Canada

Geographically, Canada is the second-largest country in the world, behind only Russia. While its territory is huge, the vast majority of it is very scarcely populated due to its proximity to the arctic circle. In fact, more than 90% of Canadians live within 150 miles of the border with the United States! Canada is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, and its scarce population has helped to keep some of its most beautiful places uncorrupted. From gorgeous cities like Montreal and Toronto to stunning mountain getaways like Banff, Canada could keep any nature lover content for a lifetime.

This is not just a toddler tip, it’s an adult ha This is not just a toddler tip, it’s an adult hack too.
.
This was the final stretch of our longgggggg day exploring four French villages. Yup, you heard me. FOUR villages in under 6 hours. 
.
We’re exhausted, dehydrated, melting in the French sun, and on the brink of snapping…..

🕰️Looks like it’s merenda o’clock!! 🍑🍊

A ‘merenda’ is a snack that Italians take in the afternoon. We take one every day- especially while on a trip!! 
.
So we stripped down as not to stain any clothes, pulled out our oranges, and voilá that blood sugar reset gave us the final energy boost to enjoy the beautiful village of Rousillon 😉
.
So next time you’re about to have a meltdown, choose a merenda instead 😉

Do European kids just play with the bidet all day? Do European kids just play with the bidet all day??? Serious question. An accessible shower head is like a toddler’s dream come true. All he wants to do is play with the toilet 😭😂🇫🇷

Tag your France loving bestie 🥰 this market is Tag your France loving bestie 🥰 this market is year round on Wednesdays and Saturdays in Arles (our favorite city in France❤️). 

Stalls are open from 08:00 to 12:45 and they sell everything you could possibly imagine. It was the largest farmer’s market we have ever attended 🤯

BONUS: Ride the whimsical carousel hidden right behind the market. It was painted by Van Gogh!! 🎨

One more monkey added to the mix 🐒🐒 the seco One more monkey added to the mix 🐒🐒 the second photo is one of my favorites of just us and Nicola in Capri. So when we hopped on this boat in *Cassis* I knew I had to recreate it 💙 

And just look at how it turned out! 🥹

And you can even ride it 😱😱 Our two year old And you can even ride it 😱😱 Our two year old was already begging to go for a ride, and after a local whispered us this secret we couldn’t say no. 
.
.
Even though it’s peak tourist season, Nicola was the only child we saw riding it the whole time we stayed in Arles. 🎠
.
.
Afterwards I googled it and found nothing confirming or denying this claim….we were either lied to (unlikely) or this is one of the best kept secrets of Arles. 🤫🤫
.

What do you think? 🤔 the landscapes have Van Gogh written all over it imo
