The cool winter weather is only a few months away for countries up North.

Due to the Covid-19 outbreak, we may have to be patient and postpone our trips until it’s safe to travel again. However, the declining number of Covid-19 cases, as well as the travel bubbles formed with other countries, are making us feel hopeful that perhaps leisure travel might not be too far away.
