The best education

‘Travel is the best education you can give yourself.’
Growing up, I heard this advice a lot from my Grandma as she was showing us photos and telling us all about her latest trip.  
She saw the world and inspired me to do the same. 
A lifelong teacher, she knew the value of education, but also knew that the world had so much more to offer than you could ever find in a classroom. 
Only while immersing yourself in someone else’s way of life do you realize how alike we truly are.

Thank you for instilling in me this love of travel and need to constantly be educating myself.

Happy birthday my travelling Grandma! I hope everyone up there enjoys your travel stories as much as I always did! Xo

Climb that mountain

Because in the end, you won't remember the time you spent working in the office of mowing your lawn.Climb that goddamn mountain.

Eight years ago, I was making my way up Mount Kilimanjaro. Our days started with a cup of chai tea and ended with group singing and dancing.  It was a six day journey and one of the hardest things I have ever done. Long hot days of walking, cold nights in tents on rough ground, holes in the ground for washrooms and no showers. By the end, we were all physically and mentally exhausted. Beginning the last section of the climb at midnight felt almost impossible, but getting to the top, just as the sun was rising over the ‘rooftop of Africa’, is a memory I will never forget!

Best classroom

‘Travel is the best education you can give yourself.’
Growing up, I heard this a lot from my Grandmam, often as she was showing us photos and telling us all about her latest trip.
She saw the world and inspired me to do the same.
Grandma was teacher her whole life and knew the importance of education. However, she also knew that the world had so much more to offer than you could ever find within the four walls of a classroom.

Thank you for filling my veins with a thirst for travel and a need to always keep educating myself on this amazing world we live in.

Happy birthday my travelling Grandma! I hope everyone up there enjoys your travel stories as much as I always did! Xo
