The hidden advantage of owning an RV
This blog post could probably be titled – How an RV can help you while looking at starting a new job or moving. Let me tell you why… A few months ago, my husband got a contract at a business in the Toronto area. The RV was a blessing since we were able to packed it up and move temporarily for the duration of that contract. It was also a blessing that we were homeschooling our kids... [Read more]
Book Review – Hidden Magic of Walt Disney World
When you travel with your RV, you sometimes plan where you will end up. And one of the places we would love to bring our children is definitively Walt Disney World. My husband and I dream of the day where we can surprise the kids with an extended trip to Florida and explorations to places like Walt Disney World. I wish I would know when this could happen. I am hoping in a near future. ... [Read more]
Technology while RVing – iPhone Edition
Last week, I shared some of the advantages of having an iPad with you while traveling in an RV.

MUSIC Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. ~Victor Hugo Music has been part of the human life for hundreds of years. ... [Read more]
Technology while RVing – iPad edition
Since my husband gave me an iPad about two years ago, I have seen changes in how I pack for a trip. How so?

Books The main issue before was the number of books I would bring with me. I will admit that I am a bookworm.... [Read more]
Bittersweet Moment
This past week-end, my six year old son Jérémy came to me while I was working in my office to ask me a question… Mommy, when are we going to go to the RV? I lift my eyes on what I was doing and saw him standing near the entrance of my office at home, looking at me with his big hazel eyes. I couldn’t believe my ears. You’ve got to be kidding me right? No he was very serious with his... [Read more]

Canadian Museum of Nature
Back on July 1st, we decided to take advantage of the fact that museums in our former hometown were open for free. To celebrate Canada Day we decided to visit the Canadian Museum of Nature which has been revamped in recent years. I hadn’t set foot in that museum for over 15 years – not even it got reopened after the major renovations a couple of years ago. Knowing that we would be moving... [Read more]
Summer 2012 – A New Life For Our Family
Okay I will admit it – I am a bit quiet this year. But when I tell you why this is the case, I think that you will understand that I have quite a bit on my shoulders since May. The situation In May my husband had a contract with a company in the area of Whitchurch-Stouffville in Ontario. Being homeschoolers, we packed the RV and drove as a family for a full month in that area. What we didn’t... [Read more]
