I have mentioned a few times how important it is to cherish every moment you have while on your travels (here & here), because you never know what life will throw […]

Hello all! It has been a while since I was here last, and I think I have a decent reason. On (Canadian) Thanksgiving day our home was broken into while […]
Well it has been busy over here – outside the blogosphere. We bought our new home, moved in (and unpacked!), completed a few urgent renos – I even studied Reiki and […]
Upon returning back to my Viennese suite, I was surprised to find a message from my host. He owned another apartment (or 3) in the building, that he called home. […]
Cancer has brought me to places I never, ever thought I would go. Discovering his diagnosis set my Father on a new path. It was now time to do the […]
I have been quite enjoying the yard here at Reid Manor. Quite a change from the distinct lack of land that the floaty home had to offer. Sometimes I find […]
“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” – Saint Augustine HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Today is the Habitual Runaway blogging birthday – hard to […]
Life as a habitual runaway can lead you many interesting places. Though I thought we had made a permanent settlement, it turns out that just was not to be so. […]
We were about to enter a small village that would make for a great break between the bad drivers and community degradation. I don’t know how long we had been […]
After leaving Camp 30 in Bowmanville, we headed out onto the (HWY) 401 just to get stuck in hours of traffic. Traffic itself I have no problem with, it is […]

Scorpions, like all other jungle creatures, were always desperately trying to get into the house. My hosts had pet dogs (very uncommon in this part of the world), and so […]
I was only in Thailand a few days before my birthday came to pass. I didn’t have a plan and didn’t really know anyone, but I was determined to have […]
A short drive from downtown is the Hat Yai municipal park. Located high above the city, spanned across two peaks, the municipal park includes plenty of flora and fauna – […]
You can always rely on Whistler to be a good time – usually TOO GOOD a time! The place is run by young, hard partying, friendly Aussies – 70% of […]
My teaching ‘headquarters’ were right across from the ‘khlong’. A khlong rien is a multipurpose ‘water’way, used for rain water run off and sewage. Most of them are concreted off, […]
We could feel the temperature shifting as we got closer to Lillooet. The air was crisper, and our breath left a fog in the morning. Though we had some notice […]
The landscape through the mountains begins to change dramatically around Lytton, and through to Lillooet. The trees get shorter, the landscape becomes more rocky, and everything gets a lot drier. […]
