Montreal is one of our favourite cities, but after a lapse in visits over recent years, both Ewan and I were a bit worried that the ‘je ne sais quoi’ charm we loved would be somehow missing when we planned a jaunt there over the May long weekend. Well, our worries were unfounded. Montreal proved…
Hi!! So…it’s been a while since our last post. We haven’t fallen off the face of the earth, nor have we been on any fantastical escapades. A legitimate excuse (combined with a bit of laziness) was to blame for the radio silence: the 2015 Pan Am Games. The Pan Am games are held every four…
The AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) is a fantastic museum right in the heart of Toronto. Not only do they have a decent collection, but they bring in exciting exhibitions (we’ve checked out ‘David Bowie is’ and ‘Frida & Diego: Passion, Politics and Painting’). My aunt gifted us with a year membership to the AGO…
Having been back about a month from our trip one thing I find myself missing is exploring new cities and discovering great street art. Since the year is coming to an end I thought it would be a fitting time to do a quick photo review. Here are some of my favourite pieces we happened…
I still can’t believe we’re in Turkey! It was so nice to spend a week in Istanbul, especially after hopping around recently. Slow travel is now our mantra and when we pick things up a bit, we tend to get a little lathered up. But then again…it was entirely cloudless and unrelentingly hot in Istanbul.…
Budapest is the capital of Hungary and a city very easy to fall in love with. The name comes from melding two former cities, Buda and Pest, which were united in 1873. Buda is on the west side of the Danube River, and what we’ll be focusing on in this post. (note: I can’t say…
It feels like we have done an endless amount of posts on Paris, but here’s another photo-heavy one (we can’t help it – we love that city so much and we were there for three weeks!). This will be the last one for a while – I promise!
Hello people. After documenting a small portion of the graffiti and street art in Toronto, Bogota, Valparaiso, and Buenos Aires, it was inevitable that I would pick out my favourite shots from Paris. We spent about three weeks in ‘La Ville-Lumiere’ providing many pictures of great street art. Perhaps my favourite recurring artist is Invader, he…
Hello people, this is Ewan here for another graffiti post. You may have noticed some of our previous posts have a shot or two of the street art we come across, and I’ve posted before on the works we’ve seen in Toronto, Bogota and Valparaiso. I really appreciate discovering creative artwork in perhaps unlikely locals.…
Buenos Aires seemed like that unreachable far away destination…not only by distance when we left Toronto and started our trip, but also because we knew it would be the last place we’d see in South America before moving on. It was months away and seemed to be a faint dream that would always be in…
