This past weekend, Nick and I joined two of our friends for a little winter getaway a few hours from Halifax. The main goal of our trip was to enjoy a ski day at Wentworth, but we also found some time to explore Pugwash, the little corner of Nova Scotia where our Airbnb was located. […]
My Experience with the Halifax Brewery Market Box.
If you’ve been following my Instagram for awhile now, you’ll know that my absolute favourite thing over the last few months has been the Halifax Brewery Market Box.
