As most of you know by now, I left my job in March of this year. A variety of reasons drove that decision but regardless of them, this has afforded the opportunity for me to finally embark on an adventure that I have talked about forever.
April and May were spent getting the house ready to go on the market and then finally moving out. May 23 I said goodbye to what had been my home for 17 years. From that point until now I have spent my days with friends and family throughout BC and Alberta (and a quick dip down to Montana). The time spent with everyone has been incredible. Great company, good food, loads of laughs and memories to carry me forward until we see each other again.
Over this period of time I drove about 7000 kms and I cannot express how good this was for my soul. Over the last while I had become quite disenfranchised with Canada and Alberta in particular. This trip not only gave me the opportunity to spend time with those I love, but I also created the opportunity for me to fall in love with this country again … we do live in an incredibly beautiful part of the world.
And so tomorrow I get on the plane and start this next chapter in my life … I will be in touch and look forward to sharing this journey with you
