Under Construction 🏗

 


🚧 This blog is under construction! 🚧

Thanks for stopping by! I'm in the midst of collecting all the various writings I have floating around out there on the interwebs, and I'm putting them all here. Travel journals, random thoughts, gear reviews, and insights into the nomadic lifestyle. I even wrote a homeless how-to! Keep checking back for more as I update this page. 


Happy trails! 💜

Life after- Winter Sun.

  I promised myself I'd write more about my past, I don't see it at all as something to be ashamed of, but something to celebrate in many ways. First off, I survived.. and some would say that some of those years were the best years of my life. Living outside was once my preferred lifestyle. At first I had little choice in the matter, but once I got used to it, it wasn't easy to go back to being housed. I am still reminded in my everyday life what it was like to be on the outside, and I cherish those moments.. for those are the moments that people seek to achieve and have a hard time doing so, living 'in the now'.. being 'present'. It's one of those things that people in this rush and go society barely know, but out there.. every hour of every day is made up of moments. It's hard not to be present when every thing you do and every choice you make has an impact on the reality of your survival. I still have my cart, the one I used to load up from my st...

Five years ago todayish.. I stepped off a bus out in the canadian prairies and stuck out my thumb. I didn't have a plan, any idea where i'd end up, or any home to go back to. Just a tent, a rucksack and a little company. I walked away from a full time job, a nicely furnished apartment.. a sane, regular life that I had become bored of. I felt useless, stuck.. like I could do better for myself. so I cashed out my stocks, sold all my stuff and took off to find where I belong. And I took my time doing it. Time was all I had really, and enough loot to float by for a while. I didn't bother with a phone. Back then there wasn't plans like there are today, and a calling card was enough for when I came across a telephone. Random use of computers at libraries and internet cafes was my connection to the world. Each day was slow and steady. Every moment counted, everything was so brand new. I was wide open for whatever the wide open country would bring to me. Eventually, it brough...

  I used to hate on the idea of living in a basement.. just seems like a bad idea is all. Mostly paranoid about water really, but so far even my first leaky mishap was well worth the benefits that come with living underground. The first big rain we had leaked into our kitchen... totally my fault, I was gardening and forgot to replace the piping that carries the water away from the foundation.. woke up with a slick of water on the floor. After learning that lesson quickly, it's back to chillin'. After years of renting rooms and tenting seasonally, it's nice to have a space to call 'home'. Number one benefit of living sub-terra.. the temperature! When it's too cold, that's an easy fix. Space heaters and blankets work wonders. But when it's creeping up over a hundred degrees outside, it's easy to stay cool as a  cucumber  down here no AC required. I say as I sip on my cucumber apple lemonade, fresh from the juicer... Delicious and refreshing, perfect fo...
