Explore Magazine's Live The Adventure Podcast

Did you know that nearly two million Canadians travel to New Hampshire every year? And did you also know the state is less than a three-hour drive from Montreal, or a day's drive from Toronto?
Or just a short jaunt from Boston Logan International Airport?
I needed to know more about this off-radar vacation destination. So I reached out to Kris Neilsen, at Visit New Hampshire.
Yes, it's easy to get to—but that's only one piece of the pie. Within New Hampshire, visitors revel in a wonderland of mountains, forest, lakes and seacoast... while touring charming towns with vibrant culture and deep history.
(Plus, some other stuff you'll be even VERY surprised to learn.)
Why are we all going to the Granite State? Tune in to learn more about YOUR next summer vacation destination.
