Travel day! Come with us on our journey in Air Canada's Premium Economy cabin from Vancouver to Osaka, Japan! Seats We were no looking forward to an almost 11 hour flight with a busy toddler.

Life is full of wonderful surprises. In the midst of my birthday week, my friend happened to need to give away a reservation at Atelier last minute. This restaurant has been on my list of restaurants to check out in Ottawa for a while now and I was more than happy to take over the reservation. This one-of-a-kind restaurant in Ottawa is #60 on Canada's 100 Best in 2017 (with a impressive standing of #19 in 2015). It offers as 12-course tasting menu which changes regularly. If you want to explore the world of molecular gastronomy, where science meets food, this is the place to be.

It all started with Aaron taking me to Fairouz for my birthday. It is #46 on Canada's 100 best 2017, the most highly ranked of all Ottawa… Continue reading Fairouz: Upscale Middle Eastern Delight
After a restless night of thinking there was an intruder in the house, only to find out it was just Aaron using the bathroom, I slowly got up. Aaron found a good smoothies stall on Foursquare, so we decided to have that for breakfast. Unfortunately, they were not yet open for business when we walked… Continue reading Asia Day 3: HCMC
We had a great start to our day, first by avoiding extreme surcharges on our Uber by waiting merely a few minutes, then bypassing a long line up at the airline's bag drop counter due to our attempt to travel carry-on only. It was a smooth ride to Toronto's airport only to find that the… Continue reading Asia Day 1: Ottawa – Toronto – Hong Kong
