Banff Road Trip

Amanda | July 23, 2010

I always imagined that I would get to visit beautiful places on planned vacations. On planned vacations that take me 2o plus hours of plane travel to arrive at. This little trip came out of the blue on a dark, winter’s day when the possibility of a family reunion taking place in Edmonton was announced. [...]

Elk and Moose and Bears, Oh My!

Amanda | July 6, 2010

The weary travellers have returned and I have so much to tell you about our little Canadian road trip. Before I do, I wanted to share some Polaroids from one of the most amazing weeks I’ve had in a long time. I feel one with nature like I never have before.

Letters To Lovers: France

Amanda | June 27, 2010

We have not yet met, but I know that once we do, our hearts will be joined forever. I’ve heard you’re very beautiful and full of that magic light that I chase. I dream of  sitting in your cafes watching the world go by and walking your hilly, Montmartre streets with camera in hand. I [...]

Whistler and the Magical Gondola Ride

Amanda | March 17, 2010

One of the best things about living in Vancouver is being so close to mountains and snow fields. My Canadian has grown up with a world class ski resort in his backyard and I often ask him if he knows how lucky he is to have had his own ski village and mountains at the [...]

The Thing About The Northern Hemisphere…

Amanda | November 27, 2009

I s that travel is so accessible and easy. Most of you Northern Hemispherians would not realise what kind of ridiculous ordeal it is to get on a plane and go anywhere from Australia. Try 26 hours to Dublin from Sydney. Living in Australia or New Zealand means a life devoted to travel needs to [...]
