The Most Breathtaking Train Journeys Across Canada’s Landscapes

February 3, 2025 by Victor JovanovichLeave a Comment

Why it is Important to Have Travel Insurance

August 20, 2024 by DaveLeave a Comment

My first trip outside of the U.S. was with family to western Canada. Inspired by the summertime scenery in the gorgeous rocky mountains including moraine lakes, glaciers, snow covered tips of mountains and wildlife, upon returning home I began to dream of more overseas travels. My next trip was to Costa Rica as part of a college sponsored trip; I remember this was the first time I swam in an ocean with warm water. And the wildlife in Monteverde … [Read more...]

Exploring the High Country: ATV and UTV Tours in Leadville, Colorado

July 19, 2024 by Dave2 Comments

One of my favorite states in the U.S. is Colorado. During my last big road trip I spent several weeks driving, hiking and biking through its mountains. Nestled high in the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of over 10,000 feet, Leadville, Colorado, is a hidden gem for adventure enthusiasts.

It’s Never too Early to Book a Winter Dude Ranch Vacation!

December 20, 2022 by DaveLeave a Comment

It may seem too early to start thinking about snow and winter! That means holidays, winter break, the new year and some craziness thrown in with all of that!
