniature village, nestled in the Hague. We visit this little attraction every single time we head to the Netherlands. It is absolutely brilliant, and magical. There are …
Niagara Falls is probably one of the most stunning and alluring natural falls. The Canadian side is spectacular, the city however, is tacky, ugly, and can be skipped!
