Montenegro- Day 1



Snow covered mountains

After being home for just over a week Phil and I sauntered off to Montenegro. We booked our trip way back around Christmas time and managed to snag a really good deal. Our flight out was pretty early so after checking our bags we made a beeline for Pret for some breakfast sandwiches and tea. After a two and a half hour flight, we collected our bags, waited in line to pick up our rental car and changed our clothes before starting our drive to Petrovac.

The first thing we did once we found our apartment was put on our swimsuits and went off to the beach.

Home Sweet Home




Although I was only home for a quick visit one of my best friends came up with a list of 17 things to do to make sure I made the most of my time home. Even though we didn't quite manage to cross them all off, we made a nice dent in the list as well as adding a few extras such as a backyard sauna session, 3 separate birthday celebrations, PHO and my very first Zumba class. In addition to the list I managed to incorporate working, catching up on all my appointments and spending time with my family. Time went by way too quickly and I can't wait for my next visit back to the West Coast of Canada.

Hair today, gone tomorrow

Most of you who know me know I never change my hair. I hate hairdressers and always take off the minimum amount of hair that has to go. With it being a new year I thought I should try out a new look. I chopped off a good amount of hair and am now sporting a Lob (Long Bob), still getting used to how much shampoo and conditioner to use and how to style it but it's growing on me.
