I feel as though I failed myself in the lack of photos I took in Hawaii. Honestly though, pictures don’t do enough justice. You have to see it for yourself. Utterly breathtaking. The first three nights were spent at the Holiday Inn Waikiki Beachcomber, where we were upgraded to a 14th floor ocean view room – we may…

Oahu Hawaii: The Food
This trip happened quite spontaneously. While looking for flight deals to Texas, I happened upon a seat sale to Hawaii. So I texted my friend, Thao, and thankfully she was on board immediately. It’s always fun going on adventures with friends, but what I appreciate most about travelling with Thao, is her love for food. She’s the only…
Things to do in Napa Valley
Back in July, we took a quick weekend getaway to Northern California. We spent some time in San Francisco and then road tripped it up to the beautiful Napa Valley. The cost of a hotel in Napa was far more than what we were interested in paying, so we decided to go the Airbnb route….
Things to do in San Francisco
So, this post is way overdue. Like, WAY overdue. We took a quick weekend trip to San Francisco at the end of July. July, people! Better late than never I suppose. Our flight landed in the evening, so once we settled into our hotel, we made our way over to the Embarcadero. Parking wasn’t nearly…
New Orleans: The Food
I fell in love with New Orleans the moment I arrived. It’s hard to explain why. The whole city resonated with me, like I was always meant to be there. And also like I was never meant to leave. New Orleans was just a small part of a week long adventure to the South, which started in Atlanta,…
Canada Day
The day before Canada Day, we took a quick road-trip up to Saskatoon to catch a concert during Saskatchewan Jazz Fest. We love Michael Franti, and were super happy to see that he was playing the TD MainStage in Bessborough Gardens. We both had to work that day, and it took us an hour to…
Cozumel Food Tour
I’m a travel junkie. I especially love travelling and eating locally. The best food is always local, amiright?! The most memorable food I’ve ever had has always been from hole-in-the-wall, off the beaten path restaurants. Or in the case of Cozumel Mexico, way outside the normal tourist zone, and basically, inside the garage of locals….
2014 Highlights
Simply put, 2014 was amazing. It was filled with new adventures, lots of travel (I visited both coasts this year), meeting so many amazing people and of course, lots of damn delicious food! My sister and I spent a weekend in February in the mountains and I did some skating on Lake Louise. The boy…
What I Ate in Banff National Park
My boyfriend and I took a last minute trip up into the Canadian Rocky Mountains and enjoyed the first official day of summer taking in the fresh air, breathtaking sights and enjoying some quality time together. We brought our dog, Zoe, along with us for the ride and she was very popular with the other…
February Musings
I’ve been lovin’ life lately! I’ve had lots of free time and I’ve been taking advantage of it. Travelling: My sister and I took a weekend road trip up to Canmore/Banff. I scratched another item off my bucket list: Skating on Lake Louise. I could have spent the whole day on the ice, but…
