So much has happened over the course of a year that my brain can barely comprehend it. The short story is that I have been very busy.

January 2014 Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario

The long story is very long and I will spare you. It includes a move to Toronto, a trip to Paris and London, hiking in Vermont, and multiple adventures up and down the Eastern Seaboard and throughout Ontario. And that's just the travel.

There have been so many highs and lows, loss and love, family dinners, beautiful weddings, hours spent commuting in traffic, and unexpected work contracts that stretched (mercifully) from weeks to months. It's been a lot of work and a lot of fun, and I've really missed Histoire Travel and this blog. I felt a little sheepishly apologetic about writing again when I finally sat down to do it.

But I'm back! So watch this space and the rest of the website. I have a whole backlog of adventures to share plus a new layout with separate sections for my favorite destinations and helpful tips and tricks. It's a work in progress, but it's progressing.
