Montenegro
Montenegro is a Balkan country south of Croatia and north of Albania and Greece. I’m in a small city of 30,000 called Herceg Novi, south of Dubrovnik.
Switzerland
I had arranged a two month house-sit through a family connection located in the outskirts of Geneva, looking after an elderly lab named Skeena. I was looking forward to staying put for a bit as I don’t have a lot of energy on the best of days, and I was exhausted from the previous few months of packing and emotional goodbyes.
Shine on, you crazy glimmer
Ever felt joy wash over you, seemingly out of nowhere, even while doing something ordinary? That’s a “glimmer.” It’s a term I just learned, and I’m glimmering about it.

About me
I was born and raised on beautiful Vancouver Island and grew up on horseback in a rural area. When I was seven, our family spent a year in a beautiful hill town in Mexico while my father earned his masters degree in fine arts. I suppose that’s where my love of travel began.
Since that time, I’ve whitewater rafted in Austria, dodged water buffalo in Laos, snorkelled in Costa Rica, fallen off a galloping horse in Turkey, swum with a wild beluga whale in Nova Scotia and thrown a giant centipede out of my bed in India.
Through a series of (un)fortunate events during the pandemic, I found myself in the position to semi-retire and travel the globe. I’m not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination, but I have figured a few things out and would love to share them with you, if you want to come along for the ride!
