I’ve enjoyed the thrill of a rollercoaster ever since my first trip to Disneyland, when I barely met the minimum height requirements. So when an invitation to the launch of Canada’s longest and fastest mountain coaster appeared in my inbox, I was ready to start packing my bags.

The coaster finally opened on Monday, May 15, and I was among the first to climb aboard after the ribbon cutting…

When I moved to Amsterdam in 2018, I enrolled in Dutch classes and began mentally translating every word of Dutch I saw, from street signs to menus to the aisles at grocery stores. The language sometimes baffled me. I was particularly perplexed when I started noticing the word “kapsalon” on the menu boards of shawarma shops around town. I was sure kapsalon meant hair salon. Was this a looming snack stand–barbershop collaboration trend?
The ultimate Canadian summer vacation awaits in Edmonton and Jasper. With 18 hours of daily sunlight in North America’s northernmost metropolis, you can pack your days with city fun before heading into the mountains for a restorative outdoor adventure in the spectacular Jasper National Park.
