Kurt From Canada

Welcome to Kurt From Canada

I'm Kurt Norris — A location-independent Canadian heralding from the great province of Ontario intent on exploring the world.

For the past 10 years, I have juggled traveling to exotic locations and exploring my own home country while growing my freelance writing career. My journey has brought me to over 20 countries, with some of my favourites being Indonesia, Greece, Portugal, and Guatemala.

 

When not traveling to international havens, I explore my own country from my home base in Southern Ontario. Between my local knowledge and my practice of slow international travel, I am here to give you insider advice on how to best explore Canada and beyond.
