Melody Wren

I have been published in Fodor's Travel, World Nomads, Canadian Traveller Magazine, CAA, Caribbean Beat Magazine, Canadian Jewish News, Family Fun Canada, and Waypoints Global Magazine, to mention a few. I live in Canada and consider my age (over 50) a gift in my travels. I bring wisdom and experience and a major ‘if not now, when’ attitude with heavy lashings of humor, which is required in any kind of travel. I learned how to paddleboard in Hawaii, snorkeled through the Galapagos Islands, glacier trekked in the Canadian Arctic, danced around a fire in Africa, learned how to make the perfect tiramisu in Florence, Italy, kayaked amongst spawning salmon in Ontario, snow-shoed in Colorado, sailed in the British Virgin Islands ... and so much more. Most recently I snorkeled beside whale sharks in the Baja Sur, an incredible wonder-filled experience.
