I Read Books: Harry Potter

I've never really felt the urge to read Happy Potter. I was not pressured into it but I felt sort of left out, ya know, like the collective literary soul of intelligent and mindful people can't be wrong...

So I read Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

And yup, I get it. Rowling you are one classy lady. Harry, I will read on! Just not on the subway.

Anticipated South East Asia Adventure

I've recently decided I want to go on a great travel adventure once I graduate University. April 2011 has never seemed so far away. South East Asia - I'm coming!

My check-list thus far:
Taj Mahal, India
Golden Temple, India
Himalayas, Nepal or Tibet
Bangkok, Thailand (Phuket too)
Angkor Wat, Cambodia (see right)
Bali, Indonesia
Singapore

It would be amazing if I could make it to these places too:
The Maldives
Great Wall of China
Hong Kong

World List: Stockholm, Sweden

World List: Norhtern Ireland - Belfast and Giant's Causeway

Giant's Causeway was one of my favourite adventures. It was so beautiful in it's very special way.

World List: Scotland (8 Months)

I left Toronto on September 24,2008. Arrived in Edinburgh 6 hours later (I was lucky enough to find a direct flight) 2 days before my 21st birthday. Best. Decision. Yet.

It was 11 month before I returned to Toronto.

A lot of people asked my why I choose Edinburgh and to be honest I didn't. It was a process of elimination and I was very close to picking Dublin, which I'm sure I would have loved too. In this case the destination wasn't so important to me as the leaving part. Result: I don't think my imagination could have made a better trip abroad.
