BC Ferries Yam Fries


 Four months, 13 countries, endless love and memories. I cannot believe I’m already writing the last blog of this trip! The time has flown by.


This evening we left London for our last flight of the summer, our flight home to Canada. We spent September 2nd similar to how we spent May 2nd - walking around Hampstead Heath and stopping for feast at Ginger and White Café.

It felt so surreal to be back in London exactly four months after we got here! The seasons had changed, leaves were falling, but the city felt somewhat familiar, comfortable almost.

As we took the tube to the airport I felt nostalgic for our travels already - it’s been such a unique experience.

I won’t lie, I teared up a little bit waving goodbye to London from above.

At least we got some yummy airplane food to soothe our souls… and I’m not even joking! British Airways serve some great dinners.

Our magnificent trip would not have been possible without so many kind family and friends who supported us along the way! To everyone who let us crash on your couch, and showed us around your city, to everyone who hosted us to kindly, thank you.


Travel really brings people together, and I hope one day to pay it back and host our loved ones in our home town.


And as I sit on the plane and write this blog, I can’t help but muse about our next adventure. It may be a while, but the stunning mountains we see over Greenland are just calling for us to visit one day….

And now, against all odds, we made it from landing at the airport to getting on the ferry, all within one hour! So I get to enjoy the lovely sunset and yummy BC Ferries yam fries, while anticipating my mom’s perfect chicken soup waiting for me at home.

It feels good to be rooted in one place again, feels good to be home.

We had an absolutely stunning day today! Although we spent about 3 hours driving from Lagos to Sintra on Portuguese tolled highways, our time in both those cities was incredible. We had a fantastic breakfast spread in our hotel today, and we we spent about 45 minutes tasting Portuguese delicacies, including tomato and pumpkin jams, honey fresh from the comb, and many breads and baked goods. Delicious breakfast We were now fueled to take a walk on the beautiful boardwalk in Lagos. We walked along the Atlantic towards the Ponta da Piedade, a rocky outcrop where a small lighthouse stands. The water was a gorgeous blue, the sandstone cliffs a calm beige, and the weather was on our side gracing us with a nice cool breeze.  Gorgeous cliffside Made it to the end of the boardwalk! This is definitely a place we’ll have to return to…I would love to do a kayak trip along the coastline and explore the beautiful rock formations from below.

  Today we finally got some chilly weather… which I was unprepared for! However, our last day in Stockholm was still wonderful.  We started the cloudy morning with a ferry ride to another one of Stockholms islands. Our destination was the Vasa Museum.  Our ferry boat (which is a part of public transport here!) The Vasa Museum is one of the most popular museums in Scandinavia as it houses a fully preserved shipwreck from 1628. The Vasa was constructed in 1628 and set sail from Stockholm… unfortunately it only reached about 1km offshore before sinking! The imposing hull of the Vasa Reportedly, the Vasa was top-heavy, so when a huge gust of wind tipped her, water poured into her open gun ports, quickly sinking the ship. The Vasa lay on the bottom of the Baltic Sea for 333 years, where the low salinity of the water helped to preserve her.  Model of the divisions in the hull of the Vasa  Perfectly preserved wooden carvings on the ship Model of the Vasa setting sail T...
