    I’m going to Iceland by myself in April for 5 days! Very excited!! I also booked through Arctic Adventures to go to the Glacier Hike. I read that you rented the gear from them directly, did you find it was worth it to rent from them? I just have winter boots (I live in Toronto) They are waterproof, and good to -40C. They have grip but nothing like an icepick kind of grip. My winter jacket isn’t water proof but definitely warm enough. I don’t have waterproof pants at all though. What would you suggest?

    • Hi Angelica! The tour company provided waterproof jackets and pants, however you’ll want to wear warm layers under, and you’ll have to wear your own hiking boots. The company should provide clamps for your shoes 🙂

      • On average, how much would you say one could spend in Iceland without airfare?

        • Depending on what you’re looking to do and where you are planning on staying in Iceland, I would budget anywhere from $50-180 a day. You can check out some of my articles on Iceland to get an idea of things to do/places to stay to help create your budget! There are always different tricks to make things less expensive.

From toddler to big boy, this year’s birthday gift called for something a little extra special. Something that builds confidence and a love for adventure. 

That’s why I went with the EZ Bike from @royalbabybikes. 🚲
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It’s designed to help little ones learn real balance with their “slide before ride” philosophy.

@royalbabybikes believes training wheels inhibit kids from learning real balance, creating a false sense of mastery whereas the EZ Bike helps kids learn proper balance faster. It starts as a balance bike so kids build confidence without relying on training wheels, and with the quick-release crank, it easily transforms into a pedal bike when they’re ready!

@royalbabybikes’ slogan “Once a RoyalRider, always a Loyal Rider” means their mission is all about inspiring kids to embrace biking and enjoy the outdoors from a young age. They’ve been Amazon’s top-selling kids’ bike brand for years, with award-winning designs built on research and development, it’s lightweight, easy to ride, and actually fun for kids to use.

Ollie was absolutely in love with his birthday gift and was off exploring within minutes — safe to say we’re officially along for the ride!

Diving in one of the most magical underwater landscapes on earth… The Maldives!

This year, we officially launched our newest @tbaescapes all-female trip and it was pure paradise.

We set sail on a luxury yacht, explored vibrant reefs, had night dives with manta rays, and even landed on our own private beaches. Absolute heaven!

Getting scuba-certified is still one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever given myself. I’m endlessly grateful to keep using it to explore the world’s oceans, spot breathtaking marine life, and make lifelong friends along the way. 💙
