Honda wants to take you to your happy place in BC, so they’re inviting you to tell everyone about it on Twitter for a chance to win $1,000 to get you there. Post on […]

Presented by Honda: Over the last few years I’ve had the opportunity to drive Honda’s full fleet of vehicles, from the peppy, family-friendly Odyssey to the much-bigger-than-it-seems Honda Fit. With all of my Honda experiences, from Mount St Helens to Sasquatch Park I thought it would be a good time to hear from someone else […]

The Vancouver International Auto Show is coming up March 24th to March 29th, 2015 and Honda Canada wants you to check out the action. On Tuesday, March 24th AJAC will announce their inaugural Green Car of the Year Award and Jack Poole Plaza will host exotics and supercars. Get into an electric vehicle on Wednesday […]

I usually plan a weekend getaway leading up to our wedding anniversary and for #9 this year, I looked east to the Fraser Valley. We’ve always enjoyed our time in Maple Ridge, Chilliwack, Harrison, Agassiz, and beyond, where rushing streams meet pristine lakes, old growth forests cling on mountainsides, and farmers grow a bounty of […]

Honda Canada has been a great supporter of Miss604 over the last few years so when they asked if I would put their new 2015 Honda Fit to the test, with a local adventurer, I was immediately on board. They paired me up with Sarah Shandl of Vancouver We Love You, an adventure group that […]

When John and I have visitors arriving in Vancouver for the first time we try to accomplish two things: Get them out on the water, and get them up on the mountains. From both vantage points you can experience the wild nature of our region while looking out on our City of Glass. https://www.instagram.com/p/k3I224D6MS/ The […]

I’ve partnered with Honda Canada to take their vehicles out for a spin and explore our beautiful region. Most recently, Michelle and I took the Acura RDX to Osoyoos to discover The Cottages on Osoyoos Lake and enjoy the warmth of the South Okanagan in spring. Departing from the West End, I took Highway 1 […]

I’ve partnered with Honda Canada to take their vehicles out for a spin and explore our beautiful region. Most recently John and I took an Odyssey out to Squamish, one of our favourite day trip destinations. Overnight in Squamish We love Vancouver but one of its best qualities is that it’s so easy to escape […]

It’s one of those moments in the life of a Pacific Northwest resident that everyone remembers — where they were, what they heard, what they thought it was. I was only a few months old when Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980 but from 500km away, people (like my mother) recall hearing the […]

Getting over to the Sunshine Coast is so easy, it’s a wonder why we don’t cross over to the other side of the “604” more often. From downtown Vancouver it’s a quick drive up to the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal (where you only pay one-way), about 40 minutes for the crossing of Howe Sound, and […]
