Did you know there are, not one, not two, but three lavender fields near Montreal!? Now you don’t have to plan a trip to the South of France to get a taste of the beautiful purple fields… although, who’s ever complaining about visiting the South of France!?

Les Chutes de Plaisance is part of the Plaisance national park in Quebec and it’s a historical site. It makes a wonderful day trip to nature. It’s also the perfect excursion if you’re staying at the Chateau Montebello for the weekend.
Tremblant is the perfect summer escape from Montreal. The main attraction here is the ski hill in the winter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t visit in the summer months. This was my family’s go to spot for summer vacations for years!
A true Montrealer is its own unique breed; different from Canadians and Quebecois. But don’t worry we still religiously say ‘sorry’ and ‘eh?’. So, if you’re thinking about visiting the city, or maybe even moving, here’s everything you need to know to fit in.

Long Beach might not be first on your California bucket list, but it’s still worth a visit. At first glance, there might not seem like there’s much to do, but I’m here to prove you wrong! Here’s my guide for how to make the most of your time if you find yourself in Long Beach, California.
If you’re heading to Las Vegas from SoCal, make it a road trip and take the scenic route through the Mojave Desert.
I was coming from Long Beach California, so the drive is about 4 and a half hours (without any stops). But to break up the drive, here are a few stops I found along the way that I’d recommend stopping at.
