10 days in Ecuador! Spent 10 days in Ecuador, starting with 2 days in the capital Quito! Quito wasn’t my favorite city I’ve visited for sure, but well equipped with an extensive history if you’re willing to research.

Costa Rica – Nuevo Arenal We stayed at a hotel named La Mansion Arenal overlooking the Arenal Lake. It was absolutely gorgeous. They are suites that are basically little homes separated from each other. The suites are big and gorgeous. They are traditional pueblo styled and are not fancy high tech suites like in your Hiltons and Marriott’s. If you want the real Costa Ric…

When I type in or look to book “toronto to sydney” I find a flight with one stop in Vancouver for 1502.

The Lake District and Cornwall, England The two most beautiful regions in the country, in my opinion (although there are many!) The Lake District photos were taken in late summer to early autumn in Kirkstone Pass (photos 1-2), Windermere (3) and Place Fell near Ullswater (4-6) respectively. The Lake District is in the northwest of England and is a national park. It’s pretty cool ther…

Peru – Book tours in person vs in advance/online Hi! I’ve heard that if you book tours in person when you are there in Peru (like Iquitos Amazon, Humantay Lake, Sacred Valley tours, etc) you’ll get a better deal. How does one go about booking these tours in person, if not through a hostel/hotel concierge? Would be staying at Airbnbs as we are a family of 5. Are there specific areas/locations w…
