Pumpkin Pie

I got onto the Greyhound bus a bit over a week before the end of the season on the 17th of April, five months to the day that I arrived by myself, only this time I was getting onto the bus with my other half - Ashleigh. We flew over to Ontario to Fenelon Falls where Ash grew up and I have just spent the past three weeks at her parents where I have had the opportunity to digest and process the winter in my mind for this entry. I finished up my last entry with the possibility of getting some [View Full Entry]

Trans Canada

 North America » Canada » Alberta » Lake Louise
I just read back over my last blog so that I could start this edition fresh from where I finished off and the first thoughts that came to mind were how quickly time has gone, how much I have managed to do and also how slack I have been in not writing as regularly as I first thought I would. It’s been four months since I have felt a temperature in the positive and I have acclimatised pretty well. On average its been around -10 but lately its been getting anywhere from there to -30. Here at Lake Louise it’s been [View Full Entry]

The silver Greyhound slowly pulled back onto the icy highway. It was 9.30 at night, dark and snowing. I was still wearing the same jumper that I put on 3hrs earlier at Calgary and glad that I had my new snow jacket in hand. I slung my pack over my shoulder and made my way across the open snow covered car park, floodlit just enough so that I could make out a few people stumbling about, obviously on their way to a bar. “Hey do you guys know where Charleston is?” I yelled out to them. “Yeah its 200m down the [View Full Entry]

13 weeks ago I decided to go out on a limb and organise a working holiday in Canada and here I am waiting for the bus at a Greyhound station in Calgary! The countdown went pretty quick but managed to draw out a few times as well; it felt weird hanging up the apron at Hudsons after being there for so long. I have to begin by saying how much fun I had catching up for coffees and beers with you all before I left. Also I have to thank Mum who went to so much trouble putting on an early [View Full Entry]
