Stunning Photography to Inspire You to Visit Canada: " 2017 Country of the Year"

Canada: the True North Strong and Free

Of course, I am a little biased when it comes to the beautiful country of Canada! I was born there, in a city 3 hours east of Calgary. Medicine Hat, Alberta was the place, but B.C. is home. I spent most of my growing up years in metro Vancouver. I consider it my hometown, and miss it greatly

If you don't know it already, Canada has been named 2017 "Country of the Year"by Lonely Planet. I was so thrilled Canada received this vote, it has so many amazing destinations to visit.

In this post , I am sharing my travel photography from western Canada: Vancouver BC, Whistler, and Banff. These breathtaking sights are some of the best in the world!

The colors are stunning. I love everything about Canada especially the stark difference in the cities which are amazing and nature which is awe inspiring.

It all does look so lovely! I have been to Canada 3 or 4 times in my life. We're hoping to take our kids to Niagara falls this year but we must get our passports first. I'd love to take them to Quebec too and tour more of the country while we're there.

I never cared for Canada until a friend showed me pictures of her trip there. I fell in love and your amazing pictures are making me want to go even more. Hoping to go soon.

I've always been obsessed with photos of Banff and it's one of the places I'd really love to visit. Hopefully by next year, I'd get to visit Canada. Love the photos!
