My story...

I left Vancouver on April 4 2010 to live one year abroad. I arrived in London- spent a week with my cousins, headed over to Ireland to see some more cousins and tour the country, back to London for a day- and arrived in Paris on April 28th, 2010. I found an apartment and started working on May 10th. From May 2010 until February 2011 I lived the Parisian life and took advantage of living in the epicenter of the world by traveling and exploring numerous nearby countries such as: Algeria, Portugal, Switzerland, Spain, England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, the south of France, Belgium, Morocco, and South Africa.
This blog takes you into the wonderful adventures of my life with stories and pictures galore.
I was due back to Vancouver on April 1, 2011- where I took my position back after my one year leave. I flew back to Vancouver on March 27, 2011. It has been good to be back- I am so blessed as I am surrounded by such great people!!! So good to see friends and family again after 1 year!
Just because I'm back in Vancouver to what was my "normal" life... doesn't mean the adventures and blogging stop here. The adventures will continue I'm sure... so
the only way to stay informed with my random experiences is to come back to this page! So add it to your favourites.

Sevilla, Espagne = amazing

Well... I am taking you back into time now... in order to catch up- I have to cover all adventures since November! My goodness!!!! I may go back and edit/add some of these later- just so I can get them online.

So my friend from Vancouver Noriko and I decided to make a trip to the South of Spain. Wow... how amazing and incredible it was. We were blessed with fabulous sunny skies- a little chill in the air, but beautiful. Every city we went to the people said it was raining the day before... so I guess we brought the sun with us!

What is a holiday without trying authentic local food- so I start with some food pictures. This was our breakfast one morning- soooooo DELICIOUS!!!! Fresh toasted bun with olive oil, tomatoes and cheese. d.i.v.i.n.e. What I loved most about Portugal and Spain is that they serve you the worlds best coffee- the perfect size- in a glass! Yum! The breakfast of Spanish champions- Ready to start our first day!

Later one night we went to this place for Tapas- if you ever find yourself in Seville...

Well... as one friend put it... everywhere you go in Seville it smells of crushed oranges- it is so true! Every street is lined with orange trees- they were just ripening when we got there.

I loved Sevilla... wish I could have spent more time there.. just means I have to go back :)
