Happy first day of fall!! Although I love summer

Happy first day of fall!!

Although I love summer the most, fall in Nova Scotia is pretty awesome. It’s harvest season, there are a bunch of festivals, pumpkins, scarecrows, and plaid shirts everywhere. From the Annapolis Valley to the south shore there are tons of great things to get out and see, do and eat! Enjoy pumpkin spice everything, get lost in a corn maze, and celebrate the season!

Whale Watching in Nova Scotia is a popular activit

Whale Watching in Nova Scotia is a popular activity to do all around the province throughout the summer and early fall.

Whether it’s a sunny day, foggy or even raining they can almost always be found. Popular spots for whale watching in Nova Scotia include Cheticamp, Pleasant Bay and Englishtown in Cape Breton, and Lunenburg on the South Shore. However the number one spot for whale watching and where you will have the most luck finding them is from Brier Island, NS or close to it.

Situated near the mouth of the Bay of Fundy is Brier Island where many humpbacks and other whales visit to feed every summer. The whales tend to arrive in June and stay into October. There are several whale watching tours that depart from the Brier Island area. No matter which you choose they all speak with each other when it comes to tracking and finding the whales.

Most recently I took a tour with @mariner_cruises and even though we were shrouded in fog we found at least 3 gorgeous whales that put on a little show for us. The crew were great and so informative too! I highly recommend you go whale watching with them!

Is this the BEST Geodesic Glamping Dome in all of

Is this the BEST Geodesic Glamping Dome in all of Nova Scotia?!?!

Over the past couple of years I have prided myself in becoming somewhat of an expert on Glamping in Nova Scotia and staying at some of the most spectacular accommodations. Last week I stayed at one of the newest @cozy_point_retreat in Church Point, Nova Scotia located just outside of Saulnierville, NS.

Opened in July 2023 the Cozy Point Retreat dome has everything you could want while glamping and then some. The owners have truly thought of everything. The dome features two king sized beds, a bbq, pizza oven and flattop grill, a bathroom with shower and bidet, a hot-tub and rain water feature, kayaks, a SUP, and canoe too. There are games to play, places to lounge, a yoga platform, privacy screens by the hot tub and so much more.

They are also only a quick 15min drive to @leptitrobicheau and @cuisinerobicheau my favourites!!

The Cozy Point Retreat is closed from Dec to March so book a fall stay now or start planning your spring and summer travels!

Find them on Airbnb by searching for Church Point, NS or DM me for the link!

The fall in Nova Scotia is one of the BEST times o

The fall in Nova Scotia is one of the BEST times of year to go on a wine tour! The vines are lush and full with bursting grapes, harvest season is beginning, the weather is lovely!

Nova Scotia has more than 14 winery’s now and even more vineyards with the majority of them being in the Annapolis Valley area around Wolfville. Most of them have tasting rooms and cellar doors for you to visit where you can buy their wine, try a flight or do a tasting. Some also have restaurants or offer charcuterie as well.

The most responsible way to visit them however is on a tour with a driver and extremely knowledgeable guide!

If you want a private tour for you and a friend or a few of you check out @vintagevinowinetours. They drive you around in their vintage car and offer an excellent tour. They also off a @novascotiaexplorer specific tour that I curated myself with the owner and guide Brennan!

If you want a cheaper option or have a bigger group check out one of the public wine tours by bus. @nswinetours offer tours that start and end in Halifax and take you to the valley for a fun day of wine and tasty food. To get 10% off with them use code: NSExplorer when booking!

No matter if you enjoy Nova Scotian wine on your own or by your you are sure to have a great time! I definitely recommend you try a Tidal Bay, Nova Scotia’s appellation wine! Visit @winesofns to learn more! ❤️🍷

How do you stay connected when you travel? Summer

How do you stay connected when you travel?

Summer is coming to an end but fall and winter travels are coming soon! How do you stay connected when you are on the road?

Obviously while traveling within Canada with a Canadian mobile plan I’m covered and my phone works everywhere. But when I head to the US, Europe and elsewhere that’s a different story. I used to buy local SIM cards when I travelled or tried to live off jumping from wifi to wifi instead of paying for roaming fees.

Now thanks to new technology (woo!) I’ve started using e-sims on my travels. This year I’ve been to Alaska, the east coast of the US and Prague where I was instantly connected the minute I arrived because of the esims.

I’ve been using and working with @alosim_app a Canadian based esim company that has affordable esims working for countries all around the world. Their app is available in all app stores around the world so everyone can use them in close to every country around the world.

How do esims work? First you need to make sure your phone is compatible. Most phones from the past couple years should be. Next you download the app then digitally install the esim for the country you are visiting. No more physically inserting different SIM cards, just download and go. Then add the credit amount you want and activate it on wifi just before you arrive or after. Then you hit the ground running in your new destination ready to go!

The esims give you data but not calling. Either use calling functions from your home provider or use apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, etc.

The best part about the esims is that they can be so cheap! Starting around $5 for 1gb to $26 for 10gb that will last you a whole month! If you run out you can top up at any time.

Nova Scotia is known for having 13,000kms of coast

Nova Scotia is known for having 13,000kms of coastline! It also has a TON of lakes, streams, rivers, ponds, brooks, and of course that means LOTS of waterfalls!

The end of summer and beginning of fall is an ideal time for hiking in Nova Scotia and searching for these natural wonders of beauty! We have also had more than enough rain this summer so they are really flowing!!

Many waterfalls in the province will come up on google maps however know that they aren’t all easy to get too. Also not all waterfalls are open to the public! Do your research before you go and try to stick to finding some of the easier and legal to get to waterfalls 😂

Waterfalls featured in this reel include: Mill Falls at Kejimkujik, Beulach Ban Falls and Still Brook Falls on the Cabot Trail, and Joe Howe Falls and Waddel Falls in Victoria Park in Truro. All of these waterfalls are super easy and safe to get to.

Where is your favourite Nova Scotian waterfall?!?!
