Hey there! I'm a late 30s guy living in Burnaby, Canada. I enjoy photography, adventures, food, craft beer, rhythm games, and seagulls.

Bonus: Two servings of avocado toast for $6.50. Unreal deal!

The end of a pleasant Sunday in Vancouver.
Golden hour at False Creek, Vancouver. A small red ferry passes in front of Science World and some modern highrise buildings.

At the Colliery Dam Park, there's a secret spring and waterfall that doesn't even show up on Google Maps. Neat.

I rented a kayak in Nanaimo and paddled around for a few hours, until my arms got sore. The scenery was cool. I went solo, but maybe next time I'll join a group expedition.
Looking ahead from my kayak. Dense forests and a narrow rocky shore.

I'm back from a little trip to Nanaimo! Solo traveling as usual. The weather was great, so I went on adventures that I missed out on last time. Here are a few of my favorite photos!
#Nanaimo
A high view of Nanaimo Harbour, looking east. Sunny day. A panoramic view of Nanaimo while looking south from Turtle Rock Peak. Overcast weather. A cool looking marsh, littered with tree logs and stumps. Algae and vegetation make this a very green scene. A nice view of Westwood Lake from the side of a cliff. Sunny weather with light clouds.

Ooh, rhubarb ale! This sour ale is super tart, but the rhubarb taste is perfect. #Beer
A glass of rhubarb tart wild ale by Luppolo Brewing. Very pink!

Today's treat: Canada Day ketchup chip cookies! 🤔

Canada Day is a week away, but these cookies are already available at Breka locations in Vancouver. Will the ketchup chips make this cookie a fan favorite?
Two Canada Day cookies on a decorative paper foil. There are crumbled ketchup chips on top.

I'm staying in downtown Vancouver for a week! It's a different vibe than Burnaby, for sure.
Looking out the window of an apartment building in downtown Vancouver. Concrete jungle.

It was a perfect day to go on a leisurely hike. Mundy Park, Coquitlam.
