Have Bucket List, Will Travel

Do you have a bucket list full of places you'd love to visit in your glamper? 

Ours is filling up fast. By the time our glamper is ready to roll, we might need a bigger bucket! 

Here's a travel destination to get us started:


Tofino, Vancouver Island, BC


From our home in Sidney on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, the small, coastal town of Tofino is only a few hours' drive north--ideal for newbie glampers like us. The wilderness here is just about as Beautiful British Columbia as you can get! Ever heard of Long Beach? Or the famed West Coast Trail? Or Pacific Rim National Park? Well, this is it! Orca and grey whales, hot springs, and the wide open Pacific ocean...Mother Nature doesn't get much better than this. Hey, don't forget your surf-board, baby!

Bella Pacifica Campground had me at the first glamper-themed photo on their too-cool-for-words website. We'll be right at home there--I'll even bring along my guitar for a little campfire croonin'. At night we'll fall asleep to the sound of the big surf crashing on the sands of MacKenzie Beach...

and first thing in the morning we'll race to see who's brave enough to test the cold waters first. Surf's up!

Good thing my kids are homeschooled, 'cause we'll probably want to stay awhile!
