I depart for London in just over 3 weeks and I’ve got plenty on our to-do list for that trip. But I have my sights on June 2017 (always wanderlusting) in Provence. I figured it would be a great place to turn 30 with my husband or even solo if no one can make it.… Continue Reading
Life has been so busy lately I have barely had time to celebrate the year my website turns 5. It’s official birthday was in March of this year but with the redesign underway I wasn’t able to give it a proper post. This week my family was rooting through images looking for suitable photos to… Continue Reading
Ok. Maybe I should rephrase that. One of the best meals I had in Paris was in fact eaten at a Greek restaurant in a terribly touristy area. France has just beat Nigeria in the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil, hence the craziness in the image above. We had snuck out our small packed bar… Continue Reading
Raised on my tippy toes I struggled to see the hall of mirrors for what it was in its entirety. People of all nationalities and all languages were buzzing about to and fro without any sign of slowing. I stumbled off the tips of my feet and fell into a girl making what’s known as… Continue Reading
A narrow quiet candlelit dinning room with accents of slate, natural woods and a chalkboard with expertly handwritten “Shalapata” across it in white chalk. We were the typical tourists that night dinning at an early 6:o0 pm for Parisians which meant we were the first to arrive on a Sunday evening at Les Bistronomes. I… Continue Reading

No matter how your trip is going in Paris – good, bad or a topsy-turvey mixture of both – nothing will settle you in more than a relaxing drift along the Seine. There we were the six of us floating past the Eiffel Tower with a glass of chilled Champagne in our hands. Cut to… Continue Reading
Things never quite work out how you planned them to be. This is especially the case while traveling. Before departing Canada I had customized our own tour of the Champagne region for 6 people. I arranged the train tickets (Paris to Reims, Reims to Epernay, Epernay to Paris) with a stop at the Veuve Clicquot… Continue Reading
Planning a birthday in Paris is tough believe it or not. My birthday falls within a week of my moms which meant we would be celebrating two birthdays in the city of light. Luckily I didn’t have the daunting task of choosing my own birthday dinner location. Instead, that burden fell to my parents and… Continue Reading
I remember hearing that the Louvre only has 10% of it’s collection on display in Paris. If you haven’t been before it is a massive museum and would take you over a month to explore every room and see every piece. That’s a daunting thought for a first timer hoping to visit the museum but… Continue Reading
A combination of her first trip abroad to Italy and living in the heart of Canada’s second largest wine region inspired her to live the Wanderfull life. When she can’t get away she tours her home of the Okanagan wine valley in British Columbia for food and wine. Wander full with her whether it’s on a VIP tour of the Louvre in Paris or hiking a vineyard trail in Kelowna.
