Go Your Own Way

They say that your mind processes around 15,000 images every day {don't quote me on that}. In the Rockies, every one of them is a postcard.
I'm not sure if it was mist or snow that had descended on the mountains but either way it looked like an Albert Bierstadt painting. I really can't describe the Rockies without diminishing their quality and my photos don't do them justice. I don't know if I've ever seen anything as beautiful. Most of the time I'm standing with my jaw on the floor or wishing I was on the bus longer but I suppose that'd leave less time for adventure.
The best part of the journey for me was watching the little old man's face opposite me as he saw everything for the first time...priceless. There's nothing sweeter than someone who is truly fascinated by where they are, especially when they're frail and cute. I hope I still love life at that age.
Seriously though, like, it's actually amazing!


Ps. I listened to Fleetwood Mac the whole 3 hours and it was epic. Just a little tip for ya!

Sometimes all there is to do...(edited)

...is take pictures of leaves.
We're in Kelowna, BC, now for a couple of days. I'm not sure whether it's down to the fact we've just been sharing a 4 bed dorm with two smelly boys but this place already seems pr-etty niice. Tuesday night is movie night but the guys are playing fifa so instead I'm catching up on the presidential debates 'cause I don't like fun and I couldn't think of a nerdier thing to do.
However tomorrow night, ladies and gentleman, is pumpkin carving night!! I'm super crazy {with a cherry on top} excited for this and no one's going to carve a better pumpkin than me...or sh*t's gon' get nasty.



These photos are actually from a solo walk of mine which was some sort of relaxing. No "WTF are you doing?"'s or explanations needed as to why the f*ck I was rolling about in leaves. Camera MADNESS.
