Banff National Park, Alberta
Another UNENSCO World Heritage site in Alberta, Canada. Beyond the beauty of Banff National Park with gripping mountain vistas, Banff National Park has so many layers…wildlife galore, 3 world class ski resorts…geez.
Can I have more of Canmore?
Not your average small town…Canmore is where the mountains are high and the roots are deep and where every vibe is authentically Canmore.
Into the Castle in the Sky at Petrelë
Petrelë a village perched up high just outside of the capital that is known for it’s castle sitting above all else and gives Rapunzel’s tower vibes!
Ghosts, Vampires, Serial-Killers, Witches, Do you Dare?
Ghosts, Vampires, Serial-Killers, Alchemists, Witches, and mythological creatures… Do you dare to walk in the streets at night when now you know these tales and myths? I did!
Food & Beer Culture is Thriving in Budapest
May the content of the glass turn into good health for you! When in Budapest do as the Hungarians do. The street food scene and craft beer culture is incredible.

A Christmassy Concert in Budapest
Who wouldn’t want to go to a Christmassy Classical concert is a Basilica in Budapest? VIP Seating, I don’t mind if I do…because it’s worth it.
Hungarians Do Wine! Yes they do
Did you know that Hungarians KNOW Wine? This quintessential Hungarian Wine experience was an excellent evening of tastings and education and many generous glasses of liquid gold.
Is it really ruined though?
Is it really ruined though? When reinventing the wheel is a brilliant idea because sometimes you build it better the second time around…
A Tale of Two Cities: Budapest
A Tale of Two Cities: The Paris of the East and the City of Baths: Welcome to Budapest. My most favourite European city for its beauty and romantic appeal.
The hidden mini statues of Budapest
What do a murdered squirrel, a tiny tank a missing urinal and Hungarian puppet have in common? My quest for the hidden mini statues of Budapest. The scavenger hunt of all scavenger hunts.
Romantic as Ever There Ever Was
Well, if ever a city had an aura of incurable romance, Prizren is it. It is picturesque, charming and the promenade along the river at dusk is straight up something out of a fairy-tale.
When beauty isn’t obvious then you know it’s real
When beauty isn’t obvious that’s when you know it’s real. Europe’s Youngest Capital: Pristina, Kosovo…where the atmosphere is an attraction in itself.
Ooooo so Kosovo
Europe’s newest kid on the block… A small country with big conversations. Kosovo is another member of the Balkan elite. To know it is to love it, but you can’t engage with a place without engaging in all of the stories of that place.
To Bitola and Back
The Sleepy City of Bitola, the story of a journey to the south of Macedonia for a glimpse of a quaint and charmed life.
Macedonian Mountains for a Spomenik like no other
What does a spomenik shaped like a cement molecule and the Elvis of the Balkans have in common? Kruševo, a BEAUTIFUL little town perched high in the Macedonian mountains.
An Epic Tour of the East
Getting out of the city to explore the countryside and a whole new perspective is born. It was a monumental day with a legend of a guide and driver. Macedonian people are epic! Epic with expression, epic with kindness, epic with generosity.
