posted on from departure terminal, Porter's Toronto Island Airport

Sitting here with my complimentary americano, bottle of water and shortbread cookies as I wait to board my flight to Newark, NJ from Toronto.  Oh, and typing this on one of the 4 free-to-use iMacs (as opposed to lounging in the big comfy chairs in what could double as somebody's...

Pinery Provincial Park, Ontario

posted on from Toronto

For as long as I can remember I've been going camping to the Pinery during the first weekend in August.  As a kid we'd pack the car in the middle of the night and be on the road before dawn, on our way to meet the rest of the group for breakfast before fully embarking. My parents had...

Day 2: Thank you sir, may I have another? A morning full of hard drink and caribbean cuisine, you'd think, would torment even the heartiest of Canadian stomachs... but a pedestrian I am not.  After just one day I clearly wasn't ready to surrender to the lethal mix of island living,...

Tales from T+T: Part 1

Some people think holidays are supposed to be periods of relaxation and pure decadence, lounging by a pool sipping singapore slings with your only worry being which all-included drink you want next - some people think holidays are supposed to be rugged adventures in the bush, living day-by-day...

Off to Trinidad+Tobago!

posted on from Toronto

When thinking about what to say for the first official TripAtlas blog post, I thought it would only be fitting to make it a true Trip Blog and let everybody know that I'm leaving for Trinidad & Tobago tomorrow. I don't know what the chances are of updating this while on holiday, but if I do...
