epic view heh dove, it's so amazing to see your photos of Tikal and reminisce all those buenas vistas...I am so happy you are where you are. I hiked some good volcanoes around Guatamala in my day and it was incredible to tap into that fire energy. blessings and love
hi DD! Yay! I am so satisfied with the latest photos! I'm here at mom's place right now so we thought we'd write you together. Me first. I am sooo happy to hear you are having such a great time partying your ass off whether it involves booze or not. I'm glad to hear your friends had a good first aid kit to help with your head thump and that you didn't dround in the pool. My perspective on your night was somewhat different to mom's, I was chearing and laughing because you are 21 and traveling and it wouldn't be complete if your adventures didn't involve stories like this so I am very happy for you that you are living it up because lots of time goes by between traveling experiences and you'll have to get to work when you get home you mentioned. Two jobs maybe? Cam and I got an invitation to a friends wedding in Mexico for february [ I think ] so if things work out we will take that oppertunity to take a little vacate. I have hit the point in my pregnancy where baby can come any time now healthily which of course is a great thing however, the down side to that is I'm frustrated cause i'm tired of being pregnant and want my body back. I'm not going to burden anyone with my discomfort but it's in there big time. I am having fun living vicariously through you. Mom wanted me to write her part for her in her words of course. She sends her love and looks forward to seeing you again. She loves your pictures and had lots to say about your drunken fall but I reminded her that you're a grown up and can live however you want and you have a good head on your shoulders, bruised but good lol. I love you and thanks again for your update. sista ky
I love it hey girl.
you are making want to travel so much with all those wonderful, gorgeous pictures. i keep getting butterflies when i think about all the incredable adventures i had in south america last year. i am getting so stoked for my sister and the girls they are going to see and experience so much in the four months that they will be travelling in central america. you are going to have to tell her all the good places to go in el salvador and all the other sweet places that you have visited.
i am so sikked to see you Dove darlin and hear about all the other stories and all the details of your adventures.

yello Hi DD, I always look forward to checking your blog in the hopes of seeing new photos. More than anything I look forward to checking out the full spectrum with you when you return though these tide me over just fine. Baby is kicking lots these days and eagerly awaiting birth as are we aswell. Going through all the baby stuff and washing everything allows me to finally feel readyand boy oh boy does this tiny person ever have alot of cute stuff. I love you lots and think of you daily. Take care. love ky
lobster Have you eaten any lobster or conch yet? You haven't talked much about what you've been eating and we'd sure like to read that you have tried bamboo chicken and gibnut.
Thinkin of U i love the pics, please send more.
winter is here and Ular has granted us with loads of powder. i am having a bit of a hard time focusing on school lately with all this wonderful white fairy dust. i have been hiking at the hill every chance i get. what a magical heavenly experience it truely is gliding through endless pow, feelin freer than an eagle.
yesterday Ganesh and i hiking up to west ymir with the sun rays guiding our way. we dropped into the open bowl and felt God touch our hearts and our lives in a way that i could never expain. after hours of hiking through the deep snow up to the summit, riding down is like a little dream that is behind you before you have time to blink. and then you are at the bottom looking up at your line, but that tingly butterfly feeling flutters your haert every time you think about that precious moment.
well Dove and should be getting back to my studies, but i am really looking forward to hearing from you again as always.
Love your friend
Taiowa

Best story yet. Keep making them up! I know your really in Vancouver with your secret lover, but where do you keep getting all these great pictures!

Right now it is BARFING outside and I am so happy for anyone who gets to shread it ,as for me the only shredding I'll be doing before baby comes is nordic but as long as I get to be out in it I'm happy. Just wait though once babie's born look out , I can taste it!!!! I love you. sista ky

holla amiga Hey Dove. i aways look forward to checking my email just because i love all your stories. i have been checking my email twice as much as i normally do so that i can read up on your latest enteries.i remember going to palenque when i was 8 yrs old. it was astondingly beautiful. i remember going on a wicked trekk with my family to whole bunch of incredable ruins, and the jungle was full of exotic birds and insects as well as many of those orange-racoon like-creatures.
so i would truly love to see some pict of some ruin when you take some.
the snow is getting deeper here in the koots. Michelle and i went to the hill and hiked all day yesterday. full powdery face shots and deep untouched pow all the way down blast, yeee haaa!!!
well i love you Dove and i look forward to your next entery as usual.

So fly high my sweet Dove and go see what you can see. And please be safe!The Great Spirit will guide you and protect you!!
Many prayers and blessings. holla me bionita amiga, tu amor.
Dovina i like it! you really suit the name, i suggest you use it in central america, the people will brobably be able to pronouce Dovina better than Dove as well. I change my name to Tarita when i was travelling for no one could pronouce my name proberly down there, it was quite actuallyamusing listening to their atemps.
my comments are congradulations Dove darling!!!! you are finally doing what you have always dreamed of-since i met you at least. i have learned that it is very important to follow your dreams in life, and that when you follow your dreams you lexperience the most useful, meaningful and powerful lessons. i am so happy for you Dove. you are a truly incredable person and you always have unlimited potentail to do whaT EVER YOU DREAM OF IN LIFE. have a wonderful halloween where ever you are, and peractice spanish as much as you can. i can gauranty that it will make your adventure way more personal and cultural.
my finally but not last comment/advise to you Dove is to always stay intune with your inner child, so that no matter the place or the circumstance you can always trust your intuition and your gut feeling.
my heart ful of love is with you girl, your friend always Taiowa/Tarita
p.s have tons and tons of fun and charish every moment for it will be a once it a life time experience and time flys while you are travelling-before you know it you will be back in Canada(surfing some deep power with me yeee haa, i'm so... excited) and it will all seem like a dream or a glisp in time.
