I think my travels are over this year. We're back in Vancouver for the foreseeable future. I've been many places, met tons of people, been to hell and back and had an awesome time. Through all of it I've learned that traveling is the bomb, but what's even better is having a place to come home to. It took about 60 seconds to get my old job back and ( Read more... )

We stayed at the wharf for three nights and had big bonfires until the cops busted us. Now we gotta camp out of town until the third. It's just two more nights anyway ( Read more... )

We worked our last day thinning apples and collected our combined $325 for our last week of work. Now, we're in Nelson ( Read more... )

So we made camp on Sukhi's orchard the night before we would start work. He pointed down a dirt road dividing two blocks of fruit trees on his orchard and told us to pitch our tent wherever. There was a road just off of that with rows of trees on either side, each row had a tent pitched between the trees with a few personal belongings of the owners ( Read more... )

If you haven't been keeping up, in the first entry the four of us set of in pairs to reach Oliver, each taking separate paths. It was a race to see who would win and it seemed like me and Gillian were in the lead. Of course, in the second entry all our hopes and dreams are shattered when we find out we lost. Lost harsh. You can hear all about how ( Read more... )

Continuing our adventures from last time, you know that me and Gillian were in Chilliwack and well on our way to beating Nate and Razan to Oliver. After only an hour or so near the vedder crossing exit, we managed to pick up a ride from a native lady heading out to Calgary, returning home from dropping her kids off at the reserve on Vancouver ( Read more... )

After a couple months of what I would call a vacation away from a vacation, we've returned to the highway ( Read more... )

Well, fortunately we weren't stuck there for 3 days. Not nearly that much actually. we waited from mid-day to sundown and eventually someone did pick us up. A man very unfittingly named Bulldog with little teddy-bears glued onto the dashboard gave us a ride in his oldsmobile. We cruised down the Hope-Princeton highway-he was going all the way to ( Read more... )
