I'm in Halifax and have been for a good 2.5 weeks. I'm flying back to Ottawa tomorrow. Yes, yes, I should have posted sooner. The main purpose of this trip is to visit my good friend Pat. I did the Vancouver trip earlier to visit Jen so now it's Pat's ... Read more >

I did, in fact, end my 2010 Asia travels in Cambodia. I know the journal just kinda... stops. For all those hungering for more facinating memoirs following Korea I'll be posting a copy of my last journal online. Some day. I wrote more frequently in ... Read more >

Holy, holy, poop... I'm booooored; or just over tired. Ugh. I don't want to sleep or do anything productive. I'd like to draw and do some sketchies but I hate to do that stuff in the presence of people . *shifty eyes* Saw the secret garden behind ... Read more >

I'm always horrified when I log on to this blog and realize how little I have updated. That makes for a lot of catching up. I am now groaning... Soooo... I'm in Seoul. I had the wonderful "Korean Airport Experience!". Basically a lot of ... Read more >

I'll get to what I've been up to in a moment. First I'll explain where my head is at. I've heard about this "two month blues" before. I've experience culture shock so now it's on to the next traveler's disease. Basically it's when someone ... Read more >

I decided I would head straight to Jeju Island. It is the Southernmost part of South Korea and has a semi-tropical feel. Good choice despite the touristy-ness. My ferry only departed at 7:00pm so I spent the day chilling on Haeundae beach in Busan.... Read more >

Well, I have spent one day in Busan and frankly I'm just not feeling it. In town the people have been very rude and pushy for the most-part. And I mean pushy in a litteral sense. Not only do people just cut in front of you if you aren't an inch away ... Read more >

As I said, I love Tokyo. I love the energy that the place has. I feel there's a district for all tastes and everyone could find their place there. It's nice since I've felt I haven't belonged anywhere in years. It's a huge metropolis but you don't feel ... Read more >

Okay, so the honest to God truth is that I hate writing in this thing. It's not that I don't like to update all you nice folk; I do like to let everyone know what's up. It's just that I already write in my journal old-school style... pen and paper, kids.... Read more >

I guess I look like someone named Bicky (I think she meant Vicky). That or maybe all of us white folk look the same to Asians. It could work both ways. I actually don't think everyone looks the same though. Still at the youth hostel in Matsuyama. I'm ... Read more >

It's nice to be back in a bigger city. I suppose I'm a city girl at heart. Being in the mountains is still the nicest part of the walk, though the hardest uphill climbs are there too. I just feel that the convenience of the city is ideal with occasional ... Read more >

I`ve posted new pictures in the Shikoku album. I`ll post something later. I have some running around to do now.

This pilgrimage... I don:t really know what to think of it yet. It has been neat to meet some people but disappointing to only have partial conversations with them. I would like to be fluent enough to get to know the folk I meet since most are very, ... Read more >
