    4 Day Niagara Falls and Toronto Canada Itinerary

    If you are going to Niagara Falls, the more 'fun' side is the Canadian side. There's so many places to see and do in the Canada side, but after a while the falls can get boring. Two whole days is enough in Niagara Falls if you want to see both the American and the Canadian side. Other people just do this on a day trip, so it is perfect if you are looking for a quick weekend destination. Toronto is just 1 1/2 hours drive away from Niagara Falls, and Buffalo is 20-30 minutes away from the US side. And so, we also provide more tips on where to go…

    Janesville Shopping: 10 Distinctive and Unique Shops to Visit

    There are so many artsy and unique places to shop in Janesville. Some of the coolest shops are directly located in the downtown area. Some travel to find shops they would never find back home, and Janesville is an underrated shopping mecca in Wisconsin. If only I had a lot more luggage space to bring my stuff home, I would have gotten a lot more things! My bank account is thanking the airlines who have put luggage limits. Janesville has the usual chain stores you may have at home so might want to look and pop by as well ‘for the thrill of the hunt’. However, for the purposes of…

    6 Best Things to do in Irving, TX for a day

    I had no idea that Irving TX is its own city. It was the host city for Southern Travelers Explore, and since it was fairly easy to get to from Dallas, I thought why not? It is a city on its own, with fairly new structures, and is still growing. The convention center in itself is beautiful (and huge), with new and unique hotels popping up all over the place. Here’s a list of things to do in Irving, TX for a day, so you can put the city on your watch list of what to do when you are in the area.  Thank you to Visit Irving for hosting…
