Whistler is a world-class ski hill and for good reason. The combination of Whistler and Blackcomb offers an obscene amount of skiable terrain. It is right in my backyard, less than 3 hours by car from my house (and just over 2 hours by car from Vancouver to Whistler). But when it comes to taking […]

About the Author

Lindsay Nieminen author of Carpe Diem OUR way

Lindsay Nieminen

I help families travel boldly.

Whether that’s exploring Jordan’s epic sights, road-tripping through Central America, or finding adventure here at home in Canada, I believe kids don’t hold you back — they give you a better reason to go.

I specialize in:

  • Adventure travel with kids
  • Travel to misunderstood destinations
  • Realistic family itineraries for kids of all ages

When I’m not traveling, I’m likely driving someone to practice or running a food tour company in Amman.

Welcome to Carpe Diem OUR Way — where we seize the day as a family because time is not promised.
