We arrived via Europe where the financial crisis hit hard and swallowed our hard earned savings. After a few nights in Vancouver, British Columbia to get our ‘grown up’ jobs done (social security numbers, phones etc.) we boarded a bus that would take us to Whistler. It was everything I imagined it to be, snow covered mountains surrounding a cozy village with endless hotels, shops, bars & restaurants...

In October last year my husband and I spent five wonderful days cruising along the Canal du Midi in the sunny south of France.

Rain in Melbourne, Australia today had us thinking about the warm weather elsewhere and the beautiful beaches we have been to. Boracay is right at the top of that list.
Always teeming with people, it is warm year round and the sunsets are, quite rightfully, famous. This shot was taken in early April during the Easter celebrations on the island.
Stunning destination…and world renowned if your wind-boarder.
