With my two boys, I’ve been road-tripping across Canada and the USA for four years. I did the research and made the mistakes. I’m now here to help you plan the perfect family road trip, but most importantly, to help you spend less time planning your itineraries with my pre-made and detailed itineraries.

Hi, Iโ€™m Emilie! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I grew up in Quebec City and now call the Canadian Rockies home. After two cross-country road trips with my young kids, Iโ€™ve learned what makes a Canadian road trip truly unforgettable.

I’m on a mission to explore every Canadian province (and hopefully all three territories!) with my kids and inspire other families to discover more of our beautiful country along the way.

The world is big and beautiful, but so is Canada. And there’s still so much of it left for us to explore!
