In September, Will and I embarked on a 10-day Europe trip that spanned England, the Netherlands, and Belgium. Our trip commenced with three days in Amsterdam, followed by a lovely three days in Belgium. This post will break down everything we did in Brussels to …
In late September, my partner and I set off on a ten-day Europe trip together. Over the ten days, we visited London, Amsterdam, Brussels, and Bruges and had a fantastic time in each place. In this post, I’ll be breaking down everything we did during …
Located along the shores of Georgian Bay, Tobermory is known for its beautiful crystal blue water, scenic hiking, and historic shipwrecks. The town of Tobermory itself is quaint and gives major East Coast vibes despite being located in Southern Ontario. My family is lucky to live only a couple hours drive away, so one weekend we decided to pack up the car and embark on a perfect one-day trip to Tobermory. Continue reading A Perfect Day in Tobermory

This was my second Thanksgiving weekend spent away from home with friends. If you have been following along with my adventures for a while then you may recall that I spent Thanksgiving weekend on Vancouver Island with my friend Ali back in 2021. We were …
I’m lucky enough to have been to New York City on a couple of different occasions prior to this trip. My first experience with the city was when I turned 13 years old. At the time, we had extended family living in the city. For my 13th birthday, my mom and I spent a long weekend in New York and stayed with our relatives. My second experience with the city was three years later when I travelled to New York with my high school orchestra. These were two very different trips that allowed me to see different parts of the city and experience it in two different ways: with family and then with friends and peers.

Our adventure in Spain really began in Nice, France. If you have been following along with my previous posts, you will know that Barcelona was the third major stop on our tour through Southern Europe in fall 2022. First came a nine-day tour of Italy …
After our tour through Italy (read about that here), Alyssa and I spent a lovely three (and a half if we’re counting travel) days in the South of France along the French Riviera. I have previously travelled to Paris (read about my nine days in Paris here), but had not explored the country beyond that. It’s almost hard to believe that the South of France and Paris are in the same country. The climate, foliage, architecture, and even the culture are, in my opinion, drastically different, making the two hard to compare. I personally loved the South of France and would go back in a heartbeat. In this post I have outlined what we did, where we stayed, and what we ate during our three days in the South of France. I hope you all enjoy! Continue reading Touring the Best of the French Riviera in Three Days
In early September I set off on a three-week trip around various parts of southern Europe with my roommate Alyssa. Our adventure began with nine fantastic days touring around Italy. We started in Venice, then hit Rome, travelled to Naples and explored the Amalfi Coats …
