The 5-Reasons to Plan a Winter Escape to Lake Placid
In the middle of the 7 million acres of “forever” wilderness, visitors to New York’s Adirondacks can discover the small town of Lake Placid, New York.

The Five-Arctic Adventures in Churchill Manitoba
I never thought I would visit the edge of the Arctic Circle in the dead of winter. Nope. I never thought I’d brave -40 degree temperature either, but I did. You might too if you had the opportunity to see the Northern Lights in Churchill. Yes, they were amazing. Beyond amazing, but my trip was […]

Yes, Buffalo surprised me during few days first as a volunteer for the New York Special Olympics and […]
