Portobello Trailhead
Perfect day for Bike ride to the Portobello Trailhead. It was nice that there was little traffic today because one end of the Waverley road is closed for bridge construction and only locals are driving. Portobello Trailhead is one of my favourite trail near our place. Because of the bridge construction, Even though the Portobello […]
Calle Flamenca
During the summer, I participated in several intensive flamenco workshops by Maria Osende, each lasting two or three days, whenever my schedule allowed. The final three-day session focused on Bulerías, a challenging dance style. Over the course of those three days, we immersed ourselves in the music, rhythm, palmas, and footwork, culminating in the choreography […]
Riding the Waves for a Letter
The mailbox is about a kilometer from our house, and Sam usually check it while driving. But since the weather was nice that day, I decided to go by kayak. The blue sky and green trees reflected on the lake, with the sparkling waves, seemed to herald the beginning of an adventure. When I arrived […]
Getting ready for summer

Sam, always striving for simplicity, innovates his approach each year to make the process as effortless as possible. Ready for summer in every way.

I went ice skating for the first time in about 20 years. When I stepped onto the ice, my legs were shaking with fear, but I slowly […]

Cheers with sake in Igloo
Nova Scotia was hit with a rare heavy snowfall. The daily snowfall at our B&B was a good workout just to get rid of the snow from our driveway. We decided to do something with the heavy snow and created Igloo. We toasted with sake in Igloo. Main dish is Oden which is a type […]
