These wraps are a great alternative to tortillas, and they're pretty much just made of vegetables. Vegetables wrapped in vegetables with a little vegetable on top...yum! I actually make the batter in the blender rather than the food processor because there is enough liquid in the zucchini to keep it from getting stuck, and the blender gets rid of all the little spinach bits. Consistency in size is best so they all dry at about the same rate. I like to make them about 6-8 inches in diameter, which sometimes makes it possible to fit 2 on one tray, but
Now I am craving peaches.
A country that long topped my "dream list" of travel destinations, Bhutan is also a country that I didn't know very much about. Despite a few websites and a guidebook in my arsenal, Bhutan seemed draped with mystery even the day before my arrival, when I'd fly over the Himalayas and land in its tiny Paro airport. Because I was visiting in December, I worried that the country would be freezing cold, and I didn't want that to hinder my enjoyment or appreciation of the adventure. When turning to the internet for advice, however, I didn't find much by way of packing tips - "Bring a jacket" one website told me. Another said to "dress appropriately for the weather." Gee, thanks. How helpful. So, without further ado, here's what to wear in Bhutan, from personal experience.

If you've been following my Facebook or my Instagram accounts, you'd know that I'm not hiding the fact that I fell absolutely, head over heels in love with Cinque Terre, Italy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know - I can be quite promiscuous with my travel love. But how can you NOT fall in love with a place that looks like this, especially when the sun is shining and you have a glass of wine in your hand? I'm still going through all of the hundreds of photos I took from my four days there last month, so I'll be posting a photo essay soon, but I wanted to write a post about some of the logistics of getting around Cinque Terre, especially for those who are on a bit of a budget (like I was...er... always am). I had quite a few people write to me to say that they plan on visiting the region this summer, and so hopefully this guide can help, or perhaps it can help inspire you to plan your own trip there. It is one of the most beautiful places in Italy, if not the world, and I truly believe that Cinque Terre can be visited on a budget. Here's how.

Of the countries I've been to, I loved my Indian wardrobe the best. My biggest piece of advice, no matter where you go, is to shop locally. My dream is to one day arrive in a place like Thailand or India with a completely empty backpack and purchase all of my clothing there; not only is it usually much cheaper than clothes in Canada or the UK, but you'll have a lot more fun with your fashion. Here are a few of the things I wore while in India.

This reusable luggage tag is made from a 100% cotton fabric, weighs 10g/.35oz, measures 5.5" x 3" and is attached to the handle of your bag by a 9" matching fabric loop.
