But then there’s also this relationship with the countryside, where a couple of times a year you’ll see 2 million pilgrims walking through the city, some of them on horseback, some of them walking on their knees, to follow the Virgin of Zapopan as she goes from the Guadalajara Cathedral all the way over to Zapopan. We talk about some of the local markets like San Juan de Dios Market (St Johnny) and Paul’s favorite market Mercado de Abastos which focuses more on food.

Hear about driving the Dalton Highway from Fairbanks to the Arctic Ocean as the Amateur Traveler talks to Erik Smith about his journey. Of course, if you have time you should get to Denali National Park, but Erik also recommends the University of Alaska Museum of the North, the City of Northpole Alaska, Chena Hot Springs Resort, and the open-air museum at Pioneer Park. There are places to stay around Coldfoot Camp including a couple of AirBnbs near there where Erik stayed: Arctic Getaway Bed and Breakfast and Boreal Lodge. mp3) Preparing for the Dalton Highway Fairbanks to Coldfoot Fairbanks, Alaska Explore Fairbanks University of Alaska Museum of the North Pioneer Park Riverboat Discovery Alaska State Railroad Museum (Nenana) City of Northpole Alaska

Banff National Park is Canada’s first National Park. Locals tend to go to a place called Kanaskis and Kanaskis is about a 30-minute drive closer to Calgary than Banff is equally as beautiful with tons of hiking, also ski hills, lots of cross country tracks, some nice resorts, some nice camping options, some great glamping options in a teepee or a trappers tent.
