Since I was a kid, Ma-Me-O Beach has been my favourite place to vacay over the summer. The quiet strip of cabins and beautiful beach easily makes this place my summer haven. The Village, which is only minutes away from the beach is the perfect spot for…

Drumheller – the desert surrounded by prairies! And a must-see place to visit this summer! It has been my goal since a young age to see the world and experience all it has to offer. But sometimes, it’s just as amazing to explore the world that is right around the corner…
