This above picture in the Kawarthas isnโt me today. Just like the vast majority of Canadians, โ Iโm staying home except for essentials. In a time like this, you can almost envision staring off into the future and dreaming about travel in a post-COVID world. Where will we go and what will travel be like? Although we canโt be there in person, we can dream about time well spent on any one of the lakes in Peterborough and the Kawarthas region of Ontario. Many parts of Ontario provide ample amounts of space.
If we close our eyes, maybe we can hear the water slapping against the rocks. Maybe we can smell the trees. Maybe we can see the cotton candy sunsetsโฆ
Although we are feeling grounded and itโs not fun, Iโve pledged to stay #HomeTodayTravelTomorrow. The hope is that staying home now means we can travel sooner in the future. The goal is that we will have helped halt the spread of Covid-19. If we all do our part now, we can all enjoy time together on the lake one day!

If youโre home and you want to show it off, make sure you check out the brand new apparel collab by Travelzoo Canada andย Peace Collectiveย showing off a powerful message we can all get behind: Stay Home Canada, along with city-specific versions tailored to show love for Toronto, and other cities across Canada (you too Calgary!).

If you got this far, answer me this: Who will you hug first when you get the chance to do so? I havenโt seen my mom since February. Her house is the first place Iโm going to head once itโs safe.
