Okay I lied. While im writing this it is -25 outside. And yes it was also around -20 through the day. But hey u get used to it, and my host Noreen has awesome extra winter clothes for me. I haven't updated in quite a bit cause, in the middle of nowhere the internet isn't great. Like as in ur ping in the city is 8ms and over here its 698ms. So basically a webpage takes up to 5minutes to load in the off times *rageflips computer* Anyway! that's not all that I have been doing up here ofcourse. Lets first head way back, to my bus trip through Ontario. It was right out gorgeous, seeing how gradually the snow heaps became bigger and the fields turned into huge trees and rocky landscapes. I was in ... read more

North America » Canada » Ontario » Ottawa November 19th 2014

So it has been several days since i last updated. Reasons for that? im lazy. haha no i was just busy with things like being sick. So lets start with the last days in Montreal. I ended up hanging out with a guy for several days and we walked around town alot. He just generally showed me things, like famous places to eat and the cinema's that actually showed movies in english. And i learned about something interesting, Like how the state of Quebec wants to be separated from the rest of Canada cause they are so french and all. Which i think sounded like something typically french.. Anyway! aside from that i played glow in the dark midgetgolf, which i was..sort of okay at actually? Really i was slightly better than i expected even though ... read more

North America » Canada » Quebec » Montréal November 8th 2014

It has been a few days again since my last update. I am not sure yet how much u should normally blog while travelling..i mean i could write pages and pages everyday but that is a bit much ain't it? First things first, i have been to the biodome, Which is some form of zoo but not really. Its completely covered so there is basically no influence from outside. They made several climates inside too! Like one minute i was walking through a moist forest, trying to find monkeys and watching the ara's while the next moment i was in a cave looking at bats. It was a pretty curious thing and i walked around for quite some time. Now for something completely different. Did i mention everything is in french? i am not sure if ... read more

North America » Canada » Quebec » Montréal November 5th 2014

So i have been in Montréal for a few days now. When i arrived i thought i was gona freeze to death, it was seriously cold.. Luckily for me, that was as cold as it gets, its about 2-6 degrees right now which is fine by me. So far i've been walking around town alot, been to the cathedral, parks, walked over 50km and had a great time! The cathedral was beautiful and i walked aroind quietly in awe of the building. i lit a candle for my grandma and then continued my walk through tje cathedral. After that i went to one of the many parks, and to my astonishment, i saw about a dozen squirls, hopping around looking for food. it was the cutest sight ever :) Lets see for food.. Yesterday i ate ... read more

Africa » Morocco November 2nd 2014

So this will be my first update outside of holland. Alot has happened already since i borded my plane and left everything behind or well to me it seems like alot Lets start off with the plane itself. It was pretty good actually. No crying baby's, the seat next to me was free so i had some extra space to myself and the food was better than i expected. Ofcourse it was nothing compared to all my favourite meals that my mother made these 2 weeks! Ones i got off the plane i desperately had to make a phone call. I was late for check-in with my hotel and still had an hour cab drive to go to even get there. I went to an information desk from royal air maroc to ask if i could ... read more

Europe » Netherlands November 1st 2014

So, my plane will take off in about 5 hours, and im not really having the creeps, stress or any feelings of joy about it yet. My mind is not really set for the travelling yet but i believe it will all suddenly hit me when i board my plane. My bags are nearly ready, only the last few things need to be packed, like some cables, my phone, headphones and other small things. The following update will probably be from my hotel room in casablanca on my phone and i will probably be stressing out like mad ! But hey thats all part of right? Anyway, enough talk for now, lets board this plane, and get the trip started. Everybody that is reading this, thank you for following my trip, i really will enjoy reading ... read more
