I am the first to admit that I don’t like the cold weather. I have only tried skiing once, when I was 16, and I hated it. I had never tried snowboarding until this past weekend and I must admit again, I really didn’t like it much. So Winter sports were never and still aren’t […]

If you’re like me and travel a lot, then I’m sure you can really appreciate the opportunity to truly relax and pretty much do nothing. I don’t often get a chance to do it but when I do, I jump on it. I recently went to Fiji for my seventh time. I stayed at the […]

Quebec City is a great place in the winter or summer.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) organizations like the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) have taken over the lead in violent mainstream entertainment from sports like Boxing […]
Old Quebec City is a Slice of Europe in Canada
February 4, 2013 by 20 Comments
While St. Pierre and Miquelon is the only part of France left in North America; Quebec City is far and away the most European city in North America.
