I traveled solo to Canada and it was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I spent three months between Edmonton, Banff, and Calgary, and honestly… the landscapes completely blew my mind. Everything feels so safe — there’s literally no sense of insecurity, even when you’re on your own. And the best part is that I didn’t even pay for accommodation, because I was doing volunteer house-sitting and pet-sitting. Banff especially was magical. Canada is definitely a place I’d go back to a thousand times

Banff feels completely safe. Everyone who lives there is a ski bum. The food is good. The wildlife is incredible. Spas are on point!! I was there for work, but I never wanted to leave. Would go back in a heart beat.

I drove from Calgary all the way to Yellowknife in September with the hope to catch northern lights, I enjoyed the scenery very much but I would suggest u drive with someone or caravan, just in case if your car broke down, because you are really in the middle of nowhere
