While I've been saying for a while that I'm going cut back a little on expensive travel, it was neither the right time or place to do so when a couple of my best friends from St. Francis Xavier University decided to take a girls trip to Las Vegas.
This trip was definitely going to happen, but it was going to be on the cheap.…

Hope for Sea Turtles at the Tortugranja
During a visit to Isla Mujeres it is worthwhile to rent a golf cart or bicycle to tour the island. At a mere 650 m wide and 7 km long, this is easily achieved in a day, and at a leisurely pace.One of the must-do's along the way is the Tortugranja (turtle farm) at Sac Bajo. The farm is supported by both the Mexican government and the public, and works to increase the chances of sea turtles survival in the wild by protecting…See More

The best dishes I've had there have been prepared quite simply, and highlight fresh, local ingredients.Peppers at…See More
Paradise Found on the Island of Women - Isla Mujeres
About a year ago, I began doing some research on how best to use a soon-to-be expired Aeroplan flight credit for anywhere in Canada, the U.S., or Mexico.The winter chill had set in here in Fredericton, so I immediately envisioned a getaway to a warm and beachy destination. With the flight already covered and a plan to travel on my own, an all-inclusive, mega resort experience didn't appeal. My main search criteria were: 1) a safe and secure destination…See More

Winter Fun in Northern New Brunswick, Canada
Growing up in rural, northern New Brunswick, I was so busy planning my escape to a bigger, more exciting location that I didn't fully appreciate the great qualities of the place I called home.
