    Hipcamp.com – It’s like airbnb but for camping!

You might want to make hipcamp.com a top destination because this site features the glamping experiences to coo you back to nature.

    Get outside

    Hipcamps motto is “Get more people outside”. The options of Hipcamp range from bring your own tents to fully serviced glamping setups with hosts around the world, in particular the Unites States where the camping app originates. If you’re looking to camp around California, Hipcamp definitely has your number.

    Be a Hipcamp host

    If you’re someone out there with the minimum two acres of land to be a listed site on the Hipcamp app, you could earn some extra cash renting out your yard for camping. Indeed you could probably charge people to hang out with your chickens as like Airbnb, Hipcamp is also a tourism marketplace of unique experiences for hire.

    The Templeton, Vancouver BC

    “Jukebox-lined eatery with free-run eggs & breakfast faves, plus organic burgers & classic shakes.”

    Whenever I’m in Vancouver, visiting the Templeton is top of my list of priorities. Old school diner serving up tasty comfort food and vegetarian dishes, this iconic eatery is nestled in among the tattoo parlors, hotels, hostels, and theatres of Granville street. Near the Granville Bridge, it’s up the street from nights out at Vancouver night life destinations like the Commodore Ballroom, Orpheum Theatre, Cinematheque etc. This area is very busy to visit! Usually I get off the train on Granville at the Hudsons Bay, and start working my way through the crowds lining the busy street. This area is a lot of fun but after so much walking and activity, I just need to sit in a booth, chill and eat the best macaroni ever. Visit http://thetempleton.ca/

  • Common Loaf Bake Shop Tofino, BC

    Common Loaf Bake Shop Tofino, BC

    The winter of 2004 I dwelled in a camper in the rainforests of Tofino BC. It was one of the rainiest winters on record and this meant for a couple weeks we were paddling from our doorstep to the main road. In cold, rainy environments, the best thing to do is crank the heat and eat pastries. There were several cool business’ around the area at that time which contributed to Tofino’s legendary cool factor, appealing to surfer’s, outdoorsy types and traveler’s the world over. Common Loaf Bake Shop was then and still is now keeping the coast cozy with many of my in house comfort favourites. 15 years on, their veggie rolls are still calling me back to this popular Canadian destination and a top local Tofino bakery.
