I saw this photo on another blog and had to track it down. I can feel the cold air on my cheeks and hear the snow under my boots. I am totally romanticising winter.

It was so nice to see the rest of the album is beautiful too! Lovely clothes and wandering around outside. Two of the best things.

I cannot tell you how much I love this book. Anything eerie (not thriller, psycho murderer stuff)  is so great to me. I remember first finding this book on my classroom shelf when I was in grade four and eating it up, not even knowing who Ray Bradbury was at the time.  If anybody knows anywhere online I can buy a copy with the cover on the left, please let me know!

Yes please. Sweden is on my list of places to visit, I do believe I will stay in a treehouse when I go there.

Okay, it’s not really online. My mom is from there and tonnes of my family live there and I love it so much. Should you ever have the chance you should definitely visit.  Here are some things to wet your whistle.

  • Cheers Newfoundland A snowboarding video filmed in St. Johns (my husband is a crazy snowboarder, he goes every weekend in the winter)
  • Getting Screeched In People with no Newfie blood in them have to get screeched in. It seems to vary from town to town but usually the ceremony always involves kissing a cod fish and taking a shot of Screech

This is where my grandparents used to live. One summer a chunk of iceberg broke off and floated into the cove where we could touch it. It was the size of a washing machine by the time it reached us but my siblings and I were still super excited because we were 10ish years old.

Thanks to my brother for sharing this amazing travel blog. Beware, there is a lot of poor grammar, but it is worth wading through the strange sentences. I laughed out loud.
