Bonjour! I'm Marie...

... your friendly French-Canadian adventurer, currently calling Ontario, home sweet home. Armed with my trusty camera, I'm on a quest to capture the wonders of the world through nature and adventure photography. Who needs a sidekick when you've got wanderlust and a camera?

My mission? To show fellow adventurers, especially my fellow ladies, that solo travel isn't just possible – it's downright exhilarating!
So, buckle up and join me on this wild ride as I navigate the globe one solo adventure at a time. Because let's face it, waiting around for someone else's schedule is so last season.

I knew I was going to love this cabin… but I wasn’t ready for that lake view.

Smiths Falls is officially one of the most underrated day trips in Ontario, and I can’t believe no one told me sooner.

Cute downtown? Check. Water views? Check. A dentist train car you didn’t know you needed to see? Weirdly… also check.

If you’re looking for a chill little day trip with just the right mix of outdoors, food, and quirky history, here’s exactly how I’d spend the day:

🛶 Start with a paddle through The Swale and pass under the old bascule train bridge
🥪 Grab a sandwich at The Pickled Pig (get the Pickled Pig sandwich!)
🥐 Pick up something sweet at C’est Tout Bakery
🚤 Bring your lunch to the Rideau Canal locks for an easy picnic by the water
🚂 Visit the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario (the train cars are wild, including a dentist train that now lives rent-free in my head)
☕ Wander downtown and grab an iced coffee from The Sweet Scoops Lighthouse Café before heading home

It’s walkable, it’s peaceful, and it’s full of surprises. Save this for your next sunny Saturday and thank me later.

Summer in Ontario means one thing: Prince Edward County.

The moment the weather hits 25°, I’m mentally halfway to the beach with a bag of roadside strawberries in the passenger seat.

There’s just something about PEC in the summe… those wide-open roads, sun-bleached grass, swimsuits drying on a fence post, and a slow buzz of “do whatever you want” in the air.

You spend the day chasing swims, tasting wine like you know what you’re doing, and wandering into tiny farm stands just because the sign looked cute. By golden hour, you’re barefoot, slightly sunburned, and wondering if it’s too soon to come back. (Spoiler: it’s not.)

If you’re dreaming of that windows-down, toes-in-the-lake, wine-in-a-mason-jar kind of weekend—start here.

📍Prince Edward County, Ontario
💾 Save this for when you’re ready to romanticize your own summer

Here are 7 places in Jasper that live in my head rent-free… and honestly, I think they’ll move into yours too.

1. Athabasca Falls – powerful, dramatic, and SO loud in the best way
2. Old Fort Point – a short climb with one of the best panoramic views in the park
3. Maligne Lake – classic Jasper beauty, especially right before sunset.
4. Medicine Lake – surreal, calm, and shaped by underground rivers
5. Downtown Jasper – cozy, local, and full of post-hike treats
6. Sunwapta Falls – don’t stop at the first viewpoint, go down to the lower falls
7. Pyramid Lake – the most gorgeous mountain views. 

📍Don’t forget to save this for later
