A Few of My Favorite Things

People keep asking me "What was your favorite part of your journey?" I can't pinpoint a single experience as my ultimate favorite, but I can identify a few of my favorite things.

Days 82 & 83: Sunshine, Poetry, & Tea

At risk of sounding like a true travel blogger, I'm going to skim through the high points of our last 27 hours in Victoria because they were nothing short of delightful.

Day 75-77: Banff, Driving, & Breathing

I was super excited to visit Banff National Park, but the time I spent there was almost all together disappointing.

Days 73 & 74: Oh…Canada!

As it turns out, Canada is a foreign country.

Days 69-72: Glaciers & Grizzlies

I knew I was coming on this journey to learn about myself, but I honestly had no idea how much other knowledge I'd gain.

Days 64 & 65: Wildfires

Smokey the Bear fire prevention campaigns were lost on me as a kid. Out west, they've taken on new meaning.

Day 63: Sleeping in the Street with Bikers

Today was shitty. But tonight was unexpectedly lovely.

Days 55-60: Jackson Hole

I wish I could have plucked all the tourists out of Jackson and just observed the locals...but they were easy to tell apart!

Day 54: Taking Time

I'm learning out here I make friends with strangers pretty easily...

Days 52 & 53: Yellowstone & the Tetons

A couple girlfriends came to visit me for the Perseid Meteor Shower. We didn't see much of it, but we saw Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons National Parks.
