    12 places to visit in Ottawa

    It is not today that I have been receiving questions and comments requesting information about what to visit in Ottawa, usually for 1 or 2 days of visit to the city. A lot of people end up fitting a short tour to Ottawa between the visit of Montreal and Toronto and I must say that usually no one regrets. I start by saying that the best time to visit Ottawa is from May to September. During this period the days are longer, temperatures are mild to high and you can enjoy both inside and outside. If you're one of those who don't want to catch heat since it's coming to…

    Welcome 2017 | New Year

    Celebrating our birthday – on Christmas Day I start the year wishing you much health, prosperity and love for everyone! What a rush that was that last month of 2016 huh! For us it seems that so much has happened, all together mixed together. My message for the new year that we be more focused on our own goals and our achievements, whether they are large or small. Let us celebrate who we are and what we have today, not just past things or the plans of the future. And also, that we stop comparing our lives and choices with those of others, things that are not always easy with…

    Cancun – Mexico

    If you followed the social networks of the blog and my staff, you must have seen that we fled the late Canadian autumn to get a warm, a vitamin D and find part of the family in a new place for all of us, in Cancun, Mexico. I’ve always heard of the region and it’s always been on my list of places to know and I can now say that it did not disappoint. Although, our routine and activities were well focused on the family, the children and we do not know the hype and nightlife that are famous of Cancun. So in this post I will tell you a…

    Travel with children | 2 and 5 years

    For those who follow us here, on facebook or instagram, already know that we like to travel whenever possible. We prefer to travel than buy material things, so shopping is not our strong suit, but willingness to travel yes.  Even with the arrival of the furry cubs and daughters, we kept the urge to go out there, taking with us not only suitcases, but also the daughter. The dogs have been on some short trips with us when we went by car, but the two are stressed out with other dogs, so they stay off trips most of the time. Anyway, with all this, I do not consider ourselves travel…

    How much difference a year makes…

    Amazing how the notion of time passing has two sides: sometimes we can not understand how we are already in the middle of November, just over a month of the holidays and at the same time, wow, how much to remember in these 11 and a half months of 2016. I have nostalgic days, or well saying, I'm always with that feeling that these two young ladies here at home have been growing up, talking, inventing jokes and interacting super well, but too fast. I'm sure whoever's a parent will agree with me. It is sweet and bitter, this conviction that our children grow, thus, in the blink of an…
