A Year of Adventures
Why I’m Returning to Chiang Mai, In March!
Share Believe it or not, I’m not writing this in response to a post by another blogger about why they don’t like Chiang Mai. Nope. I’m writing this post because I barely booked a flight from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. I haven’t booked my flight to Bangkok yet, but I’ve covered my trip from Bangkok [...]
Dear Massimo, Sorry about the tablecloth…
Share My intentions were good. I heard about your restaurant from Tabatha, and to avoid places like Taco Bell and Boston Pizza, I decided to throw caution to the wind and treat myself to dinner at The Rainbow Room at the Crowne Plaza. My reservation was for 5:00 p.m., the first seating of the evening. [...]
Snowshoeing at Thirty Bench Winery
Share **Author’s note: Last year I participated in my first snow sport, snowboarding. It was fun. It was also a little painful. I don’t normally do snow sports, however I feel that I need to try new things and expand my horizons. PLUS, my complete ineptitude could make a great story. At least that is [...]
I Pigged Out in New York
Share It’s true I pigged out in New York. It was hard not to. How on earth could I travel to New York and starve myself?! No, no, that just would not do! The afternoon I arrived in New York, I was slammed with appointments. Touring a couple of hotels, then going to Brooklyn to [...]
A Visit to Coney Island
Share The subway car was nearly empty as it stopped at W 8th Street NY Aquarium. Alisha and I got off and walked through the station, down the stairs and onto the street. The sun was shinning, the sky was clear and blue, the air was cool, but not cold and there was no snow [...]

My Crazy Travel Notions That Make No Sense
Share If you’ve read this blog more than once you’ll know that I tend to do (and sometimes say) things that make absolutely no sense. I have no idea what it says about me. I’m not sure I want to know. This year I seem to be challenging myself and looking for more ways to [...]
I Went Snowshoeing, and I Liked It
I almost skipped out on the snowshoeing. I almost wimped out. Almost!
Health Check-Ups Before and After a Trip
Share I’ve recently decided to write a series of articles about health and travel. I know what you’re thinking, why would a girl who can’t stand to go to a doctor write about health and travel? Well there are a few reasons. One of them being the fact that if I take care of myself, [...]
Tick Off the Turkish Sights on the Mongol Rally
Share All you lucky people speeding off on the Mongol Rally are probably so busy finding visas, sponsors and more people to brag to that you might have forgotten about the most fun part – planning some sightseeing! The drive through Turkey’s colourful, heritage-rich landscape will be a highlight of your journey, but there’s [...]
My Travel Mojo Is Playing Hide & Seek
Share Last night when I slowly carried my things to the second floor of the HI Calgary, it was really this morning. It was after midnight. I was tired. My flight from Toronto had been delayed at the gate for 30 minutes, which meant 30 minutes less sleeping time. I opened the door to room [...]
