So Catriona and I are off tonight, to take the 23:59 ferry to Newfoundland. We're staying 4 nights on the Rock, hiking and generally causing a ruckus, as we are well able. (She was trained in Scotland, I in Cape Breton and BC.) I've packed, and am wearing as many layers as I can stand, and have some food ready, and my wits sharpened, and have checked the weather forecast (all rain! all right...).
Upon returning, I'm off to Halifax, to see friends there and perhaps take in a Shambhala talk, and who knows what else. Did you know? When I get back from Halifax, it will be only two weeks until I'm leaving to be in Australia. This is too crazy to comprehend. So instead I will go do some things to fill my time, and when it comes time to fly out, I won't even be expecting it.

Me: a. on what level do you want to effect change in the world?
b. how do you perceive a human moment?
c. do you have a hard time getting out of bed when there's a lover in it?
d. what is your specialty? what is your trade?
e. kiss me

the human behind the bean
I'm a 27 year old Canadian woman. I grew up on Cape Breton Island, although my parents and their families are from Quebec and Ohio. Currently I live in Cape Breton, in a small town by the Bras D'Or Lake.
I can make a good soup and tie my own shoes. I've worked as a nanny, a potter's assistant, a shop clerk, and a janitor. I've also worked in a library, and taught computers to seniors. I've travelled to Australia and New Zealand and across Canada by train. I spent two and a half years in university before I left. I like the way the air smells in the Fall.
Since 2002 - this is my blog, a place for me to write about life, what I experience, to share my photography and my writing. I'm glad you're here!
