So here I am in Chicago. After an overnight 13 hour bus journey from Niagara to Chicago, the plan was to get just one night in a hostel to get some shut eye as Ive had no sleep in the last 24hrs, it is almost impossible to sleep on the bus as not only are the buses generally alway full so you have to share your seat so cant spread out and limited in movement as the seats are quite close together, aswell as, despite it being warm outside the buses blast air condit...

So here I am in Niagara Ontario (on the Canadian side) . And what a s*** tip this place is. Niagara the town is very run down and the place is very random, with some posh neighbourhood and the rest shanty, rundown, dirty neighbourhoods which cars that look like they have been dumped but are still being used, brick and brack in the front lawns, and the place is full of white trash, homeless looking people. This changes the closer to the falls you get and it become...

We got the ferry over to Ontario island and spe...

The hostel is basically a medium sized house, in a small village, giving it a laid back feel about it. Despite hiking an...

So here I am in Fort Coulonge, just off the Ottawa river, just 2 hrs drive from Ottawa city centre. The accommadation is not really in Fort Coulonge but actually located in Davidson, which just doesnt have the same ring does it, so they call the hostel Fort Coulonge, which is suitable as the hostel is breathtaking, a mexican style lodge cabin overlooking a pebbly beach, just off the Ottawa river. It is really out in the stick here, you need a vehicle to get to...
