WHEN BEING AT HOME BRINGS THOUGHTS OF BEING ABROAD

I’ve spent the last 5 days or so laying in bed, taking it easy at home without leaving the house. Let’s just say for someone like me… I got pretty stircrazy!

I despise being sick, mostly because it keeps me from doing all the things that I love to do!

Short and sweet photo post today.. I wanted to share with you some of my photographs that I’ve taken while traveling abroad. Laying in bed made me dream of traveling again and everything I love about seeing new places.

Places I've Been

I’ve plotted out all the places I’ve traveled so far on this map… still so many places I want to see!

Of course, nothing compares to home… and while I do love traveling, I will always be a Vancouver girl, a West Coast girl. Living on the West Coast… there really is no places like home…

    Great shots as always, you should check out my blog/flickr for my new pictures.

    Hope you’ll feel better soon, stuck at home sick isn’t fun especially when it’s so nice outside.

    Y’know, it’s a testament to your skills with a camera (and having a kickass camera too) that your photos frequently make my instinct kick in of going ‘nah, that’s photoshopped… or is it?’ ;)

    I need to do a post like this one. Sorry to hear you were sick, but I love your landscape photography! Happy Travels!

    i hope you’re much better; it sucks being sick. if i can have a favorite, i think it’s the japanese countryside one. it’s so serene.

    how did you get to become such a accomplished photographer?

  8. eternalcanadian Says:

    Finally made it to your blog. I’m impressed! Gorgeous photos and the way you describe things takes the reader into a different world!

    I’m very interested in that map gadget you used to plot out all the places you’ve traveled, which is why I am commenting here because I wanted to ask what it is and where can one find it.

    I notice there are no pins in the UK :)

    Great photos. The shot in New York is cool!

    Wow ! You traveled a lot !
    If you like Vancouver’s landscape, you can’t but love Ardèche’s one in France.
    Green everywhere, forests, mountains, rivers… that’s Ardèche. (I was born here. But I prefer citys, haha)

    I´m agree with you, there´s nothing like our home. But I note that you never have come to South América, why? I´m from Uruguay and my country is really, really wonderful. We have a lot of natural beachs and my people is really friendly… believe me you must come some day because I note that you have a lot of sensibility for the great and small beatiful things of life, your photos are a mirror of that. Excuse my poor english but I don´t use it usually.
