  • so here’s the thing about friends…

    I have been fortunate enough in my life to meet some pretty rad people. And I am not just talking about during my travels, though you people are super rad too. I mean in my every day life, the ones back home who despite my life of wandering, continue to…

  • passport rant

    So here I am, about to move to another country, again, and as I am preparing all the paperwork and getting all the documents, I realize something. I realize that my passport is set to expire next November… Now obviously this wouldn’t be a problem at the moment for most,…

  • #hashtag

    Those who know me well, know I hated hashtags not too long ago. Something about the way people used them just rubbed me the wrong way. I guess I never really understood the use of them because truthfully, the people I saw using them on Instagram (I don’t have Twitter)…

  • a change will do you good

    My life is about to dramatically change in a matter of months and though I am fairly nervous, the excitement and happiness has definitely overridden my nerves. Soon I will be trading mountains for ocean, cold weather for hot. Some people probably think I am crazy. They thought I was…

  • aurora borealis ; is this really my life…

    And what really matter is that she found herself again, among the lights in the sky and the ground underneath her. She had been waiting for a sign, and this was it. Life is what you make of it and she realized just what a great life she has been…

  • i am a nomad, a wanderer

  • the sound of a new place

    When you live somewhere new, you get used to all the sounds of that new place eventually, over time. You become accustomed to the creaks in the house, the sounds that frequent outside your place of residence, and even the noise your roommates make. I write this as I lay…

  • in the silence

    I have been meaning to write a post on here for awhile, but to be honest, I haven’t been up to it. I wish I could say that I have spent the past few weeks going on adventures and being too busy to write and tell you of all the…

  • the life of a solivagant – GoPro TimeLapse Road Trip Across Canada : Toronto to Whitehorse

    When I drove from Toronto to Whitehorse, I had a GoPro camera suction cupped to the inside of my windshield facing outwards; thanks to Ryan generously lending it to me to do so. I set the camera up to see what I saw as I drove, and take a picture…

  • yukon wildlife preserve

    Living up North in Canada, I expected to see a lot more wildlife in my daily living. Unfortunately I was wildly mistaken. In fact, I barely saw much wildlife on the drive across Canada. I am quite disappointed, as living just outside of Toronto, it’s not often I see many…
