In this episode of Big Blend Radio’s "Journey Jukebox" travel podcast, travel writer Lisa Evans takes listeners on an exploration of Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada’s first incorporated city. From its stunning Victorian architecture and vibrant Area 506 entertainment district—crafted from refurbished shipping containers—to the geological marvels of the Stonehammer Geopark and the powerful tides of the Bay of Fundy, Saint John offers an unforgettable blend of history, innovation, and natural beauty.
The conversation also highlights the city’s British and French influences, the family-friendly educational experiences that travel provides, and the dynamic Canadian music scene that reflects the country’s cultural diversity. Whether you’re drawn to heritage, science, or the arts, Saint John is a destination that invites discovery.
