Travel Tips
My best travel tips to make your next adventure a great one.
Travel can be nerve-wracking. I’ve been to more than 25 countries and I still get anxious when flying off to a new place, or taking a trip with a new person. Especially if you are a solo female traveller, there’s personal safety and other considerations.
It’s also getting more and more expensive. And like many of you I care about the impact of my travels—on the environment, on the local communities I visit. The decisions we make about where and how to travel are more important than ever.
Which is why I’m sharing the best lessons I’ve learned while seeing the world.
I’ve started with things I wish I’d known when I started my travelling – like what to pack for a trip, the best sun protection, how to pick a small group tour, etc. You’ll also find my fave things to do in the world’s great cities like Paris and my homebase of Toronto. Even more tips coming soon!
