I’ll admit it: I used to be a bit of a camping snob. If it didn’t come with a plug-in, a pool, or some sort of gourmet s’mores bar, I wasn’t interested. But after visiting a few of Ontario’s provincial parks on a solo RV adventure, I’ve officially been converted. These parks do more than …
My first trip to Paris was not only memorable, but reminded me that all travel advice should be taken with a grain of salt. For years, I had heard that Parisians were snobby, a little rude, and hard to get along with. I admit, Paris didn’t hit the top of my travel list for these …
