Day Trips on Vancouver Island | Canada
After several weeks exploring California and a brief stop back in Vancouver, I decided to spend the month of May on Vancouver Island. I’d spent a weekend in Victoria back in November and had realised I definitely wanted to come…
A Week in San Francisco | California
The final stop on my travels through California was a week-long stay in San Francisco. I also tacked on a weekend in Napa Valley too, which I nearly made into a separate post. But since it was only one day…
A Week in Monterey | California

One of the reasons I chose British Columbia over Canada’s other provinces for my working holiday (at least to start with) is the abundance of hiking opportunities. Although, arriving in autumn means I’ll save a lot of them until spring…
