Travel: Niagara on the Lake

Dear Readers, This week my mother, grandmother, and I went on a little road trip down to Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. We have family that live in  Niagara-on-the-Lake so we decided just a couple of weeks ago to go down for a short visit. The last time I had been to Niagara-on-the-Lake was in 2006 when I…

Travel: Stromness, Orkney

Dear Readers After watching The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society for the 10th time it made me think about the time I spent in Orkney this past summer, and how similar Stromness, Orkney is to Guernsey, THEN, I got thinking about how I never posted a proper blog post about Stromness, Orkney (and…

Farewell Twenty Eighteen

An Outdoor Day in Saint John

Dear Readers, Back when my friend Axel was visiting me we had one outdoor day exploring Saint John, and it reminded me of how beautiful Saint John is AND how many things there actually are to do. This specific day it was sunny out so we decided to take advantage of all the great things…

Travel: 6 Hours in Copenhagen

Dear Readers, So two years ago, I lived in and went to school in Sweden for a year, at Lund University. Lund is located at the southern point of Sweden, so it is actually only a forty minute train ride to Copenhagen, Denmark, which is where I always flew in and out of. During my…

Travel: Peggy’s Cove

Dear Readers, This week I was lucky enough to head back to Nova Scotia (for technically the third time since I have been home). I'm sure some of you know that I was born in Nova Scotia and moved to New Brunswick in 2002, so Nova Scotia has always held a special place in my…

Cape Spencer

Dear Readers, On Thanksgiving Monday I took my Swedish friend Axel on a tour of Saint John which primarily focused on outdoor adventures. The first stop (and my favourite) was Cape Spencer. I must admit... that this was my first time visiting Cape Spencer, besides my mother telling me she took us when we were…
