Parking tickets, Jet Boating and Ghost Tours: Days 6-9 of Trek America

We left Algonquin and headed straight back into civilisation. Our drive to Montreal was going to be around five hours, so to break it up, we decided we would make a pit stop in Canada's capital, Ottawa. It was a beautiful, sunny day, we stopped around dinner time and found a little park to make some dinner. Kaley gave us an hour to explore before we had to hop back on the road.

That's the thing about pain. It demands to be felt.

When the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve (or technically New Year's Day) I was probably the lowest I'd felt in quite a while. The last two months of 2016 were so emotionally draining. I deferred from university, my anxiety was at an all time high, and a relationship that I was quite invested in crashed and burned, and ultimately, I was left feeling exhausted, drained and really hurt.

Rain, Campfires and Smores: Days 1-5 of Trek America

I'm finally getting around to writing about my trip. Hand on heart, it was the best thing I've ever done in my life so far. It's making me feel so nostalgic, and while I have so many good things to look forward to, I am so excited to book myself on another trek.

The Magic of Algonquin Provincial Park

If you ever find yourself in Canada, then you need to visit Algonquin Provincial Park. When I was looking at booking my trip with Trek America, it was the days and activities planned in Algonquin that helped sway me to the Canadian Pioneer. Situated in the providence of Ontario, Algonquin spans over 3000 miles and holds over 1500 lakes. 

It is truly a special and magical place.
