Wow, I can’t believe we sold our house! and I’ve started a blog. But what better way to document this epic journey we are about to embarc on. Its like the modern day Dear Diary.
A quick reintroduction if you missed the about me. I’m Melanie: A Vancouver Island born and raised, beach loving, barefoot gardening kind of girl. My husband and I are about to take on the rest of Canada as we move across this incredible country with our 2 kids. All the way from Vancouver Island to Nova Scotia, 4,562 km to be exact. Once we get there, we hope to find a simpler, more affordable lifestyle. And get to enjoy a slower pace while still going out to find adventure. I also can’t wait to check out the sea life and get my hands on an east coast tide guide! Sharing the risk and adventure is my husband Chris, who has been an Islander since age 4, doesn’t care for swimming much but takes us to the beach anyways. Along for the ride is our teen age son, lets call him Moose, and our preteen daughter, she’ll go by Bowie.
We’d better get down to business and get some more packing done, as we are now on count down.
Short and sweet, but much more to come.
Cheers xo Mel
