Far Away Travels

I’ve definitely never travelled as far and wide as I had last August. While not as big asn OE, still huge personally. My travels first led me to Portland, OR, then on to Victoria, BC.

In Portland, I met one of my best friends, Taras, of eight years, and his then-fiancee-now-wife in person for the very first time. And I, being my shy self, didn’t manage to break out of my shell very well. But I did meet a bunch of wicked cool people whom I hope to keep in touch with.

And I also got to be there at Taras and Ellen’s beautiful wedding. The setting was perfect, at David Hill Winery. Unfortunately, I had a high fever, so missed out on a lot of the night. But what I did manage to catch was definitely memorable.

And my favourite part of the whole trip? When Taras and I hugged in his hallway after getting back from the wedding and reception. Seems like such a silly thing, but it really touched me and made the whole trip worthwhile.
