How does time go so quickly here? Is it because I spend every waking hour eating or being constantly lost in thought about what I want to eat before my time is up and I’m off again to the land of the worst food ever? (Hint: possibly.)
It’s been five weeks since I came to Canada and I am out of here today.
While my friends and family were all so, so lovely for hosting me during this trip, I can’t wait to get back home, get underwater on a dive, and sleep in my own king-size bed…mosquitoes not included in that wish, obviously.
The thoughts of my own bathroom and $2 drinks (PS. fuck you Vancouver, in that department) waiting for me in Roatan is going to carry me through some really terrible overnight flights and nasty layovers this weekend. Keep me in your airport god prayers for some quiet seats that are free of those stupid armrests they put on them so no one can lay down.
While my next post will be coming to you from the tropics once again, here’s my photos + witty caption essay on the highlights of the last five weeks in absolutely no order at all (warning – many delicious food pics):
 |
| some amazing views in vancouver |
 |

 |

 |
| so yeah, saskatchewan really is flat enough to watch your dog run away for three days. |
 |
| smoked salmon is my favorite. i ate it almost every day in canada. that’s probably not even healthy. |
 |
| tofu! tempeh! vegetables! HEAVEN! |
 |
| a well-attended hockey game in moose jaw |

Adios, Canada. See you another time, might be soon. But for now, I’m going home.
I've been back on Roatan for a week and definitely missing some delicious cool forest!
It's all part of my master plan to get you guys down here… hehehe 🙂
Hahah thanks Charlotte!! I actually have receive quite a few comments on the site about there not really being many photos of me… I kind of forget sometimes that usually my photos on here have me in full dive gear 🙂
It's been a week and I'm missing the A/C. Like, a lot.
Yikes – you are much braver than me!! No way am I going back in the winter!
I can't believe your time up here has come to a close already! I feel like you just got here… And somehow, despite finally being in the same country again, we managed to be so close but so far and didn't get to meet up as hoped. Why do I feel like Tony & I are going to have chase you to Roatan?!? 🙂
Safe travels & I'm glad your time back in Canada was of the good.
Aw, love these pics. Glad you had a nice time. I can relate to being somewhere hot for a long time and then doing something that seems so commonplace as dress shopping and just being supremely grateful for AC. #simplepleasures, I'm telling you.
I went to Ucluelet once. Just the sweetest place.
Ah, the shock of cold…I am NOT looking forward to returning to Canada mid-November after being in perma-summer for nearly a year. Bah!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 🙂
🙂 woop-a-dee-doo.
Thanks lady! See you soon, hopefully with my new planner in tow haha 🙂
Safe travels my island sister! See you in a month!
