Let's be honest, we all find it difficult to get ourselves out of our toasty cinnamon bun beds during the winter months, and here in Alberta, it seems like those months go on forever. However, this could be the year you conquer your fear of the freezing outdoors. There's no need to tuck your hiking …
I'm going to be honest here, did I know what sustainability was about four years ago? Not really. I'd heard the word thrown around plenty but I thought it was another millennial phrase we'd taken and claimed for ourselves with a different meaning, like woke or salty. Now it's something we read about in the …

Hey world & Happy Easter! ❤ I hope that everyone is staying safe and healthy during these scary and uncertain times. I'm sure that since your first day of being stuck in quarantine or social isolation you've pondered on how you will spend all these extra hours that you've always wanted and finally gained due …

I'm in love. How beautiful are these landscapes where it's winter up in the mountains but autumn amongst the trees? Where the air is so fresh but not too cold and all you can hear is the leaves rustling from just a slight wind. I've never seen anything quite like it... This was possibly my …

I've just come back from a short drive around a few of mine and Jonny's favourite local spots in the national park. Today is definitely one of the first days where you can feel the shift between seasons in your bones. The leaves are starting to toast into beautiful yellow and auburn tones but there's …
This girl finally got her ass out of Canada and started exploring some of the U S of A. I've been wanting to go to America for such a long time, and seeing as I live over that neck of the woods now I thought it would be stupid not to. America is a weird …
One of my biggest concerns when I started travelling was how my anxiety disorder would get in the way of the gigantic list of things that I wanted to see and do around the world. The prospect that it could stop me from making any of my dreams come true absolutely terrified me. How could …
Long time no speak! I'm back, for anyone that's still out there. Seven weeks in Canada and I finally feel like I've got my little Canadian life in order so I thought it was time to hit the Macbook and start blogging again... Is there anything more wonderful than that first blissful shower you take …
I had a two hour train journey home from work Thursday evening, I'd finished my book, was full of coffee and there was a plug socket right next to me. This meant it was time to write. I've been thinking a lot lately about what it actually means to 'live in the moment'. Naturally, as …

It's been six months since I graduated. Sometimes I completely forget that university was a thing that I did, but I had a little reminder recently and thought to myself 'boy was that a long ride...' I studied at uni for four years in total; a three year undergraduate degree in Film and Creative Writing …
London doesn't stop, but I sure need to. While walking around town a few weeks ago with my mum, she turned around and said to me "why are you rushing?!", and actually, I had no clue as to why I charging around at 30mph when I had no where in particular to be. The past …
I never used to see the point in baths. I had the same outlook on them as Chandler Bing, "So what you just sit there stewing in your own filth?". A shower is efficient, refreshing, easy. A bath takes too long to run, and what if after all of that bubble-fuss the temperature just isn't …
