It was New Year’s Eve, and our last full day in Canada. And in fitting, “Great White North” tradition, it was snowing. All day. So what did we do? We journeyed out to the local grocery store, loaded up on junk food, brought it back to the AirBnB hunkered down in front of… Continue reading Quebec Day 5: Bon Anne!

Quebec Day 4: Frostbite Watch 2019
**A Note** So, hi. Life got a little busy when I got back from Canada six months ago, hence why there is such a large gap between the posting of days 1-3 of our Canada trip, and days 4 and 5. Now that the school year is over, I figured it's time to play a… Continue reading Quebec Day 4: Frostbite Watch 2019
Quebec Day 3: Boiling Like Lobsters
We woke to the sound of our resident chef Geof preparing his famous latkes in the kitchen. You’ll notice I have no photos of these delicacies, and that’s because they were all eaten within seconds of hitting plates. It’s almost like something comprised mostly of potato and cheese is delicious… Our destination of the… Continue reading Quebec Day 3: Boiling Like Lobsters
Quebec Day 2: Chambre à Air
We woke around 9am after a sleep that was less than satisfactory. Both Sarah and I had woken up in the middle of the night and heard pacing in the hallway for a steady five minutes. Either someone in our party is an unaware sleepwalker, or the house is definitely haunted. The one downside… Continue reading Quebec Day 2: Chambre à Air
Quebec Day 1: Fancy Feast
Five friends, each brought together by a desire for friendship and adventure decided to plan a trip to the most dangerous and remote of North American destinations reachable by car: Quebec City, Canada. There will be bitter cold. There will be icy car rides. There will be awkward language barriers. But first there will… Continue reading Quebec Day 1: Fancy Feast
Turkey Wrap-Up
Not to be confused with “Turkey Wrap.” That’s a sandwich. Our last morning in Turkey was straightforward. We woke up with enough time to get our stuff together. I just kind of threw everything into my bag. That’ll be fun to deal with tomorrow. I also had a little time to kill between… Continue reading Turkey Wrap-Up
Antalya Day 3: Naked And Afraid
It was the last fun day of our trip, and we wound up sleeping in a bit later than intended. Luckily we were still able to make it up in time for our free breakfast, with not a second to spare. Turns out it wouldn’t have really mattered if we were too late. This was… Continue reading Antalya Day 3: Naked And Afraid
Antalya Day 2: Turkish Mermaids
We set our wake up call for 8:30 to make sure we were ready to roll out at a reasonable hour to hit up Mermeli Beach, the small private beach set in a cove near our hotel. Conveniently, it’s really simple to roll out of bed, slap on a bathing suit and cover up, and… Continue reading Antalya Day 2: Turkish Mermaids
Antalya Day 1: 99 Luftballoons
I know it’s a German song and we’re in Turkey, but roll with it. Like a dehydrated zombie, I rose from my slumber at 5am. Brushed my teeth. Threw on a sweatshirt. And emerged from our cave hotel. As soon as I looked up, I was elated to find hot air balloons afloat.… Continue reading Antalya Day 1: 99 Luftballoons
Cappadocia Day 3: Desert Delerium
So with the knowledge that I wasn’t going to be able to go up in a balloon myself, I decided to try and get up to watch the hot air balloons from my terrace. It required a 5am wake up call. I should have gone back to bed immediately after realizing that literally no one… Continue reading Cappadocia Day 3: Desert Delerium
