One of my favorite chairs with the best view

Megan, (MFerg) joined TravBuddy on July 26th and I looked at her profile photo and thought I could change this nice shot and maybe improve it a little by lightening it up.  So I downloaded the photo and changed the lighting, and color balance.  I hope you like it! Welcome to TravBuddy!!…

Hiking is one of my favorite things to do!

We settled into our new house well and for the first time since arriving in Canada we could set ourselves up a little bit. In the house we partied big time as every night there was someone to drink with. There was also plenty of people coming through the house. The thing that sucked though was that…

Turns out the storm brewing over Ontario is big and bad enough that they cancelled my flight. I wish they could have passed this information on to me before I went to the airport. I checked the airline and travel authority websites and everything was still a go. The big board at the airport even sa…

Yeah finally becouse it was a long drive and my wife started to loose the faith and to get tired !  it was really a test of endurance, and when we made it to the border like at 4a.m she didnt wanted to wake up and uncover her face righ in front of the canadian border officers, can you beleive …

On Sunday morning we were up around 5:30am - checkout at the hotel was 11:00am so we had a leisurely 5 hours to pack, window-shop and have breakfast before leaving the hotel. We decided to do a bit of a photo tour up and down Denman Street  while looking for a restaurant to have breakfast. Den…

Saturday was one of the best days I’ve had in such a long time. I met up with some friends on the bus in Cloverdale, and we were on our way to Wreck Beach for some get-together with people for someone’s birthday. When we got to Surrey Central we found out that no one else was going to the b…

Thus concludes my trip to Hualien, Taiwan. It didn't feel like Christmas nor New Years as they're not big holidays in Taiwan. I did fell in love with this place as the people of Hualien often say: "Hualien has really sticky soil". Once you lived there, you never want to leave.I myself have neve…

I flew from Vancouver to Osaka Kansai Airport on August 15th. It was a looong flight, especially being alone. But flying is fun so it was alright. I'm not a big fan of Japanese food, so what they gave us to eat was pretty gross I thought

So every year for 6 years(since my parents split up) my dad has been saying he'd take us to Mexico and with me leaving next month I guess he figured now'd be the time. We couldn't get anything for Mexico so he booked the Dominican. Our flight left at 7am on December 17th which meant we had to be at…

This entry is really for anyone with experience traveling in Europe who wants to dish out some advice: It's 2 months until I leave for Rome, but I've been thinking a lot about what to take - and since I'm a girl that's going to be more than what I really need I'm sure! I'm going to be spending Sept…
