Meet the family

Hi, we’re the Monizes

A family of five (plus two dogs) who decided the best way to see Canada was slowly, in a fifth wheel, with snack supplies for a small army.

Who’s on board

πŸ‘¨ David

Driver, planner, and chief griller. Believes every campground has a story.

πŸ‘© The rest of the crew

Three kids who rate every stop by playground quality and swimming potential.

πŸΆπŸ• The dogs

The true trip bosses. Ride shotgun (figuratively), patrol every site, and demand snacks at 4pm sharp.

We started Monizes Making Memories to keep a record for ourselves β€” and to help other families who want to do the same thing without reinventing the wheel (or the fifth wheel). Everything here is real: real routes, real prices, real leash laws, real tantrums.
