About

West Coast born-and-raised Canadian who loves all things ocean. A certified scuba diver who also enjoys snorkeling, swimming, surfing, windsurfing, jet skiing and, of course, long walks on the beach.

Home airports

YYC.

My travel style

Former airline employee that enjoyed plenty of budget travel but now enjoys slowing down a little and immersing myself in the local culture and customs. I love learning about new places, meeting new people and hearing about their culture. Sampling local food is always a highlight.

Favorite hotels

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya

Grand all-inclusive property inspired by traditional haciendas for adults-only with luxury suites offering views of the beach.

JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa

One-stop Desert Springs destination for pool time, golfing, spa relaxation and your pick of nine restaurants.

Recently returned from:

  • Exploring Tokyo – the cleanest city ever.

  • Wandering around Bermuda.

  • Getting scuba certified in Maui. 

  • Relaxing in beautiful Seville.

Dreaming of:

  • Spain. 

  • Italy.

  • Croatia.

  • Belize.

One thing I can't travel without...

My toothbrush.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I went bungee jumping at Niagara Falls. 

  2. I've gotten lost in Miami and got a police escort back to the highway.

  3. My wallet 'disappeared' in Las Vegas.
