A Morning Adventure in Deep Cove, North Vancouver: Hiking, Coffee, & Views!
Deep Cove in North Vancouver is one of my favorite places to hang out when looking for somewhere different yet serene.
Deep Cove is a small, picturesque village located at the eastern edge of North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It sits on the shores of Indian Arm, a fjord that stretches north from Burrard Inlet, surrounded by lush forests and mountains.
Just a 30-minute drive from downtown Vancouver, Deep Cove offers a peaceful escape from the city, known for its waterfront views, outdoor activities like kayaking, paddleboarding, and hiking, and access to trails like the popular Quarry Rock hike.
48 Hours in Washington, DC: National Monuments & Mount Vernon Adventure
Washington, DC, has always been on my hitlist of places to visit in the USA.
When I was a young kid watching the news, I always saw videos and photos of the iconic landmarks in this city, such as the National Mall, Lincoln’s Statue, the White House, and Capitol Hill.
Finally, I managed to visit, and this blog combines two visits over two days a year apart, aided by my friends Adam and Stephanie from Road Unraveled.
In this blog, I'm taking you on a weekend trip through the heart of American history—Washington, DC!
Thamel, Kathmandu: My Ultimate Travel Guide to the Heart of Nepal
It is no secret that Nepal is one of my favourite destinations on the planet, and you can see why by seeing the awe-struck Annapurna at Poon Hill to trekking the Langtang Valley and exploring the winding alleys of Thamel or soaking in the spiritual energy at Swayambhunath, this place has everything.
Traditionally, in my YouTube videos, I showcase the best of a place I have visited with videos and photos. However, weirdly, I do not have enough content to make a great video of Thamel or Kathmandu as a whole, but I have tons of content to share in written form.
I stayed in Thamel, Kathmandu, for a combined five weeks during two visits in 2018 and 2023, so I know the area well and have some cool spots for you to check out.
In this blog, I want to cover my favourite restaurants, cafes, sights, and accommodations in Thamel, Kathmandu.
Walking Vancouver's Iconic 28km Seawall in One Day
The Vancouver Seawall is a scenic, uninterrupted pathway that runs along Vancouver's waterfront, offering stunning views and a great way to explore the city's natural beauty.
The route is flat and easy in terms of trajectory but hard in terms of distance.
Starting from Spanish Banks and ending at the Vancouver Convention Center, the Seawall covers approximately 28 kilometers.
We completed the Seawall in reverse to finish the last leg in Downtown at the end of the hike. I predicted that we would walk more than 28 km, and I would be knackered at the highest level.
I was proven right, which you see more of in the video below.
Why one day?
We fancied a challenge, and as the route is flat, I am pretty confident we could complete it without problems.
This wasn’t a race; we stopped off for brunch and checked out a few trendy cafes for coffee.
I outline key points of interest along the walk to give you the whole experience of walking the Seawall and perhaps encourage you to see a part of it when you next visit Vancouver.
Let’s dive into some details below.
