Every city has hidden treasures that only the locals are privy to… so whenever I travel, I like to ask these connoisseurs about their favorite spots and how to best navigate their city. When I had the brilliant idea of exploring Paris last summer, I immediately started reaching out to close friends for exciting tips.  

Paris is the most visited place in the world, so it's no surprise that a few thousand city guides have been written about the “city of lights" and romance. While these books can be both helpful and inspiring, I knew that my friend Laura would give me the insider flare I was seeking. If you are planning a Parisian getaway, enjoy the cities best kept secrets! 

There’s an incredible feeling that rushes over me every time I walk into a hotel. Having all these beautiful amenities under one roof with the adventure of travelling can only result in total bliss. When I heard about the revamp at the W Hotel here in Montreal, I couldn’t wait to explore the glamorous new suites.

Every time I spot a scooter on the road, I’m flooded with memories of my European adventures. With my hair blowing in the wind, I would hold onto my husband as we cruised along the Amalfi Coast. You can imagine my delight when Kumpan electric started to spread the revolution in Montreal.
