In case you haven’t heard, Montrealers are gaga over food. Montreal’s food scene is vibrant, urban, and international. Montrealers start their day with fresh baked pastries and bagels, use their lunch breaks to take cooking classes, and swing by Montreal’s markets on their way home. Dare I say that it practically borders on a food […]
A Monumental Moment
We share a lot about us personally through our travel tales, but we still like to keep a few secrets here and there and rarely share the big moments in our lives. Today is a bit different because I am so very proud of a huge accomplishment! If you’ve been following us for a while […]
The Billion Dollar Copper Camp
Literally clinging to the Cleopatra Hill, Jerome, Arizona was built atop a vast copper mine. The town has several claims to fame: it’s known as the Billion Dollar Copper Camp and because of it’s precarious perch at 5,435 feet above sea level, Jerome is also known as America’s Most Vertical City. Jerome was also once […]
Wine Wednesday: Kayaking for Wine
While checking out southern Arizona’s wineries like the kitschy Arizona Hops & Vines, I heard about northern Arizona’s wine country and some fun ways to explore the wineries like the Verde Canyon Grape Escape Wine Train and an adventurous Water to Wine Tour. Having ridden the Napa Valley Wine Train before, I decided kayaking the […]
10 Reasons to Stay at Omni Mont-Royal Montreal
I recently spent a wonderful five days in Montreal with the sophisticated Omni Mont-Royal as my Montreal home. Located on historic Sherbrooke Street in the heart of Montreal’s Golden Square Mile, the Omni Mont-Royal is the very hotel that Quebec-born singer Celine Dion chose for her lavish wedding reception and holed up for a romantic […]
Getting Jive-y With It
I felt like I darted from the rainy night right into the movie Grease. Girls were in full swing skirts and polka dots. Hairdressers made sure those beehives stayed in place with industrial strength hairspray and bobby pins. Melvis and the Jive Cats were getting everyone All Shook Up with tunes from the fifties. I […]
Montreal’s Urban Sugar Shack
The province of Quebec is recognized as the leading producer of maple syrup worldwide and every spring Montrealers head out of the city for a true country hoedown at any one of the cabane à sucre (sugar shacks). But you don’t have to leave Montreal to get the sugar shack experience. The ultraromantic and refined […]
Montreal by Moped
I now have a new tale to add to my all-too-long list of most embarrassing travel moments. I was so incredibly excited to explore Montreal by moped with DYAD Montreal Tours. My All-in-One tour would have me zipping through four of Montreal’s districts after a short lesson and “driving test”. But I just couldn’t get […]
Wine Wednesday: Arizona Hops and Vines
We lived in Arizona for six years and I honestly didn’t even realize that grapes could grow in the desert! So when my friend Camella invited me to explore some of Sonoita’s (southern Arizona’s wine country) wineries, I couldn’t wait to see just how Arizona wine measured up. I absolutely loved the casual, cool, and […]
A Garden of Stories at Tohono Chul Park
Tohono Chul Park is a beautiful 49-acre botanical garden in a suburb of Tucson, Arizona. The park has been connecting patrons with nature, art, and culture for over 25 years and I was more than happy to spend a few hours exploring it. The gardens are full of beautiful desert flora like prickly pear and […]
