This was our view of the Athabasca River at one of viewpoints we stopped at along the Icefields Parkway in Jasper National Park. Rob went all the way next to the river to get a better shot, I stayed a bit back behind, the entire view is so beautiful! . . . #jasper #alberta #snowpeak #river #winter #rockiemountains #canadianrockies #canadianroadtrip #roadtrip #icefieldsparkway #jaspernationalpark #lovetheoutdoors #outdoorslife #travelaroundthegalaxy #travel #naturephotography #him #travelphotography #letsgoadventuring #frombehind #nofilter #amazingviews
Chefchouen is known as the Blue City, because of the beautiful blue and white that the city's buildings are painted, but from the rooftop of our hotel, it showed off many other colours as the sun set over Morocco's Rif Mountains. . . . #travel #morocco #chefchaouen #sunset #rifmountains #africa #northafrica #mountains #beautifulcities #moroccotravel #beautifulplaces #exploringtheworld #bluecity #sunsets #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Exploring the Pink Lakes of Las Coloradas was a bucket list item that we crossed off in late 2018. Located just north of Valladolid along the Gulf of Mexico, it was one of the most unique places we've ever been. . . . #travel #mexico #yucatan #rialagartos #lascoloradas #pinklakes #bucketlist #beautifulplaces #riolagartos #visityucatan #gulfofmexico #exploringtheglobe #vivemexico #nature #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Burano is one of the many islands that make up the city of Venice. The island is traditionally known for its lacemaking. It stands out because many of the buildings are painted in bright, vibrant colours. . . . #travel #italy #venice #exploringtheglobe #burano #venato #italia #city #italytravel #reflection #beautifulplaces #island #boat #colourful #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy
We visited Peyto Lake in early October, after the first snowfall in the Canadian Rockies. This left everything covered in a fresh blanket of snow. It was cold, but the lake had only begun to freeze, so it was easy to see that winter was quickly taking over the landscape. . . . #travel #banff #canada #peytolake #parkscanada #banffnationalpark #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #imagesofcanada #livelovecanada #thegreatoutdoors #lakes #winter #nature #frozen #photography #travelphotography #naturephotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Throwback to last year when I had to go visit Miami for 36 hours. Spent most of my time there wandering around Wynnwood, the graffiti part of Miami. This picture was taken at the abandoned RC Cola factory. This abandoned building is next to Wynnwood Brewing Company (Miami's first craft brewery) which was a good place to stop for a mid-afternoon taste of some of their beers. . . . #travel #miami #florida #wynnwood #tbt #throwback #throwbackthursday #art #streetartchat #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #RCcola #travelusa #visittheusa #grafitti #streetart #graffitiart #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Cannon Beach is one of the most popular destinations on the Oregon coast. It's most famous landmark is Haystack Rock, which towers over the beach below, slowly being eroded away by the ocean waves. . . . #travel #oregon #oregoncoast #haystackrock #cannonbeach #travelusa #usa #america #nature #pacificocean #visitoregon #pacificnorthwest #natureisamazing #greatoutdoors #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #beach #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
When we visited Havana we stayed in the old city, a few blocks form the Malecon. We enjoyed being centrally located, and were able to walk most places. Cuba is a colourful and bright country. Despite years of neglect, it's easy to look past the state of the buildings and see so much beauty in this beautiful country. . . . #travel #cuba #havana #lahabana #caribbean #colonial #habanavieja #travelcuba #visitcuba #beautifulplaces #balcony #colonial #citystreets #exploringtheglobe #city #photography #travelphotography #cityphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Lake Louise was our favourite destination of 2018. We had only planned on doing a short walk around the lake, but instead decided to follow some other hikers up the trail towards the glaciers, and it was the best decision of our trip. We made it to this spot high above Lake Louise and we were surrounded by 360 degree views of mountains and glaciers. It was amazing! . . . #travel #canada #lakelouise #banff #parkscanada #banffnationalpark #nature #beautifulplaces #greatoutdoors #exploringtheglobe #photography #naturephotography #alberta #travelalberta #imagesofcanada #livelovecanada #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
Valladolid is a very nice and laid back Colonial city. One of the things that most visitors do is taking a ride on bicycle to explore the city and it’s surroundings. If you are doing it, make sure that you do it with style... . . . #yucatanpeninsula #travelgram #travelphotography #valladolid #yucatan #mexico #colonial #bycicle #cruisearound #exploring #travel #letsgoadventuring #travelaroundthegalaxy #lifeisaride #pueblomagico✨ #coolplaces #smallcity #yellow #lifeisbeautiful #amarilloazul #bicicleta #bici #adventuretime #cityatnight
The Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza is so much more than just a single photogenic Pyramid. The ruins sprawl outwards into the jungles. There are many other amazing structures like this one here, which was covered in carvings and a snake. . . . #travel #mexico #yucatan #chichenitza #mayanruins #yucatanpeninsula #exploringtheglobe #worldwonder #beautifulplaces #mayan #vivemexico #unesco #archaeology #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
We visited an off the beaten track Waterfalls in Chiapas in the small town of Roberto Barrios, located just south of Palenque. We saw no more than 10 people in the few hours we were there, and had hundreds of small waterfalls to ourselves! It was a peaceful place to spend a few hours in the middle of a long day of driving. . . . #travel #waterfalls #chiapas #meZico #palenque #cascadasrobertobarrios #cascadas #waterfall #beautifulplaces #travelmexico #vivemexico #exploringtheglobe #nature #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring
