The Best Things I did in India

November 7, 2019 ||

INDIA. Where to even begin? I spent almost six weeks in the north of India this summer and man did a lot happen. I spent more money then I meant to, got groped several times, had three seemingly days-long panic attacks and got very very ill. But I also had some of the most amazing […]

Bali Really is the Best

October 28, 2019 || Leave a Comment

I had the best intentions of planning out my ten days on Bali to really maximize my time. I thought I’d make a list of all the places I wanted to see, prioritize it, pre-book some cool accommodation, etc. Instead, I arrived on the island with my first night booked at a hostel in Seminyak […]

Back to Australia After 20 Years

May 17, 2019 || Leave a Comment

Australia is so much a part of my family’s history. We lived here for a year when I was three and it feels like that was the catalyst that made me and my sister fall in love with travel. I was too young to attend school, but I remember a surprising amount about this year […]

A Weekend in Waikiki

April 27, 2019 || Leave a Comment

Waikiki was where I regained confidence in my ability to travel alone. I had honestly expected to dislike Waikiki, thinking it would be like Cancun or Miami, just another touristy beach with highrises lining the ocean. It WAS always packed and the highrises were present, but despite my doubts I found myself falling in love […]

Four Days on the North Shore of Oahu

April 12, 2019 || Leave a Comment

I just spent four nights at a beautiful beach side hostel on the North Shore of Oahu, hiking in the mornings and relaxing on the beach in the afternoon. It sounds picture perfect, but I also cried at least once every day I was there. I forgot how HARD solo travel was. And I don’t […]

My Round the World Itinerary

February 20, 2019 || Leave a Comment

I love writing these planning posts so that after I actually go on my trip, I can look back and see whether everything went according to plan (spoiler alert, it never does). Without further ado here is more detail on where I’ll be going and what I’ll be doing! Hawaii (6 nights) I am still […]

How I booked a trip around the world for $2000

February 15, 2019 || 2 Comments

The summers of 2015 and 2016 were the first time I travelled for a few months in a row. I had the absolute best time, despite being robbed on the first trip – and the second summer was perfect and I couldn’t wait to do it again. Sadly, I have had to work full time […]

Best of 2018

December 29, 2018 || 1 Comment

What a year! I spent 4 months living in Toronto crying a lot, and then 8 months back at home in Nova Scotia getting my life together quite successfully. I didn’t go on as many trips as usual, but I still made it to Prague, Budapest, Krakow, Amsterdam, London, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Jamaica and the Dominican […]

Highlights of Two Weeks in Tanzania

August 21, 2018 || Leave a Comment

My trip to Tanzania was possibly the best two weeks of my life, but I have barely written about it. I kept wondering how to even start, so today I just decided I need to dive in and talk about all the incredible things I did and saw. It was such a raw two weeks […]

The Time We Missed our Rosario Islands Boat Tour in Colombia

July 27, 2018 || Leave a Comment

At 3:00AM, in a club in Cartagena, the opening notes of Despacito blasting around us, I looked over at my friend Theresa. “We should probably go home! We have a boat tour leaving at 8:00AM!” I yelled half-heartedly. But we both just shrugged at eachother, silently agreeing to push through, and I refocused my attention […]
