For those worrisome souls who like to play big brother and make sure I'm not in some flower garden Calgary style, I'll update you periodically on my whereabouts - then you'll know where to start your search.
So I'm leaving in only 2 days!!! I've got a lot of stuff I still have to take care of, including this issue of trimming the fat on my pack. I feel like a bit of a girl with the amout of stuff I'm bringing, but I'm not a fan of laundry. But I'm also a fan of having my shoulders in-tact by the time I get home.

Then we take Berlin
Arriving in Berlin, I wasn't too sure what to expect. To be honest, I wasn't even all that excited about coming here. I had images of this Soviet s... Continue reading »

So I can`t exactly say that this has been my favorite place so far. It has it`s advantages (i.e. half litre beer for less than a euro, and that`s a... Continue reading »

Can somebody tell me where I am?
Arriving in Venice, I had the option of buying a map for €4.50. The thought process goes something like this... "What is this??? Swi... Continue reading »

Nice is nice
Nice wasn't really much of a touristy stop for me - it was more of a stop-over. Hoping to catch an afternoon on the beach, the weather wasn't exa... Continue reading » -
