Dental Care in Canada – How much it costs, How it works
Because of a badly treated cavity, I finally stayed in Montreal for two months – because the radio showed even more problems than I thought. Let me tell you about the care I received and the fees Why get treatment in Canada? Because I’m just there right now. But after the excellent care I received, I thought it was a good choice. I know I can’t generalize, the quality of care obviously depends on the dentist but for someone with a lot of dental problems, I found the care experience much more pleasant and effective in Canada. Anesthetics are used to make the experience as painless as possible Dentists take…

Staying in Canada: Do you need a Visa or an ETA?
If you plan to stay in Canada for less than 6 months, good news, you don’t need a visa! If you arrive in Canada by car, train, bus or boat, you don’t need anything, except your passport of course. If you arrive by plane, you will need to obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before your arrival. The procedure is very simple and is done online. The most “critical” point is to make the request on the official website. As for many other countries, there are “fake sites” that will charge you a much higher amount than the official site. Here is some information to know about the AVE procedure.…

Cosmetics to buy in Canada and where to buy
Today, I bring you to discover some of the top Canadian (or non-Canadian) cosmetic brands to bring back on your trip from Canada. Some natural products were recommended to me by Karen, who has been living in Quebec for several years (thank you very much) This list will certainly evolve, so a tip to choose THE product to buy is to look for the “look” logo in the stores. If they are on the “allure awards” list, you can buy them with your eyes closed. You will see that in this list, there are a lot of skin care products (more than make-up) because skin care products in America are,…

Today I will list all the things we took with us on our trip to Iceland in April 2019. This post is NOT sponsored Weather in Iceland in April I remind the weather conditions for those who do not know this country yet: in April, it is between 1°C and 8°C and we are often confronted with snow (rarer), rain (often) and wind (up to 50km/h). Being rather well equipped thanks to the varied temperatures during our world tour, we still had to buy some extra gear to face the rain, humidity and Icelandic wind. Why not buy on the spot? You will see, on the spot, the prices will…

[Test & Reviews] The Best Face Care & Spas in Lisbon (Portugal)
Today, I bring you to discover the best facials & spas (which I have personally tested) in Lisbon. To know that they are the best in the city, I simply trusted the hundreds of reviews left here and there on the Internet and tested them myself 😀 Why is it interesting to do a facial in Lisbon? (or in Portugal in general) ? Because the same treatment, of the same quality, would have cost +50% or even twice as much in France. You can therefore treat yourself to luxury treatments without (too) breaking your PEL. Note: for those of you traveling around the world of spas, I have written similar…

Practical guide of Lisbon (Portugal)

I know that there are already a lot of practical guides about Lisbon, but I am writing you a guide to my liking.

It’s a city of hills and cobblestone streets, so quickly forget about strollers, pumps and…

Digital Nomad: Assessment after 2.5 months in Morocco (Marrakech, Essaouira, Sahara Desert)
We just spent 2.5 months in Morocco! It’s the first time we’ve stayed so long in one country (since our departure around the world in June 2016). A small assessment is necessary. Why Morocco? Digital nomads often choose to flee the winter, because they can choose their destination and few people like the greyness and cold There aren’t many destinations where you can spend the winter in warmth, without breaking the bank. Between Asia and North Africa, the choice was very easy for me. I can no longer stand pollution in Asia, my skin suffers from it, and to find a more or less human face, I have to go…
