Whales never bore
Shall I do it? Is it worth it? The orca season was really over and yet I heard a girl say she saw them only a week before. I’ve done whale watching before and I know it’s not always what you expect it to be. When you see a fin…
My favourite photos of 2015
It’s super hard for me to choose which photos I love the most. Some look good, others remind me of a fun moment and yet others show the beauty of the places I have seen. And I have seen many! I took my camera almost everywhere and thus I have…
Weirdness is working
I’m walking to the train station and that area has some bus stops, but also seems to be a popular place to hang out, especially if you have no place to be. One man comments on my backpack and says I must have been everywhere, big smile on his face.…
Hello new life!
Right. Just over a week ago I came to Whistler. All I can say is. I am impressed. At first I was more overwhelmed. This mountain is huge! The amount of staff working here is crazy. I keep looking at the ski instructor uniform on the coat rack and have…
The best nature’s got to offer
The off season makes travelling a little harder. In the morning it still wasn’t sure if my tour could actually go. Luckily they confirmed just in time. The upside of the off season is that if you can do the things you want to do, it is a lot quieter…
Home of the creatives
Rainy day in Seattle? Ok, pretty common this time of year. Not necessarily the worst though. There are many things you can still do, like visiting one of the museums. The EMP museum kept me entertained for over 3 hour and I pretty much left because they were going to…
Let me tell you about my day…
I’ve arrived in Seattle. I open the train doors and walk off. One of the train staff is yelling. He’s yelling at me! Apparently you cannot open doors yourself in America. I try to find the bus stop, but the locals send me off in the wrong direction, so I…
Surfin’ Tofino!
Today was the day. For years I’ve been listening to the Planet Smashers singing about surfing in Tofino. So now I’m finally here, I just have to try it. It was an awful day! In the morning it started pouring, so what better to do than getting wet? The moment…
Lone Cone, but not alone
It’s like it’s trying to eat my shoes. I feel it sucking. It is definitely muddy. We were told there was a lot of mud, but what is a lot? Basically the whole flat part of the trail consisted of jumping from root to log to stone. It was hard…
Trees and things
While in Vancouver, I stayed at the HI downtown hostel. The great thing about this hostel is that something was organized every day. I decided to sign up for the Capilano bridge tour. At 9AM I met our guide Erik. From that moment it was already clear that the tour…
