My Travel Guide to Ottawa

Ottawa is the capital of Canada. It is the fourth most populous city in Canada. Founded in 1826 as Bytown, and incorporated in 1855 with its current name, the city of Ottawa has evolved into a center of politics and technology in Canada. The high-tech and public services industries are the biggest drivers of the economy. It has been rated one of the cleanest cities in the world, signifying the effort and attitudes of its population and its government towards the city. Ottawa was originally settled by people of Irish and French Canadian origin but soon grew to be multicultural. The architecture of the city is quite attractive and is inspired by European cities. Ottawa hosts a variety of annual events.

My passion is to help people who love travelling and are looking for the ideal travel tips on destinations all around the world. Like a lot of people, I hoped travel would solve everything. I set off - convinced my trip would be all about incredible, life-changing moments; ones full of sunsets and rainbows and meaningful experiences. Instead, I stumbled headfirst into a disaster.
