Coming Home: What I Learned
I’m back! Christmas was amazing, and I appreciated being with my family so much more after four months away from them. Skype is great, but it’s just not as good as the real thing (as opposed to Tofurky…yum!). I’ve been in hibernation mode for the last few days, but I’ve managed to crank out a … Continue reading
Home sweet home
After a sleepless night on loud planes and in busy airports, I’m home and it feels so good. Merry Christmas! Home is where the cats are.
I’m coming home!
This is it! I’m currently in the Honolulu airport, ready to fly back to Canada. I can’t believe it’s over. I’ve already cried and I’m anticipating more waterworks as the plane pulls away. I can’t even imagine staying in one place for more than a few weeks at a time, never mind a few months! … Continue reading
Mele kalikimaka from Hawaii!
I’m in Hawaii! I haven’t updated in a while, I know, but I’ve been having fun in the sun! In the mean time, I wrote an article for the Oakville Beaver about my adventurous times so far, read that here. So far in Hawaii I’ve shot a gun (for the first time), hiked a mountain … Continue reading
In an Aeroplane Over the (lake): Skydiving in Taupo, New Zealand
I jumped out of a plane at 12,000 feet this morning. No, really! Thankfully, I was strapped to someone who knew what they were doing. There was also a parachute involved apparently, though I was too focused on the tiny little Monopoly houses below me to notice. This, my friends, is the story of my … Continue reading
Music’s my imaginary friend
I’ve been slacking a bit when it comes to the music section of this site, but that’s because I’ve been busy! Also, researching/finding new music is harder when internet costs almost as much as you’re paying for accommodation. Uggh. Anyway, I’ve added to that section with thousands of words about the music I’m currently lurving … Continue reading
Dolphin Encounter, NZ
While I usually spend my mornings sluggishly checking my emails or eating last night’s dessert, this morning was different! I got up bright and early, put on a wetsuit, and jumped into the Pacific Ocean! It turns out the shock of freezing cold ocean water is better than coffee when it comes to waking you … Continue reading

Quick update from Queenstown!
I’ve written a blog for the Oakville Beaver about my time in New Zealand so far. Read it here.
Checking in from Franz Josef, NZ!
Hey there! Just thought I’d give a quick update about my whereabouts…the title says it all! I’m planning on writing a longer blog about my time in Melbourne and my first few days in New Zealand, but it turns out that the wifi in the middle of nowhere tends not to be the best. Give … Continue reading
