Canada: A Glimpse of The Adventures Ahead!

By the time you read this, I’ll be whizzing above the oceans on my Air Canada / Lufthansa flight. If Canadian Tourism Commission’s plan for us is anything to go by, it’s going to be one epic travel + blogging adventure! Unlike most other press trips I’ve been on, I love the amount of free and easy time we have on this trip to explore Canada on our own. As always, I’ve made no firm plans, and will be seeking suggestions from the locals I meet. A big thank you to those of you who’ve been kind enough to recommend hangouts and eateries, or offered to show me around! Shivya NathWelcome to my blog, The Shooting Star. I’ve been called a storyteller, writer, photographer, digital nomad, “sustainability influencer,” social entrepreneur, solo traveller, vegan, sustainable tourism consultant and environmentalist. But in my heart, I’m just a girl who believes that travel – if done right – has the power to change us and the world we live in.

I’m Going to Canada!

You heard that right. I’m one of 28 international bloggers to beΒ invited by the Canadian Tourism Commission this May, for what soundsΒ like an incredible trip to explore the maple leaf country. I’m goingΒ to be the only travel blogger from India, so that’s a littleΒ overwhelming! This 15-day trip will start in Vancouver, often ranked among the best cities to live in. From there, we’ll board the VIA RailΒ to the mountain town of Jasper, and to Winnipeg in the Canadian Prairies. The trip will end in Toronto, whereΒ we’ll be part of TBEX, the greatest international travel bloggingΒ conference. Seeing another one of my travel bucket list items turn to realityΒ is unbelievably exciting! Shivya NathWelcome to my blog, The Shooting Star.
