Empire State Of Mind 🌒 Two weeks in NYC was more than enough for me 🇺🇸 It’s such a busy, bright, eccentric place with so much to see and do 🗽 But being in the big city reminded me that I’m a country girl at heart 🌾 I think I need a week of relaxation in a cabin in the woods or hammock by the ocean to recover 🏔🌊😴

Happy birthday to this handsome guy @matt_northrup 🥳🎉 #honourtoquechallenge #birthdaypost

Liberty Enlightening the World 🇺🇸🗽 . ⬆️ The translation from French for the gifted statue that’s become an American monument . Relevant today as always... 🌎

Do you care about being “likeable”? 🤔 . One of my favourite lectures in my MFA program this week was a discussion about likability. It was almost posed as a negative thing to want to be liked; as if it’s better to not care. . But you know what? I do care. I care enough to come to NYC and pay for an MFA and spend hours writing and editing my book. I do want people to like it. More than that, I hope people resonate with and respect my words. . What about you? Do you strive to be “likeable”? . 📷: @jenn_verma

Six years ago today, I woke up to this view. I went snowboarding on these mountains, wearing this shirt. I took a jump in the board park at Alpe d’Huez, completely unaware my entire life was about to change. . Six years ago today, I was a 20-year-old strong enough to carry a 50-lbs backpack across Europe. I’d travelled through 10 to 20 countries in past six months and had no intention of coming home anytime soon. . Six years ago today, I woke up with a healthy, unbroken body. . But when I fell asleep, it was in a hospital with a snapped spine that would never be the same. . Be grateful every day you wake up healthy. Live like it’s your last, because life won’t give you any warning when it will be. Celebrate healing and recovery. And among life’s daily worries and imperfections, remember what really matters to you 🏔🙏🏼

This summer, I developed a slight fear of heights 😬 Today, I jumped up on the Brooklyn Bridge and remembered why I love them so much 🙌🙈😍 . #adrenalinerush #brooklynbridge #nyctourist #canadiantraveller #newyorknewyork #sorrymom
