Scotland and Ireland

We recently had the opportunity to explore the lovely countries of Scotland and Ireland, rich with natural beauty and cultural treasures.

 

Austro-Hungarian Regions

Recent trips took us through northern Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia and Austria. Each location has remarkable culture, art and human spirit.

 

Mediterranean Meandering

Over the past few years we have spent several months exploring several islands and coastal cities throughout countries along the Mediterranean Sea.   

 

Mexico

While serving as a wonderful respite from Canadian winter, a trip to Mexico also offers a chance to experience natural and cultural diversity.


 

Spain & Portugal

We have taken three lengthy trips to various regions of Spain and Portugal including their offshore archipelagos and islands.

     

Hawai'ian Islands

Hawai'i has always been one of our favourite places. We have visited four different islands a few times to experience their sublime essence.

       

 

 Baltic Cruise

We pursued a long-held dream of seeing countries around the Baltic Sea whose complicated history included Hanseatic, Scandinavian, and Russian influences.

   

Caribbean Collection

We have visited the Caribbean five times, including on cruises. Each of the 12 locations we have visited has its own flavour.
