Lima City Tour
Considering how much we've been devouring Peruvian cuisine you might think we've intentionally been avoiding touring much of Lima itself. Nothing could be further from the truth. The reality of our situation - completing a school practicum and visiting family - has meant we've had less time to travel than we normally do when visiting a city/country.
Anyhow, when we had a few days off from school we were finally thrilled to get a chance to venture off from Miraflores and visit more of the traditional areas of the city. Joining Audrey's parents who visited us from Canada, we decided on Panoramic tour bus tour.

Eating Biltong taste test in South Africa
When visiting a new country there are always 'must have' foods worth trying. In South Africa one of these items is Biltong. Most similar to 'beef jerky' it has a special curing and processing that sets it apart from other forms of dried meat. Come find out if we enjoyed it (or not) as we munch away piece by piece from a brown paper bag outside.

On a quest to indulge our sweet tooth, we walked a short distance from our apartment in Lima, Peru to visit Manolo for churros. Coming highly recommended from Audrey´s relatives we had high expectations prior to arriving. Once inside, we decided on a lethal trio of vanilla, chocolate and dulce de leche to go. They were all delicious; however, the dulce de leche ones were simply irresistible. I could have easily bought another 10 just for myself with the intention of drifting off into a diabetic coma. These churro were a notch above any other I´ve had outside of Argentina. The bar has been raised and I´ll have discerning taste buds for ´just r

The market, located on Petit Thors Avenue, is series of several warehouses with individual shops selling all kinds of different trinkets available for purchase. Wandering through the various aisles, one can't help but notice that many of the items for sale are the same from one store to the next. What can you find in this market? Just about everything.

12 THINGS TO DO IN HELSINKI | Guide to Finland's Capital
Heading back to Finland - and specifically Helsinki - was our greatest surprise this summer. As the capital city, it has the attractions any big city offers, yet it somehow retains plenty of small town charm. One of the main reasons is that you're never far from nature. Hop on a bicycle or kayak and you within a few kilometers you'll feel as though you're all alone at one with nature.
We've created this travel guide highlighting all of the top things to do in Finland with a specific emphasis on the city of Helsinki. From Finnish culture to Finnish Food an from Finnish Cuisine to other tourism fun related activities you'll find both the bes

With our time extremely limited in Cape Town, we decided to take a Cape Point Peninsula tour to cover as many of the main scenic attractions in the surrounding area as we possibly could. Our hectic day included visiting Seal Island, Boulders Penguin Colony, and the Cape of Good Hope doing boat tours, hiking and biking. We spotted wild Ostriches and Baboons. At one point we spotted a baboon on top of a car with the lady inside freaking out. To say the day was eventful would be an understatement; however, the one wrinkle was that the weather was quite crappy. I really wish we could have done this tour on a nicer day.

Audrey and I both grew up in rural settings with backyards that led down paths covered with forest and dotted by mountains. We're finding now, as we get a little bit older, that we're thoroughly enjoying visiting places that remind us of our roots. While traveling along the coast of South Africa we encountered such a destination named Wilderness. As the name suggests outdoor adventures are what you come here to experience. After doing a bit of research we settled on canoeing and hiking. The following is our journey for the day.

Our Wedding: Samuel & Audrey tie the knot
Over the past couple of years, since we launched our travel video channel, we've been blown away by the support you have all offered us. Normally, we've rather reserved when it comes to sharing intimate details of our private life; however, we feel in many ways as though you're extended family and with that in mind we're sharing some of our favorite wedding photos from this past summer.
Samuel & Audrey's Wedding video transcript:
So six months ago this handsome specimen and I tied the knot. Oh my gosh, what was I thinking. No, just kidding. It was probably the best decision of my entire life. And what we wanted to do is share our wedding photos with you. We've really appreciated all of the support you've offered us through all of our travel videos. And normally we're quite private people but we wanted to share this with you. It has just been an honor.
Yeah, we actually meant to do this after the wedding but we kind of forgot, so we figured 6 months worth celebrating we'll put it out there now. We've been lazy, what can we say. Enjoy.
Now a peck on the cheek.

Getting to know Samuel and Audrey: frequently asked questions about travel & life
We've really appreciated all of the support with our Youtube travel channel & videos over the past two years. Along the way we've been asked a lot of questions in the comments section. For the first time we sit down to answer some of the most popular and commonly occurring questions related to our travels and personal life:
How can you afford to travel?
We've earned money teaching English in South Korea and we've also done freelance travel writing. In addition we earn money through our travel blogs http://nomadicsamuel.com and http://thatbackpacker.com
What's it like teaching English in Korea?
Overall, it was a a great experience. This is where we met each other in person after knowing one another online through our travel blogs. It was trial be error as we were just thrown into the Korean classroom without any on the job training. However, we got the handle of it quickly and as long as you enjoying teaching children it is something we can recommend to try.
You eat a lot of street food. Have you ever had food poisoning?
Indeed, we have! Personally, I've been sick in India, Thailand, Malaysia, Bolivia and Cuba just to name a few places. Oddly enough, we've never got sick from eating street food. It has always been from food we got at a restaurant. As a common sense guide, we recommend you eat at street food stalls where the vendor is cooking with high levels of hygiene and where it is busy with lots of locals lined up waiting to be served.
Do you ever get tired of traveling? What are some cities where you could see yourself settling down? What are your favorite travel destinations?
We've experienced burning out on the road several times. When we get sick of travel we've settled down in Chiang Mai and Berlin for a while. Some of our favorite countries include Jordan, Germany, Finland, Vietnam, Turkey and India.
How did you two meet?
We knew each other through our travel sites, met in person in Korea while teaching English, traveled the world together and recently got married this summer.
What is your biggest travel mishap?
We're constantly screwing up on the road; however, our biggest mishap by far was having our train derail en route from Bangkok to Chiang Mia while living in Thailand. Other than that we've had our shorts split in half, lost our wallets and many other kinds of things.
Please let us know if you have any more questions for us! Anything at all. It can be related to travel, life or just a comment about how weird we are ;)

Lima City Tour
Considering how much we've been devouring Peruvian cuisine you might think we've intentionally been avoiding touring much of Lima itself. Nothing could be further from the truth. The reality of our situation - completing a school practicum and visiting family - has meant we've had less time to travel than we normally do when visiting a city/country.
Anyhow, when we had a few days off from school we were finally thrilled to get a chance to venture off from Miraflores and visit more of the traditional areas of the city. Joining Audrey's parents who visited us from Canada, we decided on Panoramic tour bus tour.
Departing from Kennedy Park the highlights were downtown colonial and Republic architecture including Plaza de Armas, Plaza San Martín, the Plaza of Congress, the “Parque de la Reserva”, the National Library and the station of 'Desamparados.' The guided portion of our tour allowed us to explore Monastery of San Francisco (Convento de San Francisco) with a tour of the catacombs. Unfortunately, we weren't able to take photos/video though.
Overall, it was a great way to see Lima - especially for those without a lot of days/time to spare. We ended up taking a Mirabus tour. The following is the necessary information:
Departs: Parque Kennedy
Daily: 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.
The tour lasts 3.5 hours
Adults: S /. 70.00
Kids (from 4 to 10 years): S /. 50.00
Kennedy Park (departs) – Miraflores (ends).
Lima City Tour Travel Video Transcript:
Coming in live from Parque Kennedy this is Gaucho Gringo Samuel. And before we start our tour of showing you all around Lima we're going to explore this park which is nearby our house.
Meow. Meow. Meow.
So this afternoon we're taking a tour with Mirabus and it is basically a bus tour around the city. It is not hop on, hop off style which means we won't get to you know get off and explore the places we're interested in. But we do get an overview of the city and right now we are visiting a beautiful Convent and Monastery.
Considering how many food videos we've been making since we've been in Lima it is kind of crazy we haven't gone out to explore and check out the city. Part of that is because of course we've been doing our teaching practicum and also we've been visiting family. But the other part is we've been eating so much and taking too many Siestas. So we've finally outside and we're excited to show you around Lima.
It is ridiculously hot and humid out here, so I'm trying my best to cool off with a local frozen popsicle here Maracuyá. And it is sweet and a little bit sour and tangy.
Eating ice cream in church, I'm pretty sure that is not allowed.
What can I say, I'm a bad boy.

Most journeys begin at Penn Station or Grand Central, and if you arrive at the later you'll be wowed by the building. The Meatpacking District was once home to markets, slaughterhouses, and packaging plants, but times have changed. Today you'll find a mixture of trendy restaurants, clubs and boutiques. The Village used to be a bohemian neighborhood that drew artists and musicians, but today you're more likely to find upper middle class families living here.

University students and young professionals have been flocking to this part of town.
You can walk along the riverfront for a great view of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and the Manhattan skyline. During the summer months, Bryant Park also becomes a popular hangout spot people looking to relax and even work on their tans. The Staten Island Ferry is free of charge and this makes it really popular with visitors who want to catch a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty from a distance. Battery Park is located on the southern tip of Manhattan. Having both lived in South Korea, we were thrilled to come across Manhattan's own Little Korea. Coney Island is all about good old fashioned fun. You can ride roller coasters, stroll down the boardwalk, enjoy some beach time, and then head over the Nathan's Famous hot dogs. The Cloisters will make you feel like you've travelled over to Europe. Central Park is massive and there are so many places to visit within its boundaries. We managed to visit Belvedere Castle, the Great Lawn, Shakespeare Garden, The Ramble, The Jackie Onassis Reservoir, the Alice in Wonderland Statue, and we still left feeling like we barely scratched the surface. Strawberry Fields is a section of Central Park dedicated to the memory of John Lennon.
And that concludes a look at our very busy week in New York City. I'm still shocked we managed to cover so many attractions, but the great thing about this city is that distances aren't very long and there's always something really cool worth checking out around each corner.

We decided to set ourselves a challenge to see and do as much as we possibly could, and that gave way to this travel video guide which highlights 50 of the top attractions. In a city like New York this means we barely scratched the surface, but hopefully this video will highlight the cornucopia of possibilities that is the Big Apple.
We try our best to cover all of the top attractions including fine arts, entertainment, festivals, dining, architecture and museums as well as focusing on lesser known off the beaten path attractions to cover all forms of tourism. If you only have time to visit only one city in the United States it ought to be NYC, USA:

Eating Biltong taste test in South Africa
When visiting a new country there are always 'must have' foods worth trying. In South Africa one of these items is Biltong. Most similar to 'beef jerky' it has a special curing and processing that sets it apart from other forms of dried meat. Come find out if we enjoyed it (or not) as we munch away piece by piece from a brown paper bag outside.
Eating Biltong taste test in South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
Okay, so a new country, a new taste test. We are in South Africa right now and you can't come to this country and not try Biltong. So that is what I have right here in this brown paper bag.
So Biltong is a dried cured meat similar to beef jerky and this is what it looks like.
So we got ourselves some beef biltong but apparently you can get different kinds of meats. Like game meat or ostrich. This is cow. And it is quite hard and chewy but it makes a really nice snack, so let's say you're riding the bus or going on a really long trip it is kind of nice to just have a bag full and be munching away. That's what we have been doing for the past few days.
So for me Biltong is kind of like premium jerky. And there is three key differences. First off, it is sliced a lot thicker. Secondly, they use vinegar in the curing process along with salt and pepper. Which is a little bit different from regular jerky which doesn't have any vinegar whatsoever. And the third key difference is Biltong is not smoked whereas jerky is.
Okay, so the purchasing process? What was awesome is that we went into a kind of like what would be considered a deli that specialized in Biltong. And when we went in there was all of these different kinds of dried meat hanging up in different sections. There was one that was game meat, there was one that was regular, there was a premium kind. I can't remember but there was a forth kind as well. And anyways, what you would do is pick this meat off of a hook and bring it over to these ladies who would then put it through a grinder and it would go into this bag like that. So it was a really cool to be right there involved in the process. And it just made it a lot more special. And the other thing that I really noticed that was a big difference is that the quality of the actual meat itself is a lot better than what comes from say packaged pre-packed stuff you would find in a store.
So the word Biltong. What does it mean? I actually had to look this up but now I can tell you. So 'Bil' apparently comes from the Dutch word for rump and 'Tong' means strip or tongue. But contrary to popular belief Biltong is not made from bull's tongue, so don't be afraid to try it because of that.
What have you got in your hand over there? Okay, and last but not least we have something called Cabanossi which kind of looks like a dried pepperoni stick. We also picked this up at the same store we got the Biltong. So I'm going to try that. Yeah, so it is kind of like a greasy salami stick. Again, chewy, salty, flavorful. I think it makes a great snack. Which one do you like better? Or do you like them both?
I do like them both but this reminds me of salami or like a pepperoni stick so it is something I am familiar with. So I quite enjoy the flavor. One more bite.
So when you're visiting South Africa, unless of course you're a vegetarian, be sure to try Biltong. I swear it is pretty much addicting. I can't seem to stop myself over here.
This is part of our Travel in South Africa series. We're making a series of videos showcasing South African culture, South African arts, South African foods, South African religion, South African cuisine and South African people.

Eating Churros at Manolo in Lima, Peru
On a quest to indulge our sweet tooth, we walked a short distance from our apartment in Lima, Peru to visit Manolo for churros. Coming highly recommended from Audrey´s relatives we had high expectations prior to arriving. Once inside, we decided on a lethal trio of vanilla, chocolate and dulce de leche to go. They were all delicious; however, the dulce de leche ones were simply irresistible. I could have easily bought another 10 just for myself with the intention of drifting off into a diabetic coma. These churro were a notch above any other I´ve had outside of Argentina. The bar has been raised and I´ll have discerning taste buds for ´just regular´churros from now on ;) For those looking to visit, Manolo is located in Miraflores and a set of three churros costs 12 Soles (roughly $4 USD). Highly, HIGHLY recommended!
Eating Churros at Manolo in Lima, Peru travel video transcript:
So today we are on a food mission. We are looking for a place called Manolo and we're going to be eating some Churros. Let's go eat.
So getting there is half the journey. Now the other half is going to be eating it. And here we are - Manolo's!
So we went all out here and got one of each. So this is the one with chocolate, vanilla and dulce de leche. Talk about a trio. I know. Just for me.
So in case you've never tried Churro before it is just a deep-fried dough with like a hole in the middle so I guess you can fill it up with something really sweet and tasty. So the one I'm having right now has dulce de leche.
Mmmm. Oh my gosh, that's warm and gooey and sweet. So do you think it is fresh out of the oven? Oh, it definitely is. Wow!
Decisions, decisions, decisions. The decisions I have to make in life. Okay, I'll go with chocolate. Mmmmm.
His eyes are closed. That's a good sign. You're totally right about it being freshly made. I can taste the warm gooeyness of that chocolate inside. You're not getting a bite of that.
Last but not least, Vanilla! Mmmm.
It is like a vanilla pudding or like the filling you get inside the Boston cream donuts. Mmmm.
I still think I like this one better though - Dulce De Leche.
It's my number one.
So that was a very delicious snack and it wasn't very expensive at all. I lost my receipt but I think I paid somewhere near twelve Soles which would be around four dollars for those three very tasty, very sweet churros. Highly recommended.
So seriously, it is probably a good idea that we're walking home right now. I honestly could have had about five more of those dulce de leche churros. And we've got more food videos coming soon.

Mercado Indio: Shopping for Souvenirs at an Artisan Market in Lima, Peru
With time soon running out on our trip to Peru, we decided to visit the Artisan Market (Mercado Indio) to shop for Peruvian souvenirs to take home as presents for friends and family. The market, located on Petit Thors Avenue, is series of several warehouses with individual shops selling all kinds of different trinkets available for purchase. Wandering through the various aisles, one can't help but notice that many of the items for sale are the same from one store to the next. What can you find in this market? Just about everything. Some of the things we noticed we as follows:
Alpaca sweaters, mittens, winter hats (toques), leg warmers, chess games (Incas versus Spaniards), Coca candy, Cocoa tea, jewelry, masks, wooden carvings, figurines.
My best advice for those visiting the market is to have a good look around before you decide what to purchase. Be prepared to bargain and potentially walk away. Finding a good deal is more likely if you purchase several items from one particular store where they are more likely to give you a discount.
Shopping for Souvenirs at an Artisan Market in Lima, Peru Travel Video Transcript:
So we are taking part in Sam's favourite activity today. We are actually going shopping. So we are visiting a place called Mercado Indio which is like a local craft and artisans market, so we're just going to pick up souvenirs and see what we can find.
So you can buy all sorts of things here. There is Alpaca sweaters, mittens, leg warmers. You can get little chess games of the Incas versus the Spaniards. You can get Coca candy, coca tea, jewelry. The possibilities are endless. You can seriously spend a few hours just browsing around.
I think the cutest thing I've seen so far are the stuffed llamas. I might just bring one to cuddle back home on the plane.
So someone has been a busy little shopper over here. What do we have to show? I guess I'll show you my purchases. So I bought a collection of cute little mirrors. Actually they've been triple and quadruple wrapped in paper.
The big unveil. Okay, so I got a collection of three different mirrors. I think they're really cute. You can put them up on a wall. So yeah, I got some of those. I also got some Coca candy and some Coca tea. And we're going to shop a little bit more and see what we can find. Right?
So I got Coca candy and Coca tea over here. And when I was visiting Machu Picchu five years ago this tea right here helped me to acclimatize to the altitude.
So that concludes our afternoon of shopping. If you feel like checking out the market while you're in Lima it is located on Avenida Petit Thoars.

So we are taking part in Sam's favourite activity today. We are actually going shopping. So we are visiting a place called Mercado Indio which is like a local craft and artisans market, so we're just going to pick up souvenirs and see what we can find.
So you can buy all sorts of things here. There is Alpaca sweaters, mittens, leg warmers. You can get little chess games of the Incas versus the Spaniards. You can get Coca candy, coca tea, jewelry. The possibilities are endless. You can seriously spend a few hours just browsing around.
I think the cutest thing I've seen so far are the stuffed llamas. I might just bring one to cuddle back home on the plane.
So someone has been a busy little shopper over here. What do we have to show? I guess I'll show you my purchases. So I bought a collection of cute little mirrors. Actually they've been triple and quadruple wrapped in paper.
The big unveil. Okay, so I got a collection of three different mirrors. I think they're really cute. You can put them up on a wall. So yeah, I got some of those. I also got some Coca candy and some Coca tea. And we're going to shop a little bit more and see what we can find. Right?
So I got Coca candy and Coca tea over here. And when I was visiting Machu Picchu five years ago this tea right here helped me to acclimatize to the altitude.
So that concludes our afternoon of shopping. If you feel like checking out the market while you're in Lima it is located on Avenida Petit Thoars.

Our first impressions of Amsterdam with Busabout
Our third stop on our Busabout adventure across Europe was in Amsterdam. We had only previously been in the city in transit flying back home to Canada so we were eager to explore. We explored its canals by paddle boat, picnicked nearby museums and wandered around by night. Come find out what Amsterdam is all about.
Our first impresions of Amsterdam Travel Video Transcript:
After leaving Bruges behind, we drove on to Amsterdam, a city known for its bikes, canals, and tolerance for alternative lifestyles. We had been to the city before, but only in passing, so we were excited to get a deeper look at it this time around.
So we are on a boat, on a canal and that can only mean one thing - we've arrived in Amsterdam! And this is our third destination on our tour with Busabout. So today we're just spending the day in the city exploring. We thought we should hit the canals first and then maybe we'll wander around on foot.
Hiring a paddle boat was the easy part, but then the challenge was to navigate the canals with a map while ensuring we didn't get in the way of the bigger boats. There may have been a few minor bumps and scrapes along the way, but we eventually figured it out.
We survived the paddle boats. Now we're just hanging out at the park soaking in the sunshine.
Museumplein gets its name because it's a large green space surrounded by 3 different museums. If the sun is out, you can bet that people are going to be picnicking, napping, or tanning on the lawn. After a long day of walking, we enjoyed a little siesta on the grass, and of course, we too had to pose with the "I amsterdam" sign even if we got a little lost in the crowd.
It was then time to familiarize ourselves with Dutch treats. First up we tried hagelslag, which is made by taking a slice of bread, spreading butter on it, and pouring chocolate sprinkles. It tastes just like cake with icing.
We also tried stroopwafel, which is a thin waffle glued together with a caramel-like filling. It's so good especially if you let it sit and melt on top of a hot beverage.
In Amsterdam we also learned that the bicycle stereotype is completely true. There are more bikes than people, and more bikers than drivers. This is a city where you want to look both ways for vehicles and zooming bikes before you dare set foot off the sidewalk.
So we've shown you Amsterdam by day. Now it is time to go and explore the city by night and 'no' we are not going to the red light district because there is more to Amsterdam than that.
We made our way to Leidseplein, which is a busy square lined with bars, restaurants, and the fast-food phenomenon that is FEBO, where you put in a few Euros and get hot food out of a vending machine.
So sadly our time in Amsterdam has come to an end. Our next stop is Berlin so now we're off to catch our Busabout bus. Let's get going.
This is part of our Travel in Canada series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Canadian culture, Canadian arts, Canadian foods, Canadian religion, Canadian cuisine and Canadian people.

With one week in Prague, we hit the ground running trying to see and experience as much as we could in the Golden City. We had high expectations and Prague's beauty and charm managed to exceed all of them. It's a city we thoroughly enjoyed and wanted to share with you.
Now here's a look at the top things you can do in Prague:
The following are the best 35 things to do in Prague, Czech Republic presented in our latest city top attractions travel guide for Praha:
1) Visit Prague Castle

20) Get dizzy in the Mirror Labyrinth
21) Spend time admiring the Vysehrad Old Castle
22) Be sure to take a Vltava River Cruise
23) Drink cheap Pilsner Beer
24) Escape it all by visiting Jeleni Park
25) Enjoy live music from the Orchestra
26) Marvel at the strange architecture of the Dancing House
27) Down a little bit of Absinthe
28) Have your mind blown trying out the Mind Maze
29) Admire all things small at the Miniature Museum
30) Take a Segway Tour around Prague
31) Visit the Mucha Museum
32) Take a Tram ride all over Prague
33) Ride around Prague in style in a Luxury Car
34) Go visit the National Museum
35) Check out Strahov Monastery
Prague Castle is the largest ancient castle in the world and it is home to several palaces, as well as a cathedral, a basilica, and gardens.
We're here now in Novy Svet. It is a cool little neighborhood right behind the castle. Here we are at the Kafka Museum. This museum is dedicated to him and his work and you'll find some of his letters, diary entries and photographs inside. Stroll along the John Lennon Wall and you'll encounter portraits of Lennon and Yoko Ono. Right now we are visiting Prague's TV Tower and the strangest thing about this structure is that there are babies crawling up and down. Have a look. Up next we have a big plate of Goulash. Saint Vitus is a Gothic cathedral located within the walls of Prague Castle. Inside you'll be able to admire beautiful stained glass windows designed in the art nouveau style. Inside the KGB Museum you'll find old propaganda as well as some unusual pieces like a copy of Lenin's death mask. The Golden Lane gets its name because legend has it that Emperor Rudolph was a fan of alchemy. Charles Bridge is one of the most popular landmarks in the city. If you walk across during the day, you'll find musicians, artists, and vendors selling souvenirs. When in Prague you can check out the Astronomical Clock. It goes off every hour and it is right in the heart of the Old Town. You can't come to Prague and not sample the street food. One particularly popular item is the Trdlenik. Petrin Tower stands 63 meters high on a hill overlooking Prague. It slightly resembles the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Vyšehrad is a historical fort located in the city of Prague. In my hand here I've got myself a Pilsner beer and this is like a Czech institution. The Jeleni Prikop Park located right behind Prague Castle is a great place for a picnic or a little nap on the grass. Also one cool little fact. Even though the National Museum is currently closed you can still attend musical performances in the evening. The Dancing House is a building which stands out from the rest, done in the deconstructionist style. Here I've got Absinthe in my hand. It is an Anise flavored spirit and it is extremely popular here in Prague. Another cool thing you can do is visit the Miniature Museum where you can see microscopic art. The Mucha Museum pays homage to Alphonse Mucha, and it's a must visit if you enjoy art nouveau. And that sums up our visit to Prague! Our one week in the city left us charmed and it's a place that we'd be happy to revisit again.
What are some of your favorite things to do in the city? Please let us know in the comment section below:

Peruvian Food Taste Test
While traveling in Peru and sampling many different kinds of Peruvian cuisine, we thought it would be a great idea to sit down and do a complete Peruvian food taste test. After raiding a local Wong's grocery store and a few corner stores nearby the comfy confines of our apartment in Miraflores, it was time to let our taste buds take over.
The Peruvian snacks we selected are typical things you would find anywhere including Peruvian snacks, Peruvian junk food, Peruvian chocolate bars, Peruvian chips, Peruvian wafers, Peruvian sodas and Peruvian candies just to name a few. When it comes to eating sometimes our eyes are much bigger than our stomachs ;)
Overall, when considering things to do in Peru, I can't think of anything better than tucking into the local favorites. Peru (and Lima in particular) is the foodie capital of South America and trying many of these snacks for the first time was an adventure for our taste buds. Watch us as we react to the food. The following is a comprehensive list of all the things we tried from sweet to salty:
1) Chifles - Salty banana chips
2) Chin Chin - Chocolate cookies with colored sprinkles
3) Andean Native Potato Crisps - Purple Potato Chips
4) Inca Kola - Peruvian Cola that golden, refreshing and sweet
5) Perita - Pear candies that taste more like banana
6) Cua Cua - Chocolate covered Peruvian wafers with a duck logo
7) Doña Pepa - Peruvian cookie with chocolate and sprinkles
8) Camote - Sweet potoate chips that were really salty
9) Inka Corn - Peruvian corn nuts flavored with artificial cheese
10) Yucca chips - Starchy chips made from the Yucca root
11) Sublime - Peruvian White Chocolate with peanuts
12) Chicha Morada - Sweet purple corn juice that is refreshing
13) Sublime con leche con mani - Peanut milk chocolate
14) Besos de Moza - Krembo chocolate cookie with marshmallow
Out of all of the foods we taste tested I liked the Inca Kola and Besos de Moza the most while Audrey was infatuated with the Doña Pepa. Do you have a favorite Peruvian snack to eat? Let us know in the comments section below.
This is part of our Travel in Peru series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Peruvian culture, Peruvian arts, Peruvian foods, Peruvian religion, Peruvian cuisine and Peruvian people. All things Peruano. The best of Comida Peruana.

This is a city that comes alive during the summer months, and it was great enjoying all the events taking place in the city as well as relaxing outdoors. We loved revisiting Helsinki and we discovered so many new places that we had completely skipped over the first time around.

12 Things To Do In Helsinki Finland | Top Attractions Travel Guide
Nimikkeen takaisin Suomessa - ja erityisesti Helsinki - oli meidän suurin yllätys tänä kesänä. Kuten pääkaupunki, se on lähellä tahansa suurkaupungissa tarjoaa, mutta se jotenkin säilyttää runsaasti pikkukaupungin charmia. Yksi tärkeimmistä syistä on se, että et ole koskaan kaukana luonnosta. Hypätä polkupyörän tai kajakin ja olet muutaman kilometrin sinusta tuntuu ikään kuin olet yksin yhtä luonnon kanssa.
Olemme luoneet tämän matkaoppaan esiin kaikki Top Tekemistä Suomi, korostetaan erityisesti Helsingin kaupungin. Alkaen Suomen kulttuurista Suomen Elintarviketyöläisten alkaen suomalaisia ruokia muihin matkailuun hauskoja liittyvien toimien löydät sekä parhaat nähtävyydet jotkut enemmän off-the-pahoinpideltiin-polku omituinen asioita harkita tekee teidän seuraava loma.

Heading back to Finland - and specifically Helsinki - was our greatest surprise this summer. As the capital city, it has the attractions any big city offers, yet it somehow retains plenty of small town charm. One of the main reasons is that you're never far from nature. Hop on a bicycle or kayak and you within a few kilometers you'll feel as though you're all alone at one with nature.
We've created this travel guide highlighting all of the top things to do in Finland with a specific emphasis on the city of Helsinki. From Finnish culture to Finnish Food an from Finnish Cuisine to other tourism fun related activities you'll find both the best attractions some of the more off-the-beaten-path quirky things to consider doing on your next vacation.

With its long days and short nights, summertime is a great time to be in Helsinki. This was our second visit to the Finnish capital, and we were excited as ever to experience it for a couple of days. With summer in full swing, we enjoyed dinners al fresco, boat trips to nearby islands, and lots of walking around town. Here's a look at how we spent our time in Helsinki:
This is a city that comes alive during the summer months, and it was great enjoying all the events taking place in the city as well as relaxing outdoors. We loved revisiting Helsinki and we discovered so many new places that we had completely skipped over the first time around.

Nimikkeen takaisin Suomessa - ja erityisesti Helsinki - oli meidän suurin yllätys tänä kesänä. Kuten pääkaupunki, se on lähellä tahansa suurkaupungissa tarjoaa, mutta se jotenkin säilyttää runsaasti pikkukaupungin charmia. Yksi tärkeimmistä syistä on se, että et ole koskaan kaukana luonnosta. Hypätä polkupyörän tai kajakin ja olet muutaman kilometrin sinusta tuntuu ikään kuin olet yksin yhtä luonnon kanssa.
Olemme luoneet tämän matkaoppaan esiin kaikki Top Tekemistä Suomi, korostetaan erityisesti Helsingin kaupungin. Alkaen Suomen kulttuurista Suomen Elintarviketyöläisten alkaen suomalaisia ruokia muihin matkailuun hauskoja liittyvien toimien löydät sekä parhaat nähtävyydet jotkut enemmän off-the-pahoinpideltiin-polku omituinen asioita harkita tekee teidän seuraava loma.
1) katutaiteilijoita ja katuesiintymiset
2) Helsingin tuomiokirkko

Sen pitkä päivä ja lyhyitä öitä, kesällä on hyvä aika olla Helsingissä. Tämä oli meidän toinen vierailu Suomen pääkaupunki, ja olimme innoissamme kuin koskaan kokea sitä pari päivää. Kesän täydessä vauhdissa, nautimme illallista ulkosalla, veneretkiä lähisaarille, ja paljon kävelyä ympäri kaupunkia. Tässä tarkastellaan, miten vietimme aikaa Helsingissä:
Tämä on kaupunki, joka herää eloon kesäisin, ja se oli mahtavaa nauttia kaikista tapahtumista kaupungin sekä rentouttava ulkona. Rakastimme tarkistamassa Helsingin ja huomasimme niin paljon uusia paikkoja, että olimme täysin ohitetaan ensimmäisellä kerralla.

Touring Cape Point in Cape Town, South Africa
With our time extremely limited in Cape Town, we decided to take a Cape Point Peninsula tour to cover as many of the main scenic attractions in the surrounding area as we possibly could. Our hectic day included visiting Seal Island, Boulders Penguin Colony, and the Cape of Good Hope doing boat tours, hiking and biking. We spotted wild Ostriches and Baboons. At one point we spotted a baboon on top of a car with the lady inside freaking out. To say the day was eventful would be an understatement; however, the one wrinkle was that the weather was quite crappy. I really wish we could have done this tour on a nicer day.
Touring Cape Point in Cape Town, South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
So, good morning from rainy Cape Town. Today we've signed up to do a Cape Point and Peninsula tour. So we're going to be traveling down to Cape Point by bus. We're also hauling some bicycles along. So once we get there we're planning to go biking, do a little bit of hiking and we're going to see some sights along the way. It should be fun and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rain holds off.
So this morning we're taking a boat tour to Seal Island and hopefully we'll spot some seals along the way.
We're going in search of penguins.
I've seemed to spot a rather large unusual penguin over here. It looks rather uncoordinated. And a little bit silly.
So we're not allowed to get too close to the penguins. They may be cute but they're quite vicious with their little beaks.
Alright, so this is where the fun begins. We've arrived at the Cape of Good Hope and right now we're unloading the bikes. We're going to get all suited up and get ready to go biking. Finally!
We're biking in a National Park and apparently it could be a bit like a mini safari. There has been a lot of animals spotted here. Especially baboons.
Having fun so far? I am but I look a little bit ridiculous but I'm trying to stay warm. It is windy out here.
Okay, so we've just finished biking five kilometers. Now it is time for our delicious lunch. What do we have? I'm going to enjoy this. We've got a lovely sandwich and Malay macaroni salad. I can't wait for that salad. Yeah, so we're going to fuel up and then keep biking for another six point five kilometers. So we need our energy.
Alright, so we have arrived at the Cape of Good Hope. This is the southwestern most point on the African continent. So as you can see over there lots of people snapping their photos.
The weather is still not cooperating with us. It is cold, it is wet, it is raining but we're still going to go for a hike so let's go find our guide and get going.
Smart phone? Hello? Aaahahaha. Go away! Okay guys, keep all windows locked. They smell food. Wow, she is screaming.
Well we didn't spot animals while we were actually on our bikes. But while we were in the vehicle we saw ostriches and we saw baboons. And the baboons were being crazy. One was right on top of a vehicle and a lady freaked out totally.
And that concludes our Cape Point tour. The sun is just coming out just as we're about to leave. That is just how it is sometimes.

Canoeing and Hiking in Wilderness, South Africa
Audrey and I both grew up in rural settings with backyards that led down paths covered with forest and dotted by mountains. We're finding now, as we get a little bit older, that we're thoroughly enjoying visiting places that remind us of our roots. While traveling along the coast of South Africa we encountered such a destination named Wilderness. As the name suggests outdoor adventures are what you come here to experience. After doing a bit of research we settled on canoeing and hiking. The following is our journey for the day.
Canoeing and Hiking in Wilderness, South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
So this morning we are in Wilderness and we've decided to do a bit of canoeing. We're out on the water now and it is a beautiful day, so we're just going to be traveling upstream and maybe doing a little bit of hiking later.
So we've done a lot of kayaking before together but this is our very first time to canoe. And it is definitely a little bit more stable. Part of that has to do with the canoe being wider than a kayak. The other part has to do with just these waters. They couldn't be any more calmer.
I know, it is like being on a mirror. Seriously. Look at that. Hardly any waves or ripples.
Here comes another one.
If you see another one come by let me know.
Alright, so we're coming up on a little rope bridge. We're just going to canoe right under it.
Okay, so that is as far as we can get on our canoes. We are going to be hiking the rest of the way. Get moving. Hahaha.
Alrighty, so we're off the river now and we're going to be doing a bit of hiking. We've got our little maps so hopefully we won't get too lost. Yeah, let's head in to the unknown.
I think a lot of people who come to South Africa have this type of image of the landscape being completely barren and dry. Kind of just safari land. But there is so much diversity here. And this is a really good example. We're now walking through a lush rain forest.
Let's go.
I seriously have no idea what animal that was.
But it was very cute.
So I think we're getting closer to the waterfalls. I can hear them off in the distance. And this looks like a bit of a different path so let's go.
Well, well, I don't know if you can hear that but it sounds like we made it to the waterfalls. So we're almost there just follow me a bit longer. We'll show you the water.
And we made it!
So we're now on our way back. We saw the waterfalls and we're heading back to find our canoes. And we met a few travelers along the way. A few hikers who are also making their way to the waterfall. And they asked us, you know, how far to get there? And it made me realize that Canadians are some of the only people who measure distances based on time. How long it takes to get there. They are asking us how many kilometers. How many miles? And that is such a typical question but a Canadian will tell you like 10 or 15 minutes or so. Yep, that's us.

Samuel L. Jackson Interview on This Morning 17/6/13
Highest grossing movie star of all-time Samuel L. Jackson gives an interview on This Morning 17th June 2013.
L'interview hallucinante de Samuel Eto'o sur Guardiola
Samuel Eto'o n'a pas sa langue en poche. Au lendemain de l'écrasante victoire de Chelsea contre Arsenal (6-0), où il a inscrit le premier but du match, le Camerounais a réglé ses comptes avec Pep Guardiola sur BeIn Sports, dans "Le Club du Dimanche." Une interview surréaliste. "J'ai rappelé à Guardiola qu'il n'avait pas été un grand joueur."
© getty.
J'ai dit à Guardiola: "Celui qui va te faire gagner c'est Eto'o et tu viendras me demander pardon."
Je lui ai d'abord rappelé qu'il n'a jamais été un grand joueur. Il était un bon joueur
Luis Fernandez, Jean-Alain Boumsong et Jean-Pierre Papin n'en croyaient pas leurs yeux en écoutant les propos de Samuel Eto'o. On le sait, l'attaquant de Chelsea a une haute estime de lui-même, lui qui parle à la troisième personne. Alors quand on lui offre la possibilité de parler de son ancien entraîneur, ça clashe.
"J'ai d'abord rappelé à Guardiola qu'il n'a jamais été un grand joueur. Il était un bon joueur. C'est vrai. Je lui ai dit", a lancé Eto'o, qui est parti du Barça parce qu'il ne s'entendait pas avec l'ancien coach. "Comme entraîneur, il n'avait rien démontré. Il est arrivé et il ne connaissait même pas l'histoire du vestiaire ! (...) J'ai eu une discussion avec lui et une très belle offre pour aller jouer six mois en Ouzbékistan où ils me donnaient 26 millions de dollars. Dans son bureau, il me dit ça peut te faire du bien, vas-y. Je lui ai dit: "Celui qui va te faire gagner c'est Eto'o et tu viendras me demander pardon." Et je suis resté à ma place. (...) Il n'a jamais eu le courage de me dire les choses en face."
"Je lui ai parlé deux fois"
"J'ai parlé deux fois à Pep. Une fois, c'est parce qu'il me demandait d'aller parler à Yaya Touré, qui ne voulait rien savoir de lui. Une autre fois c'est parce qu'il voulait me donner des conseils d'attaquant. Mais il était milieu de terrain, pas attaquant!", dit aussi celui qui avait inscrit le premier but de la finale de la C1 en 2009 contre Manchester United, premier titre européen de l'ère Guardiola. "Pep me disait comment faire les mouvements d'attaquants. Je lui ai dit : "Mais tu n'es pas normal toi?" La vraie histoire, c'est que Pep n'a pas respecté des choses dans le football."
On pourrait vous citer toute l'interview mais pour la découvrir par vous-mêmes

Django Unchained Samuel L. Jackson - H 2012
When asked to address the prolific use of the word in Quentin Tarantino's new film, Jackson refuses to do so unless the interviewer says it too.
That's one way of shutting down a tired line of questioning.

'Django Unchained': What the Critics Are Saying
Tarantino's 'Django Unchained' Reignites Debate Over N-Word in Movies
In Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, a Western epic set in the pre-Civil War South, the film's various characters say the N-word more than 100 times, resulting in a major debate over the movie's historical accuracy and respect of modern social standards. Not normally one to skirt any debate -- especially one over language -- it seems that the eventual ubiquity of the conversation finally put Samuel L. Jackson over the edge.
PHOTOS: THR's Biggest Rulebreakers 2012
In an interview with Houston's Fox TV affiliate, the actor -- who plays a house slave loyal to a plantation owner, played by Leonardo DiCaprio -- Jackson refuses to discuss the use of the N-word until his interviewer, film critic Jake Hamilton, uses the actual word. Hamilton, a white man, refuses.
"Have you ever said it? Try it! We're not going to have this conversation unless you try it," Jackson said, breaking into laughter. When Hamilton asked him to say it, Jackson said, "F--- no, it's not the same thing."
Jackson was good-spirited about the exchange, though he never did answer the question. Earlier in December, Tarantino spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the criticism over his use of the word and violence in the film.
"Not one word of social criticism that's been leveled my way has ever changed one word of any script or any story I tell," he said. "I believe in what I'm doing wholeheartedly and passionately. It's my job to ignore that."

It's not everyday that you get to dress up like Kings and Queens while touring a castle. While visiting Cavernago, Bergamo we had a chance to do just that along with learning how to make traditional Italian cuisine. Our first order of business was preparing lunch, so we headed into the kitchen for our Italian cooking class. Our lesson consisted of making a full course meal including pumpkin ravioli, steak tartare and tiramisu for dessert. Everything was made from scratch, including the pasta, which gave us a new-found appreciation for the amount of preparation that goes into making high quality Italian cuisine.

Pizza al taglio: Pizza by the slice in Milan, Italy
One of the few things that has remained consistent throughout my life is an absolute love for pizza. Growing up as a child I would request my Mom make pizza for my birthday. If it was time for take-out I'd voice my opinion to order pizza.
I remember once my parents went away for the weekend and left me with money to order food and do groceries. Well, you probably guessed it by now - I ordered enough pizza to eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 3 days in a row.
Aside from probably explaining my 'pizza face' as a teenager I've been a fan of pizza even as my taste buds have evolved to the point where I now enjoy all types of cuisine f

Risotto alla Milanese in MIlan, Italy
One of our top priorities after arriving in Milan, Italy was to find some local cuisine that is unique to this region. Fortunately, through the help of some friends we discovered that a specific type of risotto is a specialty of Milan. Specifically it is called Risotto alla Milanese and the secret ingredient that gives it such a bright yellow color is saffron. Unlike other risottos that feature many competing flavors and ingredients, Milanese is decidedly simple given that it is predominantly saffron and cheese. Come find out if we think it is worth sampling or not.

Italian Breakfast in Milan, Italy
Recently we've spent over a month in England and Ireland. For breakfast, on a typical day, we've been eating the likes of eggs, sausages, bacon, and fried potatoes. It's basically been an all-star assortment of savory types of items washed down with tea. Now that we've found ourselves in Milan, Italy it's a whole other story. After consulting with some locals and doing a bit of research online, we've realized Italian breakfast is a sweet affair. Coffee or cappuccino paired with something sweet (pastries, cakes, breads, jams) is what a local would have more often than not. With this in mind we visited a cafe recommended by a friend to sample s

Whenever I think of what is quintessential British food, fish and chips immediately comes to mind. Fortunately, growing up in Canada, fish and chips were plentiful and popular. I could easily find restaurants specializing in them and given that I grew up on the West coast and the majority of my extended family lived on the East coast, a good chipper was never too far away. However, with that being said, nothing really compares in terms of quality to the fish and chips you can get in Britain. They're original, authentic and greasy as can be.

Rurki Z Kremem: Polish Torpedo Dessert
Having sampled many of the savory dishes that Warsaw, Poland serves up it was time for us to sink our teeth into something sweet. For our first Polish dessert, we decided to get a popular Polish street food roughly translated as Torpedo dessert. Known locally as Rurki Z Kremen, these torpedo shaped bread rolls consist of an outer layer that is a like a wafer cookie and inside filled with thick cream. The cream itself isn't overly sugary but more so rather thick and rich. It is kind of nice having a dessert that isn't overly sweet. have you tried this before in Poland, Bulgaria, Turkey or Russia?

So far in Poland we've been enjoying hearty meals typically rich in portions of meat and potatoes. Continuing with this theme we tried Bigos, after a recommendation from a Polish born man now living in the US, which is known as Hunter's Stew consisting of fermented cabbage, sauerkraut (known locally as kapusta kiszona), Polish sausage (kielbasa) and various other kinds of vegetables and meats. Upon first glance it is not the most appealing looking dish; however, it is really tasty and flavorful with a strong sour flavor due to the fermented cabbage.

Having a Dutch stroopwafel (roughly translated as a syrup waffle or a caramel waffle) is an absolute must when you're visiting Amsterdam. What exactly is it? These Dutch waffles consist of two thin layers of baked dough with a kind of caramel/syrup in the center.
Originating from the city of Gouda, you'll find these in supermarkets, in restaurants or as street food. In this video we taste test a package we bought from the local supermarket; however, we'd recommend you try the freshly made ones from a specialty shop.

Well, as we found out in Bruges there is actually no such thing as a Belgian waffle; it's entirely a North American 'term' given to differentiate between the types of waffles typically eaten back home. Within Belgium itself it is just purely a waffle.
What makes Belgian waffles different from American waffles? Typically they're larger with lighter batter and larger squares with a grid pattern forming deep pockets. Anyhow, they're delicious and you can have all kinds of different toppings and creams slathered on top.

Our second stop on our Busabout adventure was in the Belgian city of Bruges. Having recently watched the movie 'In Bruges' starring Colin Farrell we were both eager to see what the city was all about. In the movie Bruges is described as not the most endearing city by Ray: "Ken, I grew up in Dublin. I love Dublin. If I'd grown up on a farm, and was retarded, Bruges might impress me. But I didn't, so it doesn't!" However, the irony is that you won't find too many cities, even in Europe, that are as cute and architecturally as impressive as Brugge.

After devouring our Italian creations we toured Castello di Malpaga (Malpaga Castle) all decked out in fancy attire. It was the perfect way to end what was an incredibly fun day.
Italian Cooking Class at Castello di Malpaga (Malpaga Castle) in Cavernago, Bergamo, Italy Travel Video Transcript:
Okay guys, so I'm pretty excited about today. We have left Bergamo behind and we're visiting a castle outside in the countryside. It's called Castello di Malpaga and we are going to be taking a cooking class inside a castle. So I'm going to get ready to start cooking and Sam is going to give you a tour of the castle so you can see what it looks like.
So this is a family owned castle. It dates back to the 13th Century. Let me give you a tour.
The first lesson of the day was to focus on dishes that take the longest to prepare, so we got started with dessert- a delicious tiramisu with a modern twist!
Like that? More aggressively. Like that.
So I'm taking a quick break from the kitchen to tell you today's menu. We are going to be preparing beef tartare as an entree, ravioli for the main course and then tiramisu for dessert. So it should be very tasty. Let's get back to the kitchen and let's keep cooking.
For our main dish we prepared ravioli, and because this is Italy the dough had to be made from scratch. There were no shortcuts here and everyone was put to work kneading and then rolling out the dough into thin layers.
What are we doing over here? Rolling some pasta. It requires a lot of muscle work. More muscle than I have.
Preparing the stuffing was next. We went with a vegetarian option, which was pumpkin.
Smashing pumpkins. Like the bad. Hahahaha. So clever.
Once again, we took no shortcuts here. Pumpkins were chopped, peeled, and then boiled, before being pressed into a paste that we used as our filling.
The last dish of the day was beef tartare. I skipped out since it's not to my taste, but I was told it was very tasty.
So we have now finished preparing our three course meal and we're going to go have lunch inside the feast hall which has painted frescoes that are just beautiful. So let's go in.
Buon appetito!
How is the food so far? It is delicious because I prepared it myself.
I hardly did any work actually. The truth comes out.
And now that lunch is over we get to play dress-up. Let me lead you around my castle.
I am Queen of this kingdom.
Once we had eaten lunch, it was finally time to tour the castle - a very exciting prospect, especially when you're dressed in Renaissance costumes. We paraded around like kings and queens, and then explored the former home of Bartolomeo Colleoni, who was captain-general of the Republic of Venice and earned quite the reputation battling neighbouring city-states.
We're Kings and Queens from around the world. And winter is coming. Winter is coming.
So I had a lot of fun cooking, eating and playing king for a day in a castle but unfortunately all good things come to an end and it is time for us to go back to Milan.
This is part of our Travel in Italy series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Italian culture, Italian arts, Italian foods, Italian religion, Italian cuisine and Italian people.

Gelato: Indulging in Italian Ice Cream
I still remember the first time I tried Gelato. I was wandering aimlessly in Buenos Aires when I spotted an ice cream parlor selling Italian Gelato. I was instantly hooked. The quality of Italian ice cream is a cut above what I've tried back home in North America. With the opportunity to visit Italy for the first time it was a no-brainer that we'd sample gelato from where it was created. Come join us as we sample several different flavors and explain what makes gelato primo ice cream.
Gelato: Indulging in Italian Ice Cream Travel Video Transcript:
One of the pleasures of coming to Italy is indulging in the local ice cream known as gelato. Here we've each got two cones. I've got the waffle cone over here and Audrey's going to be trying the regular cone. We've got different flavors and we can't wait to try a taste test now.
Okay, so I went for a medium sized cone with two scoops. The first flavor is wild berries and the second one on top is a bit unusual. It is pear and cheese. I've never had cheese flavored ice cream before unless it was cheesecake. So it should be interesting.
Mmmmm.
Okay, wild berries are really good. One more lick.
Mmmm.
Okay. So that is the pear and cheese. It has real chunks of pear so it is very fruity. It has a nice strong flavor. And you also taste a hint of cheese. I couldn't tell you what kind of cheese it is but it is coming through. I'm very happy with the selection.
Now tell us about the flavors in your giant waffle cone. Yeah, so I picked two as well. This one over here is black cherry.
Hahaha.
Is that good? A bit of brain freeze. I took too big of a bite.
Yeah, you can really taste the cherry. It is very strong and over here is pistachio. And pistachio is awesome. It is one of my favorite ice cream flavors. I think the only one I particularly like more is rum and raisin but they didn't have that.
So what would be the difference between gelato and regular ice cream that we're used to in North America?
Okay, so there are a few key differences. First up, gelato is churned at a slower rate so that means it gets less air and then it has a thicker, denser quality.
And the second key difference is that gelato has a lower fat content which means the flavors of the ice cream really come through. So that is why I like gelato a lot better than ice cream.
So gelato is also served at a slightly higher temperature than ice cream meaning it melts fast and that is why we're gobbling it down really quickly right now.
Mmmhhhmm. Yours is already melting. It sure is.
And how about that price point for that delicious little treat we enjoyed?
Okay, so my medium sized cone was two fifty and Sam's was three fifty. And those prices are in Euros. And also a gelato is really easy to find in just about any city. Just as we were walking down the street we came across maybe like four or five different shops, so try it out the next time you're in Italy.

Okay, so I went for a medium sized cone with two scoops. The first flavor is wild berries and the second one on top is a bit unusual. It is pear and cheese. I've never had cheese flavored ice cream before unless it was cheesecake. So it should be interesting.
Mmmmm.
Okay, wild berries are really good. One more lick.
Mmmm.
Okay. So that is the pear and cheese. It has real chunks of pear so it is very fruity. It has a nice strong flavor. And you also taste a hint of cheese. I couldn't tell you what kind of cheese it is but it is coming through. I'm very happy with the selection.
Now tell us about the flavors in your giant waffle cone. Yeah, so I picked two as well. This one over here is black cherry.
Hahaha.
Is that good? A bit of brain freeze. I took too big of a bite.
Yeah, you can really taste the cherry. It is very strong and over here is pistachio. And pistachio is awesome. It is one of my favorite ice cream flavors. I think the only one I particularly like more is rum and raisin but they didn't have that.
So what would be the difference between gelato and regular ice cream that we're used to in North America?
Okay, so there are a few key differences. First up, gelato is churned at a slower rate so that means it gets less air and then it has a thicker, denser quality.
And the second key difference is that gelato has a lower fat content which means the flavors of the ice cream really come through. So that is why I like gelato a lot better than ice cream.
So gelato is also served at a slightly higher temperature than ice cream meaning it melts fast and that is why we're gobbling it down really quickly right now.
Mmmhhhmm. Yours is already melting. It sure is.
And how about that price point for that delicious little treat we enjoyed?
Okay, so my medium sized cone was two fifty and Sam's was three fifty. And those prices are in Euros. And also a gelato is really easy to find in just about any city. Just as we were walking down the street we came across maybe like four or five different shops, so try it out the next time you're in Italy.

Pizza al taglio: Pizza by the slice in Milan, Italy
One of the few things that has remained consistent throughout my life is an absolute love for pizza. Growing up as a child I would request my Mom make pizza for my birthday. If it was time for take-out I'd voice my opinion to order pizza.
I remember once my parents went away for the weekend and left me with money to order food and do groceries. Well, you probably guessed it by now - I ordered enough pizza to eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 3 days in a row.
Aside from probably explaining my 'pizza face' as a teenager I've been a fan of pizza even as my taste buds have evolved to the point where I now enjoy all types of cuisine from around the world. However, with that being said it felt special being in Italy for the first time (Milan) with the opportunity to sample pizza from its origin. Come find out if Italian pizza lived up to the high expectations I had for it.
Pizza al trancio (Pizza al taglio): Pizza by the slice in Milan, Italy Travel Video Transcript:
So it is lunchtime here in Milan and we figured why not have pizza when in Italy. I've only had pizza once the whole time I've been here and it was time to try a few others. So we've been walking around the city and we walked by this one shop and we saw they had like these extra thick slices of pizza. It almost looked like a focaccia bread with toppings. So we went in there and grabbed two slices.
Tell us what did you get for yourself?
So I got the one that had salami and mozzarella. And this reminds me a lot of the pizza I had in Buenos Aires in Argentina. These massive thick slices that you would just go into a shop and order. And I think this is going to be delicious. Ooh, time for the first bite.
And I like that has already been pre-sliced into small little pieces for us.
Perfect for lunch at the park.
That's really good.
Tasty? Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Gooey cheese? Oh, yeah.
I don't even have anything to say.
Hahaha.
What did you get on yours?
Okay, so mine has what I believe in mozzarella and some small tomatoes and basil leaves. So it looks really good.
And I was asking the guy who served our pizza, you know, what kind of pizza is it? What style is it? And he called it pizza al trancio. And I looked that up and it basically means pizza by the piece or pizza by the slice. And as you can see it has already been pre-sliced into little portions, so it is perfect for you know just getting it to go, having lunch at a park or eating it outdoors.
Yeah, we're having it in a park now as it just starts to rain.
So time to try this. It looks wonderful.
Oh my goodness. Wow!
Is that good?
Oh, yeah.
So the dough, I mean it is really thick but it also has a bit of a fluffy quality to it and that is like a thick layer of cheese as well. Like that is a generous amount of cheese. Check this out?
Look at all that cheese.
It kind of reminds me of Chicago Deep Dish style as well.
So the only other slice of pizza we've had in Milan so far was the super super thin slice of pizza. How does this over here compare?
Well, you can never go wrong with pizza as far as I'm concerned. But if I had to choose, one of the two, I would go with the thicker pizza. I just love the thick dough and the generous amount of cheese. That is just unbelievable. And you're getting more bang for your buck so it is more food technically. Yeah, that is true.
And how much did those two slices of pizza cost? Okay, so that was seven Euros total for the two slices. So about three fifty each. Not bad for such a giant slice of pizza, I'd say.

Risotto alla Milanese in MIlan, Italy
One of our top priorities after arriving in Milan, Italy was to find some local cuisine that is unique to this region. Fortunately, through the help of some friends we discovered that a specific type of risotto is a specialty of Milan. Specifically it is called Risotto alla Milanese and the secret ingredient that gives it such a bright yellow color is saffron. Unlike other risottos that feature many competing flavors and ingredients, Milanese is decidedly simple given that it is predominantly saffron and cheese. Come find out if we think it is worth sampling or not.
Risotto alla Milanese in MIlan, Italy Travel Video Transcript:
Well good evening from Milan. It is our first full day here and it is now dinner time. So we just found a local little restaurant and we're going to be trying a traditional dish that is very popular in this city and in the Lombardy region. We are going to have Risotto alla Milanese .
First impressions from Milan so far? Ah, it's been great. Especially the food. And every time you go to a restaurant I'm looking at the menu and I'm like I want this, I want this, I want this, I want this.
So I have a hard time deciding and I'm not even sure if we're going to get to cover everything before we leave. Well, tonight it is risotto.
First impressions of Italian food here in Milan? It's been really good. This bread I'm having right now is really good actually. I'm already on my forth slice. I'm a little worried because I may start to get full before the risotto actually arrives.
My Risotto alla Milanese has arrived. And in case you're not too familiar with risotto it is basically a type of rice that is very thick, very starchy and it absorbs a lot of liquids. So this should be good. It almost looks a little soupy and creamy. And also my Risotto alla Milanese gets its color from saffron. So saffron is a bit of a reddish orange color when it is dry but when you stick it and mix it with the rice it turns it yellow. So enough about that let's try it. Surprise!
Mmmmm.
Do you like that? Oh, wow!
That is so good. And it is already cheesy. I mean I know I added a lot of cheese but I think they had already melted some cheese and mixed it in.
So yeah, very cheesy and very buttery.
You can never get too much cheese.
That is so good. You're going to like this.
Wow. Is it heaven?
Seriously that is amazing. Like risotto might be my new favorite Italian food. It's that good. It's so good. It is that good.
And the thing I like about this one is that it is really plain. Like I've had other types of risotto and there is a lot of things going on. There is a lot of different ingredients but this is just really simple. You've got your cheese, you've got your saffron. Yum.
Right now it is six twenty in the evening and we've basically got the restaurant to ourselves and that is because locals would never go out to eat this early. This is not even close to dinnertime. I'm thinking more like eight, nine, ten maybe even eleven. That is what time dinner is.
And we can see all of the empty chairs right behind you.
Judging by your plate I'm assuming you enjoyed it?
That is an empty plate and a happy boy.
And the price was also very reasonable coming in at seven Euros. Great value, excellent meal.

Italian Breakfast in Milan, Italy
Recently we've spent over a month in England and Ireland. For breakfast, on a typical day, we've been eating the likes of eggs, sausages, bacon, and fried potatoes. It's basically been an all-star assortment of savory types of items washed down with tea. Now that we've found ourselves in Milan, Italy it's a whole other story. After consulting with some locals and doing a bit of research online, we've realized Italian breakfast is a sweet affair. Coffee or cappuccino paired with something sweet (pastries, cakes, breads, jams) is what a local would have more often than not. With this in mind we visited a cafe recommended by a friend to sample some sweet Italian breakfast.
Italian Breakfast in Milan, Italy Travel Video Transcript:
Well good morning from Milano, Italia. We are here in Italy. It is our first day, so we have gone in search of the Italian breakfast. Now we weren't entirely sure what an Italian breakfast looks like so we did a bit of research and asked around and apparently it is just a coffee and anything sweet. So that could be pastries, bread with jam, cake or cookies. So we've sat down at a little cafe and we're going to have our first Italian breakfast.
So my beverage of choice today is the cappuccino because it is a very cold day. And why not have some frothy coffee. It's a cold day. When is fifteen degrees considered cold? Look at the way I'm dressed. I'm cold okay?
Ooh, that is nice. Excellent cappuccino. Nice and rich and frothy? Mmmm.
Indeed. Wanna try some?
So this breakfast reminds me a bit of breakfast in France and also in Argentina. A sweet way to start the day and I have to say it is a quite a huge contrast and change from what we were used to in England and Ireland where we were having full savory breakfasts. With eggs and sausages and mushrooms. Lower calories and a lot sweeter.
And this pastry here I've selected, I honestly don't really know what it is. What made me select it was that I saw walnut bits. And hey, I'm a huge fan of walnuts so I don't know what is inside. It looks like it might be apple. Let's find out.
I thought it was going to be prunes. Mmmm.
No, no no. That is like pecan pie. That's pecan filling inside. Let's see the inside. Oh wow!
That is so delicious.
Oh, it's like having pecan pie.
Pie for breakfast. He's a happy boy.
And what do you have over there?
Well, this is the pastry I chose. It is a little twisty one with chocolate chips.
That is really good. It is very buttery and flaky. And you just can't go wrong with chocolate chips this early in the morning. I'm a fan.
So we're going to be here for a week in the Lombardy region and I can't wait to try as much Italian food as possible. It's one of my favorite cuisines.
And last but not least, price point? Well, this delicious breakfast for two came to five Euros and that included two cappuccinos and two pastries. So not an expensive way to start the day.
Yeah, talk about value. Mmmmhhmmm.

Alternative Afternoon Tea in London
When one thinks of afternoon tea in London possibly the image of a posh setting like the Ritz comes to mind. There are plenty of hotels and restaurants where you can find high afternoon tea in the price range of 20 to 50 pounds. However, what are the options for those who don't want to spend that much? Come find out as we explore where to find budget/alternative afternoon tea.
Affordable Afternoon Tea in London Travel Video Transcript:
Okay, so it is tea time and this afternoon we're doing something a little bit different. We are in Camden town at the basement tea rooms. And it is kind of like an alternative experience. Instead of going out for afternoon tea at the Ritz, at a fancy hotel that might cost you around 50 pounds. Here it is only 13 and it is a very casual laid back experience. So, waiting for my tea.
Feeling pretty relaxed over there? Nothing like having tea in bed.
So my absolute favorite thing about afternoon tea is getting scones with cream and jam. And we've got six whole scones. My goodness! Not just any cream. Cornish clotted cream.
My happy place.
Alright, we tried the sweets. Time for me to have the savory sandwich. Little finger sandwiches. What kind of sandwich is it? It's delicious. It has cream cheese and salmon. Wow!
That is why you haven't been sharing because it has salmon. That's right. You've been keeping it a secret.
Alright, and we have one more to try here. This one is on whole wheat bread. It appears to be egg salad with spinach. Tasty.
I like the salmon one better though. It's all over your mouth.
Is someone going to take a little afternoon nap after all that food.
Snoring.
And after tea you can do a little bit of shopping.
That was really good afternoon tea. Total bargain. Normally you'd be looking at spending anywhere say between 20 to 50 pounds per person. And we got that for thirteen something. Total. Wow!

Full English Breakfast in London
While traveling in Asia, I often craved a full breakfast. By full breakfast I mean sausage, bacon, eggs, beans and possibly even pancakes and/or waffles. While traveling in England, where full breakfast reigns supreme, it was easy to get my fix. Come join as we hit up a local pub in London to tuck into this high calorie feast of a breakfast.
Full English Breakfast in London Travel Video Transcript:
Alright, so good morning from London. We are up bright and early to do some sightseeing around town. But first up we need our energy so we've stopped at a pub for a full English breakfast. Ooh, look at that.
So what exactly is in a full English breakfast? Alright, so before we tuck into this breakfast let's take a look at what we've got.
So we have toast over here. We've got sausage. We've got baked beans, egg, tomato, hash browns and bacon. So that is going to be a lot of calories. That seems quite complete. Yes.
So we've got here is fairly complete but it does vary by region and sometimes you can get it with black pudding.
I'm kind of glad this one doesn't have it because I'm not a fan. I'd try it.
Alright, I'm loading up a little bit of everything on here. So I've got my beans, my hash browns and the sausage.
You know what? It's very greasy, very hearty, it is almost like having lunch for breakfast but it tastes really good. I'm really hungry right now so I'm just going to keep working at it.
Time for my first bite. Oh man, that sausage is tasty. It actually reminds me of a Canadian breakfast that I'd sometimes order at a restaurant which includes a lot of these items but also sometimes it comes with waffles or pancakes. So this is a huge hearty breakfast. More like a brunch than just a standalone breakfast. And we can't forget Canadian maple syrup. Yeah.
So what is the price point for this delicious full English breakfast? So basically you're looking at paying roughly around just under 4 pounds for the breakfast. And we paid one pound for unlimited coffee and tea which was awesome because we're going to take advantage of that for sure.
Well, when in England just about anywhere. We're having breakfast right at a pub right now but you can also get a full English breakfast at a hotel or at a restaurant. So you'll have no trouble finding one if you really want to try it. Yeah, and it is really well advertised. Mmm hmmm.

wn.com/Full English Breakfast In London
While traveling in Asia, I often craved a full breakfast. By full breakfast I mean sausage, bacon, eggs, beans and possibly even pancakes and/or waffles. While traveling in England, where full breakfast reigns supreme, it was easy to get my fix. Come join as we hit up a local pub in London to tuck into this high calorie feast of a breakfast.
Full English Breakfast in London Travel Video Transcript:
Alright, so good morning from London. We are up bright and early to do some sightseeing around town. But first up we need our energy so we've stopped at a pub for a full English breakfast. Ooh, look at that.
So what exactly is in a full English breakfast? Alright, so before we tuck into this breakfast let's take a look at what we've got.
So we have toast over here. We've got sausage. We've got baked beans, egg, tomato, hash browns and bacon. So that is going to be a lot of calories. That seems quite complete. Yes.
So we've got here is fairly complete but it does vary by region and sometimes you can get it with black pudding.
I'm kind of glad this one doesn't have it because I'm not a fan. I'd try it.
Alright, I'm loading up a little bit of everything on here. So I've got my beans, my hash browns and the sausage.
You know what? It's very greasy, very hearty, it is almost like having lunch for breakfast but it tastes really good. I'm really hungry right now so I'm just going to keep working at it.
Time for my first bite. Oh man, that sausage is tasty. It actually reminds me of a Canadian breakfast that I'd sometimes order at a restaurant which includes a lot of these items but also sometimes it comes with waffles or pancakes. So this is a huge hearty breakfast. More like a brunch than just a standalone breakfast. And we can't forget Canadian maple syrup. Yeah.
So what is the price point for this delicious full English breakfast? So basically you're looking at paying roughly around just under 4 pounds for the breakfast. And we paid one pound for unlimited coffee and tea which was awesome because we're going to take advantage of that for sure.
Well, when in England just about anywhere. We're having breakfast right at a pub right now but you can also get a full English breakfast at a hotel or at a restaurant. So you'll have no trouble finding one if you really want to try it. Yeah, and it is really well advertised. Mmm hmmm.

Fish and Chips in London
Whenever I think of what is quintessential British food, fish and chips immediately comes to mind. Fortunately, growing up in Canada, fish and chips were plentiful and popular. I could easily find restaurants specializing in them and given that I grew up on the West coast and the majority of my extended family lived on the East coast, a good chipper was never too far away. However, with that being said, nothing really compares in terms of quality to the fish and chips you can get in Britain. They're original, authentic and greasy as can be. Come join us as we sample a box in London at a local park.
Fish and Chips in London Travel Video Transcript:
It is lunchtime. In my hands I have a box of delicious take-out. This is fish and chips an authentic British staple and we're going to sample it here at this local park.
Time for the big unveil. Do do do do. Woah!
Okay, the last one too.
Oh, it looks like they gave us guacamole. Are you serious? I've never had guacamole with fish and chips.
So I'm really excited to finally try the fish and chips. The aroma coming out of this box is just wonderful. And I think this is a dish that most people are familiar with in North America. You can also get fish and chips there. But in case you're not it is usually just breaded cod or haddock and you get it with chips are french fries. So enough talking about food. This is the real deal. Let's actually dig in.
Mmmmm. I'm going to start with a chip. And that is not guacamole. Mmmm. I have no idea what that is. Mushy peas? I think I'm having mushy peas. It is not guacamole. Oh my gosh.
Hahahaha. Why would there be guacamole?
I don't know. Mexican influence.
Oh, I'm going to dunk that into the tartar sauce.
Wow. That's amazing. I think that is pretty much my favorite British food. Absolutely love fish and chips. It is something I've been eating all of my life but they just do it extra special over here. It is authentic and it is really really amazing.
And you have a few pigeons trying to steal your food. They are slowly inching their way over. Oooh. Oooh.
So what kind of historical or background information can you can give us on fish and chips.
Well, I can tell you today, this day in history that we spent about two minutes to finish that off. All that is left is a little bit of sauce and grease.
Now some history about the dish. The first shop opened up in 1860 and so I guess it has only been around for a hundred and fifty years. That is hard to believe. So fish and chips are kind of new. Yeah, and I've been eating them for about 30 of those years.
And price point. So in terms of price we paid 12 pounds which I guess if you're earning a local salary isn't so bad but if you're bringing over your Canadian dollars you're getting pounded by the exchange currently. Anyways, yeah, that was really good. It was enough food for the two of us. I mean, I probably could have ate my own but that is only because I'm a pig.

Steak And Ale Pie picnic in London
When it comes to sampling steak pies, I have to admit I've been spoiled over the years. I've had great pies in Canada, Australia and even South Korea. In fact, one of the first meals we ever had together was a steak pie at Jester's (Australian restaurant) in South Korea. In London we got to try steak and ale pie picking it up at a local pub and bringing it to a nearby park to devour. Come find out if it lives up to its reputation.
Steak And Ale Pie picnic in London Travel Video Transcript:
Well hello, we are in London where the weather doesn't appear to be cooperating. It was beautiful and sunny about two minutes ago so we came here to the park thinking 'hey' we'll have a picnic and it has since started pouring rain. So we are doing a little taste test under a tree.
So today we are having something called a Steak and Ale pie. And this is something that Sam has been very excited about so time for the unveil.
Tell us about this dish. I first tried this in Edinburgh, Scotland about a year and a half ago and fell in love with it. So it is basically like a pastry. You can see right here. And inside of it you've got stewed meat, you've got veggies and of course ale.
Let's check it out. And there is also gravy as well.
Crispy. Sounds real crispy. Maybe you should just use your hands and forget about the spoon. Alright. Here we go.
Mmmmm.
Wow. That pastry filing or sorry not filing outer layer is delicious.
Okay, so they also gave us a little bit of gravy. I'm not even sure if we're supposed to be doing this but we're just going to pour it all over the meat pie. Yeah, why not. Make it a little soggy. That's how Canadians eat British food.
And I'm just going to go ahead and throw some peas on there while I'm at it. Why not? Why not.
Alright, time for your first bite. See if you can get it into the middle inner layer there. Inner layer? The filing? Yeah. Exactly.
Okay, this probably would have been a lot messier if we just ate it at the pub.
Mmmm.
Wow. That is good stuff. What do we have in here? Okay, so this is steak. I don't think this one has veggies actually. So I think we maybe just got a standard meat pie because there are no veggies in the filling that I've come across so far.
Well, the peas we threw in. Well, yeah, that makes it kind of healthy right? Um, it is really nice with the gravy because our, I guess the pastry was a little crispy, so that makes it a little soggier and easier to get at.
Um, so yeah, I'm really enjoying this. It's pretty good.
Enjoying it? Okay, so do you think that you can taste the ale in your meat and ale pie? Yeah, a little bit but it is not overwhelming that is for sure. You mostly taste the gravy and the sauce that comes with it. And it comes with chips. Chips. What pub food would be complete without chips.
Just as we finish our meal the sun emerges. Yeah, exactly. So the price point for this, we picked this up at a pub for about seven pounds, we've also visited a few other pubs where we've noticed it is more expensive there. So I'm not sure what a typical price is. This, I think, was a decent deal. And very tasty. Very tasty.

Éclair Taste Test in Paris
Out of the many tempting treats we've spotted while visiting French Bakeries (Patisseries) is this long oblong shaped donut covered in icing and filled with cream inside. If you haven't guessed it already we're talking about Éclairs.
The classic one is chocolate; however, they come in all kinds of different flavors including coffee, pistachio, fruit and/or rum. For this particular taste test we grabbed a chocolate and coffee flavored eclairs.
Upon doing research it was fascinating for us to realize that the French word éclair means 'flash of lightning.' Thus, eating it slowly is definitely out of the question ;)
Come find out what makes these tasty treats such a staple item in French bakeries.
Éclair Taste Test in Paris Travel Video Transcript:
Well, well it is time for another French dessert. So today we are introducing you to the Eclair. And I have two Éclairs in here that I just picked up from the little bakery shop. And it is time for the unveiling.
Alright, so I went for the classic chocolate-topped Éclair. So basically it is just a long doughy pastry and the inside is supposedly filled with cream. And it has chocolate icing on top but let's bite in to be sure.
Quality control over here.
How is that?
Actually, mine is not cream. It has like a creamy chocolate pudding in the middle and chocolate icing on top. That is almost liked a filled churro. And the taste?
Yeah, it is delicious. It is amazing. I mean the pastry, it is almost like puffed pastry, it is very light and it is hollow inside so then they just fill it. Is it overly sweet? It is not overly sweet. It is more creamy than anything. It is like pudding.
That is really good.
Surprisingly good.
Okay, so you've got a slightly different one. Yeah, mine is the coffee flavored one. You can also get all kinds of different flavors. There are different fruit flavours, there is rum toppings, there is all kinds of toppings. So if you enjoy the classic chocolate one definitely consider trying the other ones as well.
Yeah, I think we saw strawberry and pistachio. Yeah, they have pistachio too. Yep.
Alright, let's try this coffee one.
Again, it is the inside - the cream, the pudding - and this one is of course coffee flavored cream inside. A really generous amount. It is almost like there is more pudding than pastry. Which is delicious.
That is surprising. I was expecting the interior to have like a white whipped cream. Like a white pudding. Nope.
It has got the flavor to match the icing. Yeah.
Okay, so once again the price point for the Eclair.
So to pick up an eclair you're looking at 2 to 2.50 Euro and again it is at a French bakery or Patisserie. And what I would recommend having it with is with a coffee or even have it as a dessert. It is delicious and highly recommended.

Hiking the Carpathians in Romania: Ceahlău Massif in Neamt County
Easily the highlight of our time in Romania was having the privilege of hiking up the Carpathians (Ceahlău Massif Mountain) in Neamt County. Unfortunately, due to a persistent neck injury I was forced to linger behind while Audrey joined the rest of the blogging crew to ascend up the mountain. This challenging (yet rewarding) hike is well documented by Audrey as she huffs out of breath frequently during her speaking clips. Fortunately for all of us she takes ample time to capture all of the rugged beauty this mountain range has to offer.
Hiking up Ceahlău Massif in Neamt County, Romania Travel Video Transcript:
So hello from Romania. I'm currently in Neamt County and we're doing something a little bit different today because there is no Sam around. No, so we had signed up to do this hike and climb Ceahlău mountain in Ceahlău National Park but unfortunately Sam has hurt his neck so he had to stay back in the hotel and just get some rest. So today it is just you and me. And we are going hiking. And I've already been hiking for a few hours. And I've lost my group actually. I think I was going maybe a little bit too fast and everyone else has fallen behind. So I've been walking on my own for a few hours. I think I'm still on the right path. But yeah, it should be an interesting hike and hopefully we'll get some nice views soon.
We are just forty-five minutes away from reaching the cabin on top of the mountain. Whew, let's keep going.
Hey puppies. Puppies.
Are you cute? Wanna say hello?
Alright, so it took a bit longer than I was expecting but I finally made it to the top of the mountain and over in the background you can see the cabin. Well, it is more of a nice little guesthouse where we're spending the night. And now let me show you the views because this place is spectacular.
Okay, so I'm still a little bit tired from this morning's hike but it is time for sunset and apparently you get some really good views from a peak that is about forty five minutes away. So I'm hiking once again. Hopefully I'll have wonderful sunset views to share once I get to the top.
Well good morning, it is now day two and we have officially finished our hike. We just finished coming down the mountain and that took about two and a half or three hours I would say and I'm going to show you where we came from. You can see it over there. It is maybe a little too bright. But anyways I'm walking down to the local bar now because they are expecting us with welcome drinks.
And off in the distance comes the husband. He looks like he's recovered from his strained neck. Walking once again. Hey. Hey. How was the hike? It was good. Me with my gimpy back I couldn't join. It's too bad. Wonk. Wonk. Wonk. Did you enjoy the Jacuzzi? Yeah, and we actually did a little hiking nearby town too. So nothing like what you guys did though. We failed.

Rurki Z Kremem: Polish Torpedo Dessert
Having sampled many of the savory dishes that Warsaw, Poland serves up it was time for us to sink our teeth into something sweet. For our first Polish dessert, we decided to get a popular Polish street food roughly translated as Torpedo dessert. Known locally as Rurki Z Kremen, these torpedo shaped bread rolls consist of an outer layer that is a like a wafer cookie and inside filled with thick cream. The cream itself isn't overly sugary but more so rather thick and rich. It is kind of nice having a dessert that isn't overly sweet. have you tried this before in Poland, Bulgaria, Turkey or Russia? More food videos coming soon from Warszawa.
Torpedo dessert is known as the following in other countries:
Bulgarian: фунийки с крем
Turkish: Torpil tatlısı,Külah tatlısı
Russian: Трубочки с кремом
Polish: Rurki z kremem
Rurki Z Kremen: Polish Torpedo Dessert Travel Video Transcript:
Alright, so it is time for dessert and next up we've ordered some Rurki. Which apparently is a torpedo dessert. And now when I was reading about these online it said that it is supposed to be a buttery flaky pastry that is filled with cream but as you can see this is more like a wafer. It looks a bit harder to me. So yeah, we're going to try it. I'm going to try it.
It is crumbly.
Oh yeah. It is almost like an ice cream cone that has been filled with cream. And also the cream isn't sweet.
They either forgot to add sugar or they just like there cream very natural. So it is a whipped cream but not sweet at all. It must be healthy for you. Healthy dessert. Woah!
So apparently the Rurki originated from Turkey and Bulgaria but this is obviously the Polish kind. And I think what makes it different is that the outer layer is more like a crispy wafer. It is kind of like a wafer cookie. So my turn to try it.
Yeah, it is pretty good. You're right, the cream isn't overly sweet but it is very thick. And you can tell that it is a good quality.
So not our most super informative video but that is all I know about the Rurki. It is a really nice treat, fun street food snack that you can just pickup in the center of town and in terms of price point we paid the equivalent of a Euro for these two little rolls. So pretty affordable and pretty tasty.

Bigos: Eating Polish Hunter's Stew in Warsaw, Poland
So far in Poland we've been enjoying hearty meals typically rich in portions of meat and potatoes. Continuing with this theme we tried Bigos, after a recommendation from a Polish born man now living in the US, which is known as Hunter's Stew consisting of fermented cabbage, sauerkraut (known locally as kapusta kiszona), Polish sausage (kielbasa) and various other kinds of vegetables and meats. Upon first glance it is not the most appealing looking dish; however, it is really tasty and flavorful with a strong sour flavor due to the fermented cabbage. If you're in Warszawa, or anywhere in Poland for that matter, be sure to try Bigos!
Bigos: Eating Polish Hunter's Stew in Warsaw, Poland Travel Video Transcript:
So it is lunchtime over here and we are in Warsaw's old town. Today we are going to be sampling something called Bigos which is a traditional Polish dish. And it consists of different meats and cabbage. So we've just ordered our food and now we're waiting for it to get here.
So tell us the tail of how we learned about Bigos. While we were traveling on the train from Berlin to Warszawa were met this Polish guy who spent a lot of time in the US. And basically he was raving about this Bigos. This Hunter's stew. So this is the reason why we're trying. A recommendation from a local basically.
Alright, so my lunch has arrived. Low and behold here is my Bigos. And this may look like a small portion but that is just because I ordered it as an appetizer. And you can normally get it in a bread bowl or you can get it with a side of potatoes. I got some sliced bread here in the basket so I'm going to be trying that. And also, I've learned that no two Bigos recipes are the same. It is basically just a mix of different cuts of meat. You can have beef, veal, pork, venison, rabbit. Whatever you want to throw in there it works.
So I've got a nice fork full of cabbage and some kind of meat. Let's see if I can decipher what it is.
Okay. That is really good. The cabbage it almost tastes a little bit fermented but it is not as strong as sauerkraut.
And the meat, I think it might be beef. It's a familiar flavor.
So time for your first fork full. Yeah!
Yeah, you're right. That is really good. I like that is has a bit of sour taste. That is really appealing for me.
And what is cool about Bigos is that it literally means big mess, big confusion and so if you look down here that is exactly what it looks like. It just looks like a hodgepodge of all different kinds of things. Vegetables, meats, cabbage. And that is exactly what Bigos is.
Okay, so apparently Bigos is the kind of dish that you can refrigerate. And then reheat and that is meant to make the flavors a lot stronger. And it is also the kind of dish that keeps on giving. So that means if you start running low you can just add some cabbage, add some meat and make it last for a week.
Alrighty, so that was delicious. What is the price point for the Hunter's Stew? So if you want to pickup the Hunter's Stew while you're in Poland you can expect to pay the equivalent of five to seven Euros. And definitely we recommend it. It's delicious and it is very hearty and just an awesome meal.

Blogstock Festival
Heading to London for just a few days it was a pleasant surprise for us to attend Blogstock 2015 hosted in beautiful Aldenham Country Park. As the world's first blogging festival creative minds converged to learn, share, network and party. We were fortunate enough to catch up with old friends and meet up with people we've known for years online face to face for the first time. We also had the opportunity to speak on a couple of panels related to YouTube and other video publishing platforms. Overall, it was a great event and next time we'll bring our tents to enjoy the entire three day experience.
Event: http://www.blogstock2015.com/
Bloggers we interviewed (in order of appearance):
1) Elizabeth Sellers - http://www.rosalilium.com/ & http://awesomewave.net/
2) Raj Dhokia - http://awesomewave.net/ & http://www.averagechap.com/

Blogstock Festival Travel Video Transcript:
Alright, so this morning we are off to a festival. It is called Blogstock. And as you can guess from the name it is a blogging festival. So we're just heading over there. It is taking place in a park just north of London. And yeah, the weather isn't really cooperating but hopefully it'll get sunnier later on in the day.
Alright, so we've arrived at Blog Stock. I've had my hot cacao so I'm all warmed up. And now we're going to give you a little tour of the place.
What are your sort of like top tips for a startup Youtuber?
Okay, my top tip would probably have to do with SEO. I see a lot of people who don't write a proper title for their video. They don't include any tags. They don't have a description. And you have don't have the audience on your channel yet and you want people to start finding you your video needs to rank when they're searching for the best beaches in Thailand. Or you know, the best restaurants in New York City. So do really good SEO on your videos so that you'll show up in the searches, people will find your channel and maybe if they like what they see they'll end up subscribing. So good SEO can help grow your audience. Even though SEO is kind of boring and some don't want to learn about it.
Your favorite thing about Blogstock?
If I had to narrow it down to just one favorite thing it was networking with other bloggers and brands in the same industry as us. There is so many creative people doing amazing things. It is great to get to know them as individuals and to see what they're doing in terms of projects.
And what was your most memorable experience from blogstock?
I think getting to talk about YouTube and video just because it is something I really enjoy and I wish more people would try making YouTube videos. So that was a lot of fun.
Paul, so tell us why should people come to blogstock?
If you're a blogger you should come to blogstock because there is lots of different sessions from different niches where you can learn all about blogging obviously. Instagram, photography. You can learn about how to make money from your blog. How to be more professional. How to pitch.
All sorts of different sessions. We also have lots of varied sessions so some stuff is more inspirational as well. Like how to conquer your fears and live life to the full. That kind of stuff.
And we have some great food. Some wood-fire pizza. A great bar. Also craft beer and lots of different things going on. We've got fancy castle going on, lots of fun games. Yeah, it's great so come along, camp for the weekend and it is loads of fun.

Stroopwafel: Delicious Dutch syrup waffle in Amsterdam
Having a Dutch stroopwafel (roughly translated as a syrup waffle or a caramel waffle) is an absolute must when you're visiting Amsterdam. What exactly is it? These Dutch waffles consist of two thin layers of baked dough with a kind of caramel/syrup in the center.
Originating from the city of Gouda, you'll find these in supermarkets, in restaurants or as street food. In this video we taste test a package we bought from the local supermarket; however, we'd recommend you try the freshly made ones from a specialty shop.
Any which way they're delicious and I don't want to admit how many of these tasty treats I devoured while in Amsterdam. As a quick tip, to eat these like a pro place your stroopwafel on top of any kind of hot beverage (tea, coffee, hot chocolate) and let the steam melt the inside of caramel. Trust me on this one! ;)
Stroopwafel: Delicious Dutch syrup waffle in Amsterdam travel video transcript:
So another day in Amsterdam and another day to try some Dutch food. So today we are introducing you to the Stroopwafel. Again, hopefully I'm pronouncing that correctly because Dutch is a very difficult language. But as you can see on the package this is a tasty Dutch treat. It is a waffel. A very thin waffle and it is two layers glued together by a nice sticky caramel. So we're going to be trying those and showing you what they're like.
Okay, so basically these come in a few different sizes. This is kind of like your traditional size and then you can get them as little mini bites. But you don't just pop these in your mouth. There is a very specific way of eating them. So Sam is going to demonstrate that. Get ready for the lesson.
So not only is this more tasty but you will impress your Dutch friends by doing this. So basically what you want to do is take any hot beverage. It can be a tea, it can be a hot chocolate, it can be a coffee. And you put your Stroopwafel on top and you let it sit for a while. And you know why you do that? In the middle. In the inside the caramel melts. So you have it like that and you just let the steam rise and it melts it and makes it ooey, gooey and oh so delicious.
Oh, so patience now. Tick tock. Tick tock.
Patience my friends. An important virtue in life.
Alright, I think that is good enough. Let's see how your Stroopwafel is doing. And cheesy accents aside let's try this.
Wow! These waffles are amazing. And you know what is crazy. These aren't even the best quality waffles. You can actually get them. They taste a lot better if you get them made on the street. These are packaged, store boughten ones. And they're still amazing.
So, I'm not sure if the Dutch would approve but I like dipping my cookies. So I'm going to do the same with my Stroopwafel. Hopefully I'm not breaking some kind of food law.
Mmm.
Not bad.
Alright, how much is this going to set us back? So we picked these up at a local grocery store. This is just a generic brand. We picked them up. There is twelve in a package. We paid just over a Euro and at a 145 calories per waffle not bad value.

Belgian Waffles taste test in Bruges, Belgium
How could you not try a Belgian waffle while visiting Belgium?
Well, as we found out in Bruges there is actually no such thing as a Belgian waffle; it's entirely a North American 'term' given to differentiate between the types of waffles typically eaten back home. Within Belgium itself it is just purely a waffle.
What makes Belgian waffles different from American waffles? Typically they're larger with lighter batter and larger squares with a grid pattern forming deep pockets. Anyhow, they're delicious and you can have all kinds of different toppings and creams slathered on top.
Whether you're having one for breakfast, lunch, dinner or merely as a snack, be sure to grab one when in Brugge.
Belgian Waffles taste test in Bruges, Belgium Travel Video Transcript:
Waffles! Waffles! We are having waffles!
Well, considering today is our last full day in Belgium we couldn't leave the country without trying at least one Belgian waffle.
And to prove its authenticity it even has a Belgian flag. Why don't you take out that flag and wave it. Come on, go wave it.
Wave the flag?
Wave that flag.
Belgian waffles, dun da da dun da da.
Belgian waffles. dun da da dun dah.
So the funny thing about Belgian waffles is that there is no such thing as Belgian waffles in Belgium.
Sure, in North America we call them Belgium waffles but here they are just regular old waffles.
And that is only because we have crappy waffles. Yes, we have to put them in the toaster. We usually buy them from the frozen section in Canada.
But anyway, what sets these waffles apart is that they are a lot larger, a lot fluffier and the squares are a lot bigger than your average waffles that you buy from the frozen section back in North America. So let's dig in before this starts melting.
First bite. Okay, so we got ours with chocolate sauce and whipped cream.
This is like technically our dinner isn't it?
Oh, wow.
Wow.
Tell me how good that is. That is so good I have no words so I'm just going to take a second bite.
And leave me less?
Mmmm.
I don't even know where to begin. Like, it is amazing.
It is a proper waffle guys with lots of chocolate sauce, lots of whipped cream. Nice and sweet. Yes. Oh. You want a flier?
And what did you just get handed? We've just been invited to a special event tonight. There is some kind of festival and there is going to be a clubbing stage guys. So, we're going to eat our waffle first and then have energy to go clubbing apparently.
Alright, I haven't been left with much but I guess I'll take whatever it is that there is left.
Wow.
Chocolate sauce and whipping cream is a winning combo. And you're right, those are freshly made waffles done properly. How can I eat the stuff back home after this?
So what are the different toppings you can get on these waffles?
Lots of different toppings. You can get strawberries, wild berries. There was icing sugar. Even butter. So I mean there is something for every taste out there.
Pure butter. Yes, but I'm happy with chocolate.
So price point for the waffle? So in terms of this waffle it was 4.50 Euros. Not exactly the cheapest snack but definitely delicious.

What makes Belgian waffles different from American waffles? Typically they're larger with lighter batter and larger squares with a grid pattern forming deep pockets. Anyhow, they're delicious and you can have all kinds of different toppings and creams slathered on top.
Whether you're having one for breakfast, lunch, dinner or merely as a snack, be sure to grab one when in Brugge.
Belgian Waffles taste test in Bruges, Belgium Travel Video Transcript:
Waffles! Waffles! We are having waffles!
Well, considering today is our last full day in Belgium we couldn't leave the country without trying at least one Belgian waffle.
And to prove its authenticity it even has a Belgian flag. Why don't you take out that flag and wave it. Come on, go wave it.
Wave the flag?
Wave that flag.
Belgian waffles, dun da da dun da da.
Belgian waffles. dun da da dun dah.
So the funny thing about Belgian waffles is that there is no such thing as Belgian waffles in Belgium.
Sure, in North America we call them Belgium waffles but here they are just regular old waffles.
And that is only because we have crappy waffles. Yes, we have to put them in the toaster. We usually buy them from the frozen section in Canada.
But anyway, what sets these waffles apart is that they are a lot larger, a lot fluffier and the squares are a lot bigger than your average waffles that you buy from the frozen section back in North America. So let's dig in before this starts melting.
First bite. Okay, so we got ours with chocolate sauce and whipped cream.
This is like technically our dinner isn't it?
Oh, wow.
Wow.
Tell me how good that is. That is so good I have no words so I'm just going to take a second bite.
And leave me less?
Mmmm.
I don't even know where to begin. Like, it is amazing.
It is a proper waffle guys with lots of chocolate sauce, lots of whipped cream. Nice and sweet. Yes. Oh. You want a flier?
And what did you just get handed? We've just been invited to a special event tonight. There is some kind of festival and there is going to be a clubbing stage guys. So, we're going to eat our waffle first and then have energy to go clubbing apparently.
Alright, I haven't been left with much but I guess I'll take whatever it is that there is left.
Wow.
Chocolate sauce and whipping cream is a winning combo. And you're right, those are freshly made waffles done properly. How can I eat the stuff back home after this?
So what are the different toppings you can get on these waffles?
Lots of different toppings. You can get strawberries, wild berries. There was icing sugar. Even butter. So I mean there is something for every taste out there.
Pure butter. Yes, but I'm happy with chocolate.
So price point for the waffle? So in terms of this waffle it was 4.50 Euros. Not exactly the cheapest snack but definitely delicious.

In Bruges
Our second stop on our Busabout adventure was in the Belgian city of Bruges. Having recently watched the movie 'In Bruges' starring Colin Farrell we were both eager to see what the city was all about. In the movie Bruges is described as not the most endearing city by Ray: "Ken, I grew up in Dublin. I love Dublin. If I'd grown up on a farm, and was retarded, Bruges might impress me. But I didn't, so it doesn't!" However, the irony is that you won't find too many cities, even in Europe, that are as cute and architecturally as impressive as Brugge. Come join us as we munch down on Belgian fries, chocolate and waffles as we discover the city by foot and by boat on the canals. We also show you what a night out on the town looks like. We're confident that after watching this you'll have a better opinion than Ray (Farrell) did of the city ;)
In Bruges with Busabout Travel Video Transcript:
After leaving Paris, our next stop with Busabout was Bruges. However, en route to our destination we made a surprise stop at Vimy Ridge. The Battle of Vimy Ridge was fought during the First World War, where Canadian troops played an important role in capturing German-held ground. Today there's a memorial with a statue of Mother Canada weeping over the lost soldiers.
Well, Hello and welcome to Brugge! We are excited to explore the city. We just got here in the afternoon. The light is perfect, the day is beautiful and we're going to go explore and see what the city is all about.
Once in Bruges we set off to see the Old Town. We watched horse-drawn carriages roll down the square, admired the buildings, and visited chocolate shops because if there's one thing you have to do in Belgium, it's sample all their delicious chocolate.
So good morning. It is the start of day 2 here in Bruges, so we're going to continue sightseeing. I think the first order of business is to try and find a boat so we can take a little tour down the canals and maybe after that we'll start thinking about food. I know there is a few Belgian dishes that we're itching to try so let's get started with the day.
We started off the morning with a cruise down the canals. Like many cities in Europe, Bruges too has earned the nickname 'The Venice of the North' due to the numerous waterways that run through the city. It was a great way to get a closer look at the city, and it didn't hurt that we had swans to keep us company.
The boat trip helped build up our appetite, so our next logical stop was a little shop specializing in fries. The Belgians assert that they invented fries and not the French, so we ordered a plateful with mayonnaise and curry ketchup.
After eating lunch, we continued exploring the town on foot, and then it was time for dessert.
Waffles, waffles! We are having waffles.
What do you get when you have a major sweet tooth, if not Belgian waffles doused in chocolate syrup and whipped cream. Delicious!
So this is completely unplanned but we just found out we are in town during this crazy music and dance festival. So we've been handed a flier and there is a whole bunch of different workshops happening. You can learn to break-dance, dance the Charleston. You can go to different concerts. So we're going to be spending the evening here in the town just checking it out and visiting the various stages.
The Benenwerk Festival was the best surprise of them all! The silent disco was our personal favourite. Everyone wore headphones and there were 2 dueling DJs so you could switch frequencies and decide who you wanted to listen to. After showing off our best dance moves, aherm, we spent the rest of the evening checking out the different stages at the festival.
So there has been a lot of dancing involved in the last hour, so now it is time to cool down with our first Belgian beer. Beer o'clock! Cheers! Woo!
And that's a wrap for our short but sweet visit to Bruges. Next up: Amsterdam!

The Perfect Day in Paris
What is the perfect day in Paris? For us, coming back to Paris again for a brief visit meant visiting some of our favorite neighborhoods, frequenting French bakeries (patisserie), revisiting some of our favorite attractions and checking out new areas. We teamed up with Busabout (http:http://www.busabout.com/) to document our adventure. Come find out how to make the most of a fun-centric day in the capital French capital.
The Perfect Day in Paris Travel Video Transcript:
Well Hello, and welcome back to Paris again. We are here for the second time this summer and this is because we are about to travel with Busabout. Which is a hop on hop off bus service that runs all over Europe. And Paris is our first stop. We're going to be spending a few days here and today we're going to show you what the perfect day in Paris looks like.
The best way to get around Paris is by metro, so we bought a ticket, hopped aboard, and went in search of a delicious French breakfast.
Surprise surprise. Our first order of business for the day is getting food. And a friend recommended a really cool local French patisserie, which is a French bakery. So we're off to try and find that.
When in Paris, you just have to do as the French do and stock up on sweet pastries. Since we have a bit of a sweet-tooth, this proved to be no problem at all!
Alright, so we went to La Maison Du Chou. And we got our little Chou and now it is time to try these tiny little pastries. So first bite.
That is really nice. So it is a light fluffy pastry. A little moist in the inside. And it is also filled with cream and it is delicious. This one is praline flavored.
So next up we're going to visit on of the cutest streets in all of Paris. This is called Rue Cremieux. And it is lined with colorful little buildings that are painted in pink, lavender, teal and there is lots of flowers everywhere. And it is just really pretty. So we're going to take a walk down here.
Rue Cremieux is as dreamy as it appears on Instagram and Pinterest boards. It’s a quiet little lane tucked away from the busy streets, and we enjoyed snapping a few photos and playing with the local pups who call this place home.
Hello. Oh, you're so sweet. Yes, you are. Yes, you are so sweet. Look at you.
We continued our Paris outing with a walk along the banks of the Seine, where some people were working on their tans and others were enjoying sightseeing tours by boat. We then arrived at Notre Dame. The lines to visit the interior of the church are always long in the summertime, but thankfully the views from the outside are just as impressive.
Then, not too far from the church, we came across Shakespeare and Company, which is one of the best known bookstores in the city. They sell a mix of vintage and used books outside, and you can also browse new titles if you go in. We tend to stick to travel literature most of the time, but we ended up picking up a philosophy book just to try something different!
Not a bad view over there behind me.
And it wouldn't be a proper visit back to Paris without visiting the Eiffel Tower next to me. So that is what we're doing right now. We're just hanging out at the park. I'm going to enjoy my new book that I book at Shakespeare and Company. And Sam is going to cool down with a drink.
There were lots of people just hanging out in the park, laughing with friends, and soaking in the sunshine.
With that we headed back to our neighbourhood along Bassin de la Villette, where locals and tourists like to congregate in the evenings. The canal is lined with little cafes, but people also pack their own picnics and set up on the waterfront. And just like that it was time to say goodbye to Paris. Next up: onwards to Bruges!

Paella vs Fideuà taste test in Madrid, Spain
It is time for another epic Spanish food battle. For this highly contested match we have in one corner Paella and in the other corner Fideuà. Without spoiling too much Paella is considered the National Dish of Spain originating from Valencia. Come find out what makes these two dishes so irresistible as we taste test them both in Madrid, Spain.
Paella vs Fideuà taste test in Madrid, Spain Travel Video Transcript:
So it is dinner time in Madrid and today we are here at a local restaurant where we're going to be trying two different dishes. We are planning to eat Paella and something called Fideuà. They are two dishes from the region of Valencia. And there are some similarities and some differences between the two so we'll be showing you those as soon as the plates arrive.
The food has arrived. Yes, some I'm going introduce mine first. I am having the Fideua, which is kind of like a noodle Paella, and it is made with Vermicelli noodles which are super thin and mine has mussels, prawns and squid as well as artichoke hearts so let's take a big bite of this.
It's hot.
That is really nice.
Wow.
You can really taste the seafood. It is super flavorful. And I also like that the noodles are a little bit overcooked. Like they are nice and soggy, which is how I like them. So I'm quite happy with my meal so far.
Okay, so your mixed Paella has arrived. Tell us about it. Yeah, the Paella is finally here. So the mixed Paella has a whole bunch of different things. Let's take a look down at it. So you can see that there is chicken, we've got shrimp, we've got other kinds of seafood, we've got peas and it has got kind of a looks like to be a yellow type of curry sauce. Nice.
So let's take the first bite here.
This is my favorite Spanish food. The thing I like about it so much is that you have all of these different ingredients and it just has such a flavorful sauce on top of the rice. It is just so good.
So if Sam were to try the traditional Paella from Valencia that one would actually have chicken and rabbit because that is what the original recipe calls for. But we're not really used to eating rabbit so that is why we went with the mixed one that has chicken, some seafood and chorizo.
So quite a few restaurants in Madrid, and all throughout Spain have Paella on the menu, but the ones that really specialize in it have a special kind of pan. Some come take a look here. And you can see that it is made right in it and brought to your table. And they have the wooden guards on the end that basically probably protect you from getting burnt. Exactly.
Well, we certainly polished that off. So now let's talk about the price. Yeah, that was nice and filling. So in terms of price it can vary widely. In more expensive kind of like gourmet restaurants that really specialize in it we've seen it go up to thirty or thirty five Euros. We've never actually ate somewhere like that. The place we went to was eleven Euros. And we thought it was a really good value. We're both really full now. And I've also seen it as an appetizer in some smaller types of restaurants and you can expect maybe to pay seven or eight Euros for that.

Eating Tortilla de Patatas (Tortilla Española) in Madrid, Spain
Sometimes a certain cuisine really resonates with your taste buds. While staying in Madrid, Spain we found a little cafe nearby our hotel that specialized in breakfasts. We found ourselves alternating daily between Churros (Spanish doughnuts) and Tortilla (Spanish omelettes). This particular video is dedicated entirely to Tortilla which just happens to be Audrey's favorite Spanish meal.
Eating Tortilla de Patatas (Tortilla Española) in Madrid, Spain Travel Video Transcript:
So it is time for another breakfast here in Madrid. Today we are having the madrileño, which is the local breakfast that everybody likes in this city. And if you look down here you'll be able to see this is Tortilla. Which is a potato and egg type of dish. So it is kind of like a potato and egg omelette. And it is delicious. It comes with a side of bread. And I can't wait to dig in.
Oh la la. Look at that.
It's so good. It is so good.
This is your favorite breakfast. It really is. I've been eating it daily. And on my birthday I had it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. That is how much I like it.
Okay, so apparently how this dish is made is that the potatoes are first cooked in olive oil and then the egg is added and then it is just flipped over several times until it is done. It really is just like an omelette in a lot of ways.
So the Spanish Tortilla has nothing to do with the Mexican Tortilla. The Mexican one is just like one of those big round wraps that you use for Quesadillas and Burritos. But the Spanish Tortilla is completely different even though it shares the same name, so keep that in mind. And also while we're talking about the Spanish Tortilla it can be prepared a few different ways. Like the most simple one of them all is potato and egg but you can also start adding onions, peppers, ham, so you can get a little bit fancier.
Okay, so what is the price for this delicious breakfast. This tasty breakfast comes in at around four Euros and usually it comes with a juice. They didn't have any today but it did come with a coffee and bread. And it is a filling breakfast. It is a great way to start our day. And it is definitely one of the things we have the most while we're here in Madrid.

When you get tired of the often hectic pace of traveling in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam, the sleepy alternative of Laos awaits. With a slower pace of life and a rich culture, Laos offers a lot to potential visitors in terms of its attractions and cuisine. If you have to ask me to pick only one city in SE Asia that I could ever visit again it would be a close call between Chiang Mai, Thailand and Luang Prabang, Laos. Having visited the city several times before, I convinced Audrey – who was visiting for the first time – to stay for several weeks for an opportunity to relax and really appreciate all that the

When it comes to street food I have high standards. I've been to countries like Korea and Thailand where street food reigns supreme. Arriving in Lima, Peru I wasn't sure what to expect. Well, I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised. Peruvian street food is some of the best in all of Latin American. In fact, one cannot really say they've sampled Peruvian cuisine without trying favorites served up on street corners. Some of the Peruvian street food we tried includes Churros, Picarones, Turron, Tejas, Cremoladas, Alfajores and Chicha Morada to name just a few. If you've got a sweet tooth you'll find your taste-buds are in heaven over here.

6) A tour around Guilin, China at night including night markets, street food, pagodas and lakes 晚上桂林
Okay, so it's early morning here in Yangshuo. It's about eight o'clock and the town is still sleepy. There is hardly any people on the street, so we're going to go have breakfast at our favorite Israeli restaurant and then we're going to bike around the area.
We've rented a couple of bikes and we've decided to spend our last morning exploring around the countryside areas of Yangshuo. They were pretty cheap. Just under two dollars for each bike.
Today we are visiting a local hill tribe that just lives a few hours outside of Guilin and we've come here because this community is known for the women's long hair. They grow it out and it's almost a meter and a half long and we're actually going to be watching a performance where they spin their hair and wrap it up and show us how they wear it.
So tonight is our very last night in Yangshuo, a charming little town in Southwestern China, so we're going to show you around the main strip.
background music playing.
So our first stop is going to be the street food market. I haven't eaten in maybe two hours, so it's time to get a snack. So you're officially starving. Starving. Ravenous!
Here we are at the Longji Rice Fields which are located just outside of Guilin. We've had such good luck. Check out the weather and the views behind.
Background music playing.
So we are hiking up to one of the viewing platforms. This is going to be tough because it's like forty degrees outside and we're been told it'll take 30 minutes to one hour depending on our pace. So I'm trying to stay hydrated. Audrey is going to have to workout today.
So we finally made it to Guilin. We've been waiting for things to cool down and now that it is evening we're going to give you a little tour of the place.
Background music playing.
So I'm not sure we want to be walking through that tunnel when it gets a bit later in the day because it is pretty dark in there and there are no lights. And people aren't using their headlights.
Background music playing.
When I was in Guilin two years ago this area right here used to all be traditional homes. One of my favorite restaurants was here. A really good Chinese restaurant. I used to love wandering around here. Now it's just new development.
Background music playing.
So this is the Guilin main square. It gets really busy here at night. Lots of shops, restaurants, eateries. You can do it all here.
Background music playing.
Chinese singing.
Background music playing.
So we are now at the lake and the main attraction are the these two pagodas that light up at night.
Background music playing.
Oh, that mapo tofu looks so good. Really generous sized portion.
Mix it in with my rice a bit.
Please don't be course.
Oh hot! Oh hot!
Too hot to handle?
It's nice and spicy. Really flavorful. Fresh tofu.

Things to do in Laos Travel Guide, Top Attractions and Lao Cuisine
When you get tired of the often hectic pace of traveling in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam, the sleepy alternative of Laos awaits. With a slower pace of life and a rich culture, Laos offers a lot to potential visitors in terms of its attractions and cuisine. If you have to ask me to pick only one city in SE Asia that I could ever visit again it would be a close call between Chiang Mai, Thailand and Luang Prabang, Laos. Having visited the city several times before, I convinced Audrey – who was visiting for the first time – to stay for several weeks for an opportunity to relax and really appreciate all that the city has to offer. We spent our time exploring local temples such as Wat Xieng Thong, climbing hills such as Mount Phou si for great views of the city, visiting the night market, gormandizing on local Lao cuisine and learning how to cook Lao food. What really won us over though is the lack of street traffic, slower pace of life and charming colonial architecture. It's a city where you'll want to linger for days on end and if we decided to return to SE Asia - in the near future - it is a potential base for us. After reluctantly leaving Luang Prabang, we ended up in the capital city of Vientiane after taking the overnight bus. Although Vientiane, has a bit of a bum rap (some have called it the most boring capital city in Asia) we happen to think it's a decent stopover for a couple of nights. You can spend your days exploring museums and temples and your nights cooling off along the Mekong River (where you'll notice locals exercising and relaxing) before grabbing tasty intentional cuisine. The following is a top attractions travel guide offering a snapshot of the best things to do in Laos during your next vacation to the most chilled out country in SE Asia.

wn.com/Things To Do In Laos Travel Guide, Top Attractions And Lao Cuisine
When you get tired of the often hectic pace of traveling in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam, the sleepy alternative of Laos awaits. With a slower pace of life and a rich culture, Laos offers a lot to potential visitors in terms of its attractions and cuisine. If you have to ask me to pick only one city in SE Asia that I could ever visit again it would be a close call between Chiang Mai, Thailand and Luang Prabang, Laos. Having visited the city several times before, I convinced Audrey – who was visiting for the first time – to stay for several weeks for an opportunity to relax and really appreciate all that the city has to offer. We spent our time exploring local temples such as Wat Xieng Thong, climbing hills such as Mount Phou si for great views of the city, visiting the night market, gormandizing on local Lao cuisine and learning how to cook Lao food. What really won us over though is the lack of street traffic, slower pace of life and charming colonial architecture. It's a city where you'll want to linger for days on end and if we decided to return to SE Asia - in the near future - it is a potential base for us. After reluctantly leaving Luang Prabang, we ended up in the capital city of Vientiane after taking the overnight bus. Although Vientiane, has a bit of a bum rap (some have called it the most boring capital city in Asia) we happen to think it's a decent stopover for a couple of nights. You can spend your days exploring museums and temples and your nights cooling off along the Mekong River (where you'll notice locals exercising and relaxing) before grabbing tasty intentional cuisine. The following is a top attractions travel guide offering a snapshot of the best things to do in Laos during your next vacation to the most chilled out country in SE Asia.

2) Our first impressions of Vientiane, Laos

Scotland, is a country I've wanted to visit for years, and I finally was able to turn that into reality last year when I visited for the first time to take in the New Year's celebrations of Hogmanay in Edinburgh. As one of the most negotiable cities on foot that I've ever visited, Audrey and pounded the pavement marveling at the architecture, impressive castles and winter carnival events in the downtown area. When we need to warm up we popped into pubs to gormandize on Haggis, Neeps and Tatties while washing it down with a Hot Toddy. When we were in the mood for something a bit sweeter we decided to try a deep-fried Mars bar – a Scottish specialty. Although disgustingly unhealthy (essentially this a chocolate bar covered in batter and deep-fried) it tasted delicious and it ten times better than having a chocolate bar on its own. When we weren't trying Scottish Cuisine or wandering aimlessly down narrow streets, we decided to take a few day trips to check out other events and attractions. Our favorite being Loony Dook where a group of mad men, women and children wearing Halloween type costumes ran full steam ahead into the freezing cold Firth of Forth.
The true highlight of our time in Scotland was having the opportunity to explore the Scottish Highlands (including the Isle of Skye) with Haggis Adventure Tours. This road trip allowed highlighted some of the most scenic areas of the entire country where we couldn't put down our cameras.
When we weren't traveling we spent our time sampling as much Scottish food as we possibly could including a taste test of Irn Bru, Ginger Beer, Tablet, Haggis flavored chips, Scottish chocolate and Scottish Whiskey and more.
The following is a top attractions travel guide offering a snapshot of the best things to do in Scotland during your next vacation to one of my favorite countries in all of Europe.

There is no place on earth that embraces winter with as much enthusiasm as Quebec City. Having the chance to participate in the Winter Carnival festivities was an opportunity of a lifetime.

When we weren't exploring the Old Quarters of Quebec City we were off doing things like checking out the magnificent Ice Hotel or visiting with Bonhomme. Overall, it was a celebration of winter that we'll never forget. The following is a complete travel guide to experiencing Quebec City Carnaval.

When we weren't exploring the Old Quarters of Quebec City we were off doing things like checking out the magnificent Ice Hotel or visiting with Bonhomme. Overall, it was a celebration of winter that we'll never forget. The following is a complete travel guide to experiencing Quebec City Carnaval.
Welcome to Quebec City! We are here in the winter capital of the world. And it is carnival which means everyone is out embracing the cold and embracing the winter fun.
Alright, so what are we doing next? We're going to be doing something I've wanted to do for years. We're going to dog sledding! Woo!
Go, puppies go!
Steer it.
Go, puppies!
Good puppies.
Come on, puppies.
We're going ice fishing. We're going to be catching our lunch today.
Ready to fish? I'm ready. I've got my bait. I've got my fishing rod. Let's do this.
They ate your bait.
They ate it and didn't come up.
Let's go get some more.
That is not very good fishing.
I know. That's really bad fishing.
Okay, round two. Let's get ourselves a fish.
Oh, we have a fish and I feel kind of bad.
We got one.
I know I eat fish but I feel a little guilty right now.
Now it is time to cook it.
Lunch, right here.
Just warming up.
Here is our catch of the day. This is the big reveal. You can see the steam coming off.
That smells really nice. I know, I think they've put seasonings on it. Oh, yeah. That looks good.
Have it. Oh, I can't see. The smoke is going in my eyes. Alright, first bite.
Mmmm.
How is it? That's amazing.
Can you look at the camera?
They put some onions and spices inside and a little bit of butter. It's really good.
I think it is time for a romantic sleigh ride for two.
So right now we're getting ready to go inside Bonhomme's ice palace. Let's go visit him.
I even once went to Mexico. It's a little bit warm. When I got there I was about eight feet as I am usually and when I came back I was five foot four.
I melted a little bit.
Is that a video? Let's do something memorable.
Audrey. And you're from? Kingston, right?
Okay.
Hello, my friends from Kingston. We're with Audrey right now. We invite you to come to the biggest winter carnival in the world in Quebec City. I love you all and wish you a Joyeux Carnaval.
I love you all and wish you a Joyeux Carnaval.
Merci.
Bye, bye.
Bye, Bohomme.
Merci.
Alright, unfortunately all things come to an end. We've had an absolutely marvelous day out here at the carnaval. It's been so memorable. Now it's time to go home and warm up.

Things to do in Germany | Top Attractions Travel Guide
Things to do in Germany | Top Attractions Travel Guide
Germany was a country we fell in love with. Having spent a lot of time in SE Asia, we felt the need for a change of pace and Germany was just that. From urban hubs like Berlin to hidden gems like Freiburg, Germany offers a lot for those willing to explore and dig a little deeper.
We start off our top attractions travel guide to Germany by focusing on Berlin. Below are the top 25 things to consider doing in the city:
1) Berlin Wall - East Side Gallery
2) Brandenburg Gate
3) Tiergarten
4) MauerPark Flohmarkt (MauerPark Flea Market)
5) Friedrichshain
6) Currywurst
7) Reichstag building
8) Tempelhof
9) Museum Island
10) Holocaust Memorial
11) Charlottenburg Palace
12) Checkpoint Charlie
13) Alexanderplatz - Berlin TV Tower
14) Ritter Sport
15) Berlin Cathedral
16) Currywurst Museum
17) Ride a Bike
18) Spree river boat tour
19) Wurst sausage
20) Friedrichshain Flohmarkt (flea market)
21) German Breakfast
22) Cat Cafe
23) Schnitzel and Spaetzle
24) U-bahn and S-bahn
25) Turkish Food
Recently we had the opportunity to visit Europa-Park, the largest theme park in Germany and second most popular theme resort in all of Europe.
This was the perfect opportunity for us to rekindle our childhood passion for rides. With over eleven different roller coasters alone we quickly realized we had never been to such a big theme park.
What we found cool was that the theme park was divided into different European countries. If you can't visit all of Europe going to Europa Park is like getting little slivers of it all.
Accommodating up to 50,000 guests per day, we were fortunate we didn't come during peak season; however, it was still crowded.
Overall, the weather was perfect, the rides were fun and it is an experience we won't forget anytime soon.
This is a bit of a surprise. We have an eight hour wait for a flight in Frankfurt, so instead of just hanging around in the airport, which was our original plan, we decided to drop our bags off and come into the city.
That pretty much wraps up our little visit to Frankfurt. We spent maybe three or four hours just walking around and it was really nice to just see the city without much of an agenda.
I came here with quite low expectations to be perfectly honest. I had heard more or less this is just a financial hub but it ended up being quite charming here in Frankfurt and I'm definitely going to miss Germany. I've had a wonderful time traveling around the country.
We aren't having much luck with the weather today. It is really rainy here in Freiburg. It is Easter weekend but we are out an exploring and we want to show you the city. Let's go have a tour.
One of my first impressions of Freiburg is that it is such a great city to walk around in. That's all we've been doing so far. It's very picturesque. There are cobbled streets and it is also very historic.
Thankfully, the weather has shifted dramatically for the better. Earlier we had been rained out, so we had to head back into the hotel because it was cold and windy. Now we're seeing a few patches of blue skies, so we're going to keep exploring around Freiburg.
This is part of our Travel in Germany series. We're making a series of videos showcasing German culture, German arts, German foods, German religion and German people.

Overall, the weather was perfect, the rides were fun and it is an experience we won't forget anytime soon.
This is a bit of a surprise. We have an eight hour wait for a flight in Frankfurt, so instead of just hanging around in the airport, which was our original plan, we decided to drop our bags off and come into the city.
That pretty much wraps up our little visit to Frankfurt. We spent maybe three or four hours just walking around and it was really nice to just see the city without much of an agenda.
I came here with quite low expectations to be perfectly honest. I had heard more or less this is just a financial hub but it ended up being quite charming here in Frankfurt and I'm definitely going to miss Germany. I've had a wonderful time traveling around the country.
We aren't having much luck with the weather today. It is really rainy here in Freiburg. It is Easter weekend but we are out an exploring and we want to show you the city. Let's go have a tour.
One of my first impressions of Freiburg is that it is such a great city to walk around in. That's all we've been doing so far. It's very picturesque. There are cobbled streets and it is also very historic.
Thankfully, the weather has shifted dramatically for the better. Earlier we had been rained out, so we had to head back into the hotel because it was cold and windy. Now we're seeing a few patches of blue skies, so we're going to keep exploring around Freiburg.
