We enjoyed a relaxing stay at the Viamede Resort in Kawartha Lakes, while enjoying a variety of activities. The staff at the front desk were friendly and welcoming; we got a run down of all the activities available at the resort when we signed in.

Hiking the Trails of Killbear

Killbear provincial park
While driving to Northern Ontario we can see a drastic scenic change from rolling hills with farms and fields found in Southern Ontario to rugged, rocky landscapes with rocks and forests. This geological change is prominent when we visit Ontario Parks such as Killbear.

Win a line of Kandoo products

kandoo products
Kandoo Flushable Wipes are a summer travel essential for parents. I remember travelling wasn't easy for us when we were potty training our children. Kandoo Flushable wipes do not require any rolling or ripping, which makes it easy to use and perfect for little hands. I like that it comes in travel sizes that fit into any suitcase, back pack or handbag.

DesignAgency Incorporates Authentic Style at New Nando's Locations

Nando's restaurants in toronto
Nando's, a South African-based chain of fast-casual chicken restaurants founded in Johannesburg in 1987, operates approximately 1,200 outlets around the world. Each site is unique, as the founders' focus on local style, international design and African artistry. As its corporate credo states: "Life's too short for bland." At the company's centre lies its own collision of cultures – an Afro-Portuguese mash-up best represented by its signature dish of butterfly-cut, flame-grilled chicken immersed in spicy PERi-PERi sauce. We really enjoy the unique flavours of Nando's chicken.
