Although my family had seen photos of the hill tribes of Thailand, nothing could really prepare us for the reality of visiting the Karen tribes near the city of Chiang Mai. Our visit wasn’t the one that we had hoped for. It wasn’t one that “lived up to our expectations.” But visiting the Karen hill […]
My photos of Meteora, Greece capture the beauty and magic of the Monasteries and landscapes of one of Europe’s most picturesque regions. I made a visit to Meteora, Greece with my family including my wife, Christina, and our two boys along with Christina’s parents in March of 2023. We had been plagued with rain and […]
Nestled at the very tip of Aurlandsfjord, one of the arms of the massive Sognefjord, in western Norway, the remote town of Flam has become one of the most visited destinations in the country.

The St. Lawrence River boasts some of the richest history, culture, and scenery in all of Ontario. As someone who has been an avid road-tripper for his entire life, I was used to seeing this spectacular scenery through the windshield of my truck. But it took a three-day ride with Ontario by Bike for me […]

The food, attractions, and natural beauty of the city make it a wonderland for those looking to combine culture, education, and adventure – my top three ingredients for the perfect family vacation. You can read the […]
During a family get-together at the family farm in 2014, the family got to chatting about new ventures that they could tackle on the family’s sprawling property just outside the city of Peterborough. When the idea of jumping on to the new escape room craze was raised, the family went all-in, creating one of the biggest […]
Flavor The Globe If there is one thing that I love nearly as much as food and travel, it’s having a fun night out with friends and family. On a recent visit to Peterborough, Ontario I was introduced to a place that manages to combine the best of all three into a fun-filled experience that pairs […]
Summer in Brampton can be wonderful. Families can cool off in the colourful splash pads of Chinguacousy Park or grab some scoops from Little Shop of Ice Cream downtown. But after a year and a half of travel restrictions, Bramptonians such as myself are aching to break out of their suburban shells to embrace the […]
