When the magic started
Immigrating to another country is not easy. There are a lot of hoops to jump through, a lot of challenges to overcome. Doesn’t matter how prepared you are, how much you’ve planned, it takes a while for you to get on your feet, get a place to live, get a job, establish a routine. And, […]

One week Vacay in Tobermory
After being here for almost 12 years I finally went to Tobermory during the summer. This is the kind of place that’s too close to home to make me want to actually do the effort to plan a trip but not close enough to make it an easy day trip, so I postponed it forever. […]

Carcassonne

Walking through the clouds in Montserrat
Ok, I think we have established by now that I am TERRIBLE on keeping this blog updated. Today is May 28th, 2020 and I’m still writing about my last trip that started on September last year. I have started writing this post a million times already and the longer it takes the harder it is […]

Barcelona – Days 7 & 8
Day 7 was a quiet day. After working I just went to do laundry. And after a few days having appetizers for lunch (even though healthy ones) I was craving a big salad with real meat, so I decided to walk around for a bit and found a place called Fit Kitchen and they had […]

Barcelona – Days 4 to 6
So, since the following few days I was working part of the day and exploring the city after work, I got to see fewer places each day, so I will try to condense 3 days in one post! Day 4 The weather forecast for today was almost 100% rain 😖 and I had decided to […]

Barcelona – Day 3
Day 1 Day 1 in Barcelona was actually day 3 since I got here on the Saturday 19th, but didn’t actually do anything. Day 2 I went to Girona and Figueres, so it’s day 3 of the third part of the trip and day 42 since I left Canada. After spending the day before in […]
