Tofino, BC | A Surf, Coffee + Kombucha Lover’s Paradise 

September 5, 2017 by Nick Joly 4 Comments

tofino BC explore discover best hotels in tofino

Have you ever seen one of those movies where a journalist visits a small town to uncover its dark underbelly of secrets + what lies beneath? You know that eery feeling you get when the music cuts to a soft yet sharp tune, and the camera slowly pans on a grey scene of the city? That is how I felt the entire time I was in Tofino. Just kidding. Slash, not really.  ...

Traveling British Columbia | Go, See, Find, Be, Sleep, Do.

what to do in british columbia travel plans

2017 was in our laps, and my heartmate and I had a decision to make on where we would next vacation. Europe, South America, Australia? To be honest, we’d been itching to visit Japan for a WHILE, but we figured, in honour of Canada’s 150th, we would order our parks passes and set for the west. I’ve always been partial to the west coast (re: the best coast), and shared a piece not long ago on living an east coast life with a west coast vibe. To maximize the value of our (free) national ...

LOV Restaurant | Top Vegan Montreal Restaurant Guide + Menu Picks

April 18, 2017 by Nick Joly Leave a Comment

LOV Montreal Top Vegan Restaurant

Old Montreal.  Charming. Quaint. Cultured. And a melting pot of gourmet restaurants, cafes, art galleries and more. The science centre is in old Montreal, a favourite spot of mine to visit as a kid, as well as gorgeous parks like Parc Jean Drapeau and Marche Bonsecours. If you're a local in Montreal, then tapas and wine bars like Philemon, Verses or Santos aren't new to you. Neither is one of my favourite lunch spots; Olive et Gourmando, or lux shopping boutique, SSENSE. What IS new to the ...

Where to Stay in San Diego – Marriott Marquis Waterfront

April 15, 2017 by Nick Joly Leave a Comment

where to stay in san diego hotel city guide marriott marquis waterfront

California. The Sunshine State. Also, my favourite of the states, and where I’d love for my heartmate and I to live one day. I’ve always seen travelling as a learning experience, no matter the location. The concept of being in a NEW place alone, opens your eyes and your mind to new sights, new opportunities. As you know, I recently swapped Toronto city living for California sunshine on a trip San Diego. On that trip I got to explore California’s second largest metropolitan city, (the ...

[ San Diego Food Guide ] Eat Your Way Through The City! 

April 7, 2017 by Nick Joly 1 Comment

San Diego Food Guide Inspired by Nick Best Vegan Food California

From either my mildly entertaining / self-deprecating insta-stories this week, or my recent blog post, you likely know that I’ve been traveling (re: eating my way) through San Diego! As I swapped cool Toronto city living for warm San Diego beach vibes, I made it a point to assimilate myself into the California lifestyle and stop at every health-conscious, all-organic, and plant-based restaurant & cafe I could find! First stop was Cafe Gratitude, and they should’ve charged me rent!  ...

Toronto to San Diego. Swapping City Living for Cali Beach Vibes.

San Diego California Inspired by Nick

Hey friends! I’m coming to you live from 30,000 feet up, as I soar from my home in Toronto, Ontario to San Diego, California! This will actually be first time visiting California and I’m soooooOOOOoooOOOoooo excited! Because I’m the worst at planning trips, I haven’t given any thought as to what I’d like to visit, aside from the San Diego Zoo! (Mostly to see the Madagascar movie characters but shhh!)  ...

Washington DC – Food & City Guide

Washington DC Food & City Guide

On a scale of 1-10, how addicted are you to the TV series, Homeland?! How about Netflix's House of Cards? I'd say that I'm ABOUT... an 18 on 10. Homeland is actually one of mine and S' most binge-watched TV shows EVER! And I remember back to having watched the first two seasons in full, in one weekend. We were hooked! House of Cards is my current television addiction. I'm way behind but I've made the conscious decision to take it slow, one episode at a time... having learned from the sleepless ...

[Greece] 3 Must Visits in Athens

October 6, 2016 by Nick Joly Leave a Comment

Greece Must Visit in Athens

I remember borrowing a book on Greece from the school library when I was a teenager. You know, the generic textbooks you see lined up in the European History section, where the books' titles are simply the name of the country. This was in the early 2000's, which means the book itself was probably published in the 90's (at best). Anywho, I remember flipping through the pages and learning about (read: falling in love with) Greece's customs and history, and browsing pictures of what the country ...

Ciao Amici!! I'm officially back home in Toronto from an exciting trip to the Amalfi Coast with (get this!) my husband! Yep!
