On top of Mt. Erskine... stunning views from this little Salt Spring Island mountain on Easter weekend! There are a couple of routes up: one is super steep - straight up! - we saw lots of sweaty, panting people come off this trail, at the top! The other is a little longer and windier (still less than an hour up), which we obviously chose! Still, I was sweaty and panting šŸ˜‚ There are supposedly lots of fairy doors along the trail, although we looked hard and only found 3! Either way, great hike, stunning views; a nice adventure after the famous Saturday market! šŸ’Ŗ šŸ—» šŸ§šā€ā™‚ļø šŸ’Ŗ #WheresTheSweatyEmoji #šŸ˜…šŸ˜ŖšŸ˜“šŸ˜¢šŸ˜µ #MountErskine #SaltSpringIsland #ssi #gulfislands #BeautifulBc #britishcolumbia #bc #pnwbc #pnw #explorebc #westcoastbestcoast #travelstoke #travelgram #wearetravelgays #lgbtqtravelers #lesbiantravel #queertravel #queersinnature #explorecanada #canada
Usually it's @swifttuttle who's scrambling up rocks, but when she couldn't make it to Tofino with us last month, my dad filled in šŸ˜‚. My mom and I snapped photos while grumbling about how we did NOT sign up for carrying him on the hike back if he broke anything!

Last week's trip to Tofino was all about LIGHT! Magical fairytale forest light like this, on the Tonquin Trail to the beach right before sunset; watching the sky change colours and create silhouettes in the evenings on the beaches; sparkles reflecting off the waves... oh yeah and the light hitting my @tacofinotofino fish tacos and @tofinobrewco Kelp Stout juuuust right!!! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ ā˜€ļø šŸŒ® šŸŗ šŸŒ³ šŸŒ… #tofinolight #tofino #tofinobc #yourtofino #tonquinbeach #tacofino #kelpstout #vancouverisland #explorevanisle #shareVI #vanisland #explorebc #hellobc #damgoodtrips #travelstoke #travel #traveldeeper #queertravel #pnw #pnwbc #westcoastbestcoast #explorecanada #canada
Last week was a really REALLY long week. House ownership can be a butt! BUT, this week is March Break and I'm lucky enough to be in Tofino with my parents, who are visiting from Ottawa. Yesterday on our way in, we stopped to hike a small loop of the Wild Pacific trail in Ucluelet and were treated to these views and incredible springy weather! We counted whale spouts from shore as I got my first sunburn of the season šŸ˜‚. šŸŒ“ šŸ‹ šŸ³ ā˜€ļø #whalespoutsofinstagram #tofino #tofinobc #yourtofino #ucluelet #wildpacifictrail #travelstoke #beautifulbc #vancouverisland #explorebc #explorevanisle #vanisland #exploretofino #britishcolumbia #pnw #pnwbc #westcoastbestcoast #damgoodtrips #traveldeeper #lesbiantravel #queertravel #explorecanada
Happy Friday! Happy March! Here's a throwback to last summer when we hiked up Tin Hat Mountain on the Sunshine Coast Trail. First thing I did once we got up there was free my feet & second was a (ridiculous šŸ˜†) photoshoot, because priorities! The rest of the afternoon/evening involved lying on the rocks in the sun, listening to podcasts and taking in the incredible views before sleeping for FREE in this communal hut. It's a tough climb, but it's worth it. šŸ“·: @swifttuttle šŸ‘£ šŸ“· šŸ—» šŸ’Ŗ #tadaweclimbedamountain #tinhatmountain #sunshinecoastbc #sunshinecoasttrail #womenwhohike #beautifulbc #explorebc #britishcolumbia #damgoodtrips #westcoastbestcoast #pnwbc #pnw #wearetravelgays #lesbiantravel #lgbtqtravelers #queertravel #lesbian #travel #travelstoke #explorecanada #canada
Finding treasures in the forest on the second snow day in a ROW!! (Well, poor Kyla had to work but it's snow problem to take a little break.) This weather is suuuper rare in Victoria, and everyone seems to be out and about playing, sledding (us too!), making snow people... that's the one thing I miss about winter back home so it's nice to get a little taste of it out here! ā„ ā˜ƒļø ā„ ā˜ƒļø #snowmuchfun #iglovesnowpuns #wetcoastwinter #yyj #victoriabc #explorevictoria #explorevanisle #vancouverisland #explorebc #victoriabuzz #vanisland #beautifulbc #damgoodtrips #lezziegram #britishcolumbia #explorecanada #travelstoke #lesbiantravel #queertravel #canada
New blog post: Heyyy did I ever tell you that we stayed in a treehouse (kinda) in Cuba?? Kyla discovered these cool "rustic cabins" in Las Terrazas, an eco village about an hour from Havana.
