3 days 5 cities


Safe at last in Canada.

I made the journey back to the Western lifestyle with both Dave and Trevor in one piece with almost all my belongs and more. Once in Toronto, trev and I were apparently placed on drug suspision, but lucky i left all my drugs in Lima... heheh just kidding. Although I really wanted to bring cocoa leaves back. They made amazing tea, but its unfortunitely illegal in Canada.

The airport, even in Lima, brought me back into the western world of structure and order. Wine was no longer 3$, it was 20-100$. The expense of the western developed world is high because luxury is a nessesity.

I long for the unfamilar... so that is why i am moving to abbotsford for the summer to work.

In the last couple days I have gone from Lima, Peru to Toronto to Calgary to Abbotsford to Vancouver. I spent only 7 hours in Calgary visiting with my Calgary friends. It is funny after being away for a month then coming home, u can tel who ur friends are. Some we willing to down their plans to see me briefly and others were like sorry i cant no time. It makes u wonder. Dani, Joel, Leah and James are close amazing people that I will consider my true friends regardless of what happens.

I slept at my grandparent house and got a chance to visit with my Cousin who is pregant with a little baby boy. I havent truely visited with my cousin in a long time. It was good. My grandparents volunteered to transport my shit and me to abbotsford, without them I dont know what i would have done. They were patient with all my travel plan changes.

We safely arrived to abbotsford on June 1st in time to move into my new house. It is beautiful and clean. The restaurant we ate at was located just around the corner from my new house next door to a sushi restaurant.

I unpacked and met the new roomies.

I just couldnt wait to get to vancouver to visit Jasmine and Dave, they are the my traveling buddies for asia. I havent seen Jazz in 6 months. And the greyhound ticket roundtrip to vancouver is only 16$ so i can visit her lots and Amy too.

So in 3 days i was in

Lima --> Toronto --> Calgary --> Abbotsford --> Vancouver

who knows maybe seattle tomorrow
