Hello again 🙂 . Last time we walked through the first leg of my trip, a First Class experience from NYC to Frankfurt, Germany. You can read about that in detail here:

Finally, we have arrived 🙂 . We started planning this Australia trip in 2018 – that’s when we started accumulating points and planning our route around Australia and New Zealand.

From the moment we touched down in Montréal, I was in love. Why, you ask? It only took 20 minutes from the moment I set foot in the airport to when I stepped onto the curb to be picked up – and most of that was walking, not waiting. That definitely puts Montréal in the top 3 for the efficient international air travel arrival that I’ve experienced.

I took a weekend trip to Ottawa and decided to take the train back so this is a recap of my first time using a Canadian train company, VIA Rail Canada, on a trip between those two cities. Let’s see what happened! Continue reading “Review: VIA Rail Canada Train – Ottawa to Montréal”
I’ve visited Chicago several times in the past and for some reason never loved it. So when a college friend invited us to a wedding in Chicago, we decided to live there a month to investigate why I didn’t love it in the past, and see if I could change my opinion.
