It was a Summer of Wine, Musicals and Road Trips It was a Summer of Wine, Musicals and Road Trips By Megan Cutler | October 8, 2018 | Comments 2 comments This summer passed so quickly for my husband and I that our heads are still spinning. We tried to front-load all our travels so that we’d have a nice, quiet August. But often even the best plans are laid to waste. Then again, when your friends have a choice between crashing at your house for … Read More Read More
Treasure of the B.C. Coast Treasure of the B.C. Coast By Megan Cutler | October 31, 2016 | Comments 3 comments While we were in Vancouver to experience the Greenheart Tree Walk and the Museum of Anthropology, we decided to visit the aquarium. Because, as I mentioned before, I’m always up for a trip to an aquarium. Since it hasn’t been that long since we visited Ripley’s Aquarium in Toronto, it’s difficult not to compare the … Read More Read More
Don’t Forget Your Towel Don’t Forget Your Towel By Megan Cutler | September 12, 2016 | Comments 2 comments I don’t have a lot of experience with hot springs. In fact, most of my knowledge comes from anime, and I’m going to assume all of it is wrong. So when my in-laws suggested a couple of nights stay in a cabin near one, I was all for it. Turns out we only live about … Read More Read More
Under the Sea Under the Sea By Megan Cutler | August 22, 2016 | Comments 1 comment I have a thing for jellyfish. I keep Monterey Bay Aquarium’s live jellyfish cam bookmarked for stress relief. I could probably watch jellyfish float all day and be content. (Did someone say jellyfish?) But jellyfish aren’t my only underwater loves. Aquariums are one of my favorite places to visit and I haven’t been to one … Read More Read More
The Local Search for Ultimate Bliss The Local Search for Ultimate Bliss By Megan Cutler | July 18, 2016 | Comments 2 comments The best way to get to know a new place is to go exploring. Though our initial months in our new town were a flurry of activity while we settled in, the summer months offered plenty of time to relax and enjoy the amazing weather. One of our favorite things to do in New Town … Read More Read More
Opening a New and Exciting Life Chapter Opening a New and Exciting Life Chapter By Megan Cutler | May 2, 2016 | Comments 3 comments Moving across an ocean is hard. It’s slightly easier when you know people waiting for you on the other side, but that doesn’t make it any less challenging. When we left for England, we had no idea what to expect. We didn’t really know anyone on the other side of the pond, and we expected … Read More Read More
A Truly Impressive View A Truly Impressive View By Megan Cutler | May 4, 2015 | Comments 1 comment It may sound strange, but one of my favourite parts of our trip to Scotland was our drive across the country. There are some truly impressive landscapes in Scotland and I’m not sure I can do justice to them with words. A picture really is worth a thousand. After our trip to Dunnotar Castle, we … Read More Read More
Summer Vacation! Summer Vacation! By Megan Cutler | July 28, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment English schools run quite a bit later than we’re used to. Here we are at the end of July and we’ve finally reached hubby’s first full week of summer vacation! (Canadian Schools finished back in June!) They get lots of little breaks throughout the year instead (which was strange for us, but also convenient). So … Read More Read More
Medieval Guildford Medieval Guildford By Megan Cutler | June 16, 2014 | Comments 1 comment When company came to visit from across the ocean, we put together a large itinerary that would let us hit all the major sites. But when all was said and done, we had an extra day with nothing planned. It fell at the beginning of the trip, so we decided to hit somewhere close to … Read More Read More
Off to See the Sights! Off to See the Sights! By Megan Cutler | April 7, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment Since we moved to England, I’ve been looking forward to hosting visitors. My husband’s parents are working on seeing the world. They go someplace new every year. Since we happen to be living in a place they haven’t seen yet, this year they’re coming to visit! On top of that, a very good friend of … Read More Read More
