 May 16, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments Say what? You only have three days in Bangkok? Seriously?! Bangkok is home to over 12 million people, not to mention thousands of travelers. As such, there are hundreds (possibly thousands) of bars, clubs, Wats (temples), and sightseeing locations. So, in three days you will barely smudge the surface of the city. Don’t panic, I’m going to help you maximize your three days in Bangkok, so you feel like you’ve done everything. More...
 May 13, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Toronto is an awesome city, full of life, flavour, and laughter! Montreal may have the country’s largest comedy festival, but Toronto has
some of the best improv acts. If you’re planning a trip to Toronto (or if you’re new to the city) then make time to check out the following improv shows. More...
 May 02, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments It’s hard to believe that it’s May, and the ski season in Banff is winding down, especially since there has been record snowfalls this winter. However, the snow can’t last forever, and soon spring will be here, and the bears will be waking up and forging for food. This doesn’t mean winter, or the ski season ends quietly. No, in Banff that is simply not possible. More...

You need to open your eyes, and clear your mind of whatever preconceived notions you may have. More...
 April 18, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments Songkran (Thai New Year) is a celebration where the Thai people (Songkran takes place all over Asia, but I’ll just reference Thailand as that is where I am) pour water on one another to wash away bad luck. It’s a time of new life, and celebration. A time to give thanks, and to respect the element of water, an important part of the agricultural culture in Thailand (and all of Asia). More...
 April 11, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments Toronto is an amalgamation of neighborhoods (Okay, most cities are an amalgamation of neighborhoods). Each neighborhood adds a different flavour or flare to the city, and each one is unique, and interesting in its own way. More...
 April 04, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments ‘Ride an Elephant in Thailand’, this is an item on many bucket lists, but is it ethical? If you knew that elephants were being tortured and abused, would you still want to ride one? More...
 March 28, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 2 Comments In this economy many of us are looking for ways to cut back and save our money. We search a little longer for travel deals, we cut down on food expenses, and we jump for joy whenever we can find FREE and fast Wi-Fi. So, given all of these things, does it make sense to pay extra money to use an airport lounge? More...
 March 21, 2012 |by Pamela MacNaughtan | 0 Comments St. Patrick's Day is probably bigger than Christmas in Chicago, and if you have the chance to visit the city during that time, you are up for the party of your life. Just remember to pack green clothing so you blend in! More...
