I honestly was caught off guard when I went to school in Indiana, and realized that people dreamed about visiting Niagara Falls. For me, it was basically just my backyard.
I grew up (and still live in) western NY, which is just over the border from Ontario, Canada. So I’m lucky enough to be able to drive to another country (and back!) in a day. I’ve mostly just explored Ontario, Canada, but I have lots of plans for other places in Canada to visit in the future!
