Next stop... Rhode Island!

Sitting at Vancouver airport waiting to board flight to Boston at 10:30 PM. I have a 2.5 hr layover in Toronto and have to go through customs, so I'm not looking forward to that since it'll be the middle of the night. I don't sleep well on planes either. Luckily I'll have a driver picking me up when I arrive, taking me to Providence to meet my best friend, Nicole.


Had a nice day in Qualicum Beach. Gave my dad a computer lesson in the morning and then slaughtered him playing a couple games of Othello. We hadn't played in years.


We all went for a stroll around town and the woods. It was Canada Day so a lot of stores were closed. Felt sad saying goodbye but I was also excited to move on and have some more fun! They'll come visit me in Maui soon, so I'm happy about that. Long wait for my flight to Boston since the last little flight from Qualicum Beach to Vancouver left at 5:55 PM.

Adventure!

6/23:
Haven’t blogged in years, but am ready to get back into it. At the Kahului Airport now waiting to board a flight to Vancouver to start a big adventure! I felt emotional yesterday and this morning about leaving, but as I got busy getting ready I started to feel excited. I am now 28 years old and my husband who I’ve been with for 10 years is being very supportive of me doing this trip by myself. It’s finally happening! It feels like it’s been a long wait because my soul has been craving this for the past couple years. I built up the courage to quit my mundane construction office job and don’t know what the next step is, but what I do know is that it’s time to break out of the cocoon and spread my wings. I have needed security and stability for a long time, but now reached the point where safe feels boring. I’ve only booked one-ways so far to Vancouver Island, Boston, Rhode Island, NYC and Sweden, and from there I’m going to follow my intuition. Stay tuned!
