The Outdoor Adventure & Travel Show: COME OUT AND PLAY!
So I spent last weekend at the Outdoor Adventure & Travel Show, thanks to the organization who invited me to be an official blogger for the event! I had a GREAT time. From the numerous (over 200 !) exhibitors to the Paddlers’ Paradise pool, there was so much to see! Now I want to start all sorts of new activities and hike all over… ►►►

A Weekend at the 2017 National Women’s Show in Montreal
You probably already noticed that until mid-March, I had the “Official Blogger” badge of the National Women’s Show on the blog for a few weeks. The event took place last weekend (March 17-18-19, 2017) at the Palais des Congrès, downtown Montreal, and I was there, thanks to my friend Clorissa who tagged me in their Facebook post saying they were looking for bloggers to join their blogging team! ►►►
