I’m excited to be partnering with #DegreeDeos #Ad to talk about the of benefits of Degree Women UltraClear Black + White Pure Rain Dry Spray Antiperspirant. With my active lifestyle, I am always 'on the go'. Whether I am out running, hiking, biking, kayaking, and or simply on the move, #DegreeCA helps to prevent white marks and stains on my clothes thanks to anti-white mark + yellow stain technology. Having that reliability in a spray is great, and I know I’m being protected as I move from one adventure to the next.

I honestly can’t believe how fast this summer is going by... I finished classes mid April and since then have done so much. From Hawaii in May, to Colorado, South Dakota, The Yukon, Alaska, Whistler, the Okanagan, all the hiking and back country trips around here, along with time at the cabin and at home with friends and family. I can def say I’ve taken full advantage of my 4 months off. Even though I have loved every second of it I am also lookin’ forward to getting back into routine here in a couple weeks in classes. It’ll be back to being a weekend warrior yet again! My love of hiking has taken me all over, and I am excited to see what more of the island has to offer! @eddiebauer #ebcontributor #liveyouradventure #whyihike
QUESTION: A friend just asked me yesterday ‘If you could change ONE thing in your life what would it be. Or would you change anything at all?’ The couple friends around me jumped quickly to say what exactly that would be... from ‘I wish I was taller’, to ‘I wish I lived closer to my family’, though I struggled with it. I honestly couldn’t decide what I would change about my own self, and my life in general. So I’m putting that question out to you all, to simply ponder over, or if you’re willing to, to share in the comments below. Little food for thought ❤️

It’s quite funny because for those who know me well (or not even that well) would pick up on the fact I’m VERY indecisive. I don’t know what it is or why I am that way, but I am. From deciding what I’ve wanted to do in school, jobs, relationships, travel plans, day to day plans, hikes I wanna do, where to go for dinner, when I’m at the store deciding between purchases (small to large), I’ve always been one to seek advice from others or calling my mother or friends with pictures, like the pair of Birks I bought the other day. I think that comes from also being a ‘people pleaser’ and wanting to always make sure everyone’s happy. Even me not being able to decide what the heck I would change about my life shows my indecisiveness. I think that would have to be my biggest flaw, and perhaps in the end what I would change about myself? Being more black and white with my own decisions, and having more certainty in what it is I want in this life @keencanada 🤷🏼♀️

Thanks @leahtylerszucki for assisting with this pic and joining in on this adventure 👆🏼
My phone drank a little too much this weekend at the lake soooo on an very old iPhone currently, with zero updates. Let's just say you truly don't realize how much the 'tech world' has progressed till you're forced back a couple years... Also sifting through old photos (one pictured above), messages and things has been quite entertaining. Hope you all had a great long weekend! I decided to stick around the cabin and spend the time with family and friends. Running, road biking, boating and just chillin' out. Thanks @rebeccafairburn for puttin' up with my Alberta road bike tours... I also don't know about yal, but there's a wild heat wave comin' our way, think all those days will be spend IN the water 😨 #freshairandfreedom #banff #cascademountain #explorealberta
Wake up. Coffee. Run/workout. Second coffee. Food. Kayak. Food. Read. Wine. Late dinner (cause it’s way too hot to eat earlier). Bed. Repeat again today. Lovin’ it out here. Osoyoos, BC is like my second home. My family had been coming out here every summer with our motorhome and ‘water toys’ since I was little. Last summer was the first year we hadn’t because we instead my parents decided to get a cabin which is closer to home, in Alberta. Instead of a holiday spot that’s 10+ hours from home, it’s a quick 25 minute drive door to door. It’s been bittersweet, starting a new chapter, as change isn’t always easy but it also allows for a new memories to happen. With four girls growing up, having our own lives, trying to plan a time in the summer where all of us can come and be together is never to impossible, and we can also use our cabin year round. Osoyoos will always be here to visit ✌🏼☀️💦

Also two things: hoping the interior gets some rain this week to clear away all the smoke 👆🏼 Still pretty, but I’d love to see some clear blue. Second: I get a lot of questions from people asking about the brand of _______ in my photo/ posts. I do my best to tag all the brands/what I’m wearing and the gear I use. I do so to help all you guys out, I don’t mind replying to DM’s but many I can’t get too/it can be repetitive. Always remember if you ‘tap’ the photo it will bring up tags/links to the different pages/gear items! ❤️❤️❤️ Example, yes this is an @orukayak and my bathing suit is @aerie 😬 Much love! #osoyoos #okanaganlove #aeriereal
