Enraged pedestrian. Flâneur. Hiker. Explorer. Web developer. Photographer. Daydreamer. Recluse. Road full of promise, head full of doubt. Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Hello.
I’m
in Halifax, NS, Canada,
where it’s -5°
and mostly cloudy
at 3:44am.
Current alert: weather.
I’m currently reading The Librarianist: A Novel by Patrick deWitt.

After taking last year off from our (mostly) annual tradition, three friends and I jumped back into a couple of canoes and headed into the backcountry of Kejimkujik National Park for the Victoria Day long weekend.

A friend and I decided to get away from the city and head up to Cape Breton to get some fresh air and get the snowshoes wet. This is the part of the Brad D’Or lakes outside my friend’s family cottage.

After a long pandemic and life-related hiatus from hiking I thought it was about time to get back on the trail.

It’s difficult for me to pass on a new Field Notes edition at the best of times, so the campfire edition had me right away.
