This is not so much a story, but a question. I've been posting photos on both here and Facebook, and was wondering if anyone is actually viewing them on here. I was thinking of perhaps posting a link to my photos on Facebook with each post; like ... Read more >

Bonjour! I am sitting at my hostel in Montreal, which classes itself as an 'Alternative Backpackers', and it has an understated funk to it. The walls are all painted different 'gently bold' colours, if that makes sense. The staff are fantastic, cruisey ... Read more >

Well, I certainly didn't feel that great the day after my last post, I tell you! I always knew there was a reason I didn't drink beer. Because it makes you SICK! Had to get up at 10:30 to check out and in again (changing to a dorm), which left me plenty ... Read more >

Okay, so the bulk of the post will be about the night I've just had, as there really is not to much to report on during the day. At about 2pm we went on a guided tour of the hotel Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac. Who is we you ask? Take a breath: Natalya ... Read more >

As the title suggests, today I simply meandered through the streets of Quebec and enjoyed the moderate weather (by Canadian standards). It is very European, at times I felt like I could have been in Rome, you know, bar the French diffusing through ... Read more >

I have been completely overwhelmed by the inherent kindness and generosity displayed by almost every Canadian I have met thus far. I know Australians like to consider themselves friendly and laid-back, but we have much to learn from this bitterly cold ... Read more >

Today was freaking cold. I now know what they mean when they say wind chill. I can’t say I ever thought it was a cop-out, but it kind of meant nothing to me. Until today. Oh my freaking jebus, it was cold. Apparently about -25 or so with wind chill.... Read more >

Once upon a time there was a young woman walking through a forest. She was known commonly as wee Mel, a name a Scotsman gave her one time because she was quite short. Personally, the narrator believes that all non-short people suffer from midget-envy, ... Read more >

A brunette is walking along a track when an elk jumps out. Start of joke? Possibly. Both brunette and elk have minor aneurisms and severe palpitations? Yup. I think that the brunette was too busy looking at the icy track because she had ended up on her ... Read more >

Hello my little readers, No longer am I a prisoner, except for the part where I'm almost confined to Andrew's room, hiding as an illegal immigrant to avoid the steely wrath of the owner of the dormitories where Andrew is now staying. In case I forgot, ... Read more >

I write to you from a minimum security prison in the middle of BF nowhere. How do I explain this to my parents? Well, apparently I had a VERY good time. Or, in fact, the jail has been converted into a dormitory type set up for people working at Nakiska ... Read more >
