How do I explain this feeling to someone who thinks libraries are boring? Prague doesn’t have one beautiful library. It has three of the most beautiful and historic libraries in the world, and here’s the thing nobody tells you: you don’t walk inside them. You stand in the doorway and look in. And…

Prague doesn’t do normal art. 7 structures to spot around the city. Send this to your travel partner and save it for later. 📍 1. An upside-down horse in a shopping arcade The Upside-Down Horse Lucerna Passage, New Town, just off Wenceslas Square 2. A giant head that never stops moving Head of…

Welp, I guess we’re getting a 4th tree now 😂❤️ #christmas #christmastree

Why stay at an all-inclusive when you could explore castles and see spires, medieval bones, and ancient churches? #prague #castles #czech #medieval #travel

Prague’s Astronomical Clock has been telling time for over 600 years, and the story behind it is darker than the clock itself. Legend says the city councillors were so proud of it, and so worried someone else might get one, that they had the clockmaker blinded so he could never build another…

27,000 books sit on these shelves, and no one has opened one in about 300 years. This is the Baroque Hall of the Klementinum in Prague, opened in 1722. The globes were handmade by the Jesuits who built it, the ceiling is one long painting about science and art, and the only way to see it is on a…

This monastery in Prague has TWO libraries that will take your breath away. This is the first one. This is the Theological Hall at Strahov Monastery, built in the 1670s and still holding around 18,000 books, almost all of them about theology. One whole wall is just Bibles in different languages…

The 114km/h winds and sideways rain made it less like a magazine worthy destination and more like monsoon season. We skipped the waterfalls because it would be too wet and windy 😂 #iceland #bluelagoon #travel #traveldiaries #travelinspiration

In March 1988, the legendary band Depeche Mode played an unforgettable concert in Prague. A few months later, in the fall of ‘88, photographer Anton Corbijn took photos of the band around the city. One of those photos, taken on Charles Bridge near the Pieta sculpture, became iconic. Today…

One of the most fun dinners we had in Prague, and it started with a train ticket. Výtopna is a restaurant where model trains deliver your food and drinks. When you walk in, you get an actual train ticket with your table number on it, then you follow the coloured dots on the floor to your seat. You…

Maybe it’s $10, maybe it’s $200. I just know it’s beautiful here and it’s easy to spend money when you have no idea how much it’s worth 🤷 #prague #prague🇨🇿 #travel #czech #travelling

The Philosophical Hall at Strahov Monastery in Prague, finished in the 1790s and holding around 42,000 books. The walnut shelves were brought here from a dissolved monastery, the ceiling took the painter about six months, and there are hidden staircases behind fake book spines to reach the top…

Coming from Canada which has only officially been a country for 159 years, it’s insane to see buildings that took 600 years to build and some that are 900+ years old! 📍Prague, Czech Republic, Europe #europe #travel #prague #czechrepublic🇨🇿 #travelling

Save this before Prague and send it to your travel partner, because most tourists walk right past it. It’s only a few hundred metres from Prague Castle, but most people never step inside the Loreta. There’s a mirror laid out on the floor of the church, and it’s there for one reason: so you can…

This one was in our top ten for Prague before we even left home. We went in the day first, and it is honestly one of the most unique art structures we have ever seen. But then we went back at night. Lights coming up from the ground, swirling around the base and reflecting off the steel while the…

Well, That's the end of the road for me and motorcycles. Went down on a group ride Friday in Victoria. A dip in the road bucked me like a bull and that was that. It’s the second time I've had to call Mariko from the hospital, and I won't put her through a third. The road was dodgy, wet leaves all…

The beauty of Elk Falls 😍 #vancouverisland #vanisle #britishcolumbia #hiking

I thought I’d try something a little different this time. 👀🏍️📹 #motorcycle #motorcycles

🏍️ BC is changing the rules for new motorcycle riders in 2027. The Province is introducing a new Motorcyclist Licensing Program (MLP) designed to give new riders more time to develop their skills and experience before getting full motorcycle privileges. Here’s what we know so far: ⏳ A much longer…

It might look like osteoporosis in the rocks… but somehow, it’s one of the most unique landscapes on Vancouver Island. 🪨🌊 Tucked along the Nanaimo shoreline, Jack Point and Biggs Park are home to some seriously unique sandstone formations, carved and sculpted by the ocean over thousands of years…

Thankfully, I’ve learned to support her through this difficult condition by saying “Where are we putting this one?”

Get off the highway. Follow the sound of the creek. Find the waterfalls. Soak in the serenity.

The best kind of live streaming event. 😍 📍Hole in the Wall, Port Alberni, Vancouver Island, BC

AND WHEN THE THINGS ON YOUR VISION BOARD BECOME THINGS ON YOUR CAMERA ROLL, MAKE SURE YOU NOTICE. 🥹✨ I hadn’t been to Alberta in over a decade, and for years I had been dying to get back to those mountains. So when we finally made the trip, driving down the Icefields Parkway and eventually pulling…

Have you found Victoria’s stairs to the sea? 🌊🌲 Tucked away along the coastline, the Stairs to the Sea are one of those little Vancouver Island spots that remind you how much beauty can be hiding right in our own backyard. A simple set of stairs surrounded by beautiful murals takes you down toward…

The rest stop that feels like a hidden gem 💎 (send this to a friend who needs a Vancouver Island road trip and save it for later) Not your average roadside stop 👀 Tucked along the road between Port Alberni and Tofino, Taylor River has become one of those must-stop spots you almost have to see for…
