Cultivate your wild self

I'm not sorry for my hiatus, as in my spare time I have been discovering the wonderful depths of the Canadian Rockies. School, volunteering, and the mountains (which I refer to as majestic goddesses) have been consuming my life so far this year. I just got back from Sasquatch and I am currently enrolled in my last pre-req for Vet Med. Many new blog posts to look forward to this summer: the gypsy den (my new home), new art studio, hikes, fashion, and island adventures! I hope my hiking pictures inspire you all to get outside more. Allow the outdoors to cultivate your wild self. I'll leave you with a quote from this book, "A hike isn't emotionally rewarding solely because of the destination. We want to be wowed along the way by stately trees, profuse wildflowers, plunging gorges, rocky escarpments. Watching a stream charge on its journey is a delight. Trails carved into rugged mountainsides are enthralling. Solitude is a sustaining necessity of life. Observing wild creatures is a primal joy. The closer we get to gleaming glaciers and piercing peaks, the more ecstatic we feel. High, airy, eye-stretching, soul-expanding perches thrill us most of all"
