    Just back from #Saskatoon. Over the month, I met Just back from #Saskatoon.

Over the month, I met the loveliest small-business owners, soaked up the incredible ambiance at the @stoon_tribal pow-wows, spent hours wandering the @remaimodern, and eating my way through the incredible food scene that exists in this little Prairie town on the edge of the South Saskatchewan River. 

And most delightful was visiting with some of the most amazing friends from my twenties. 

I was there to try the city out as my new hometown. While I'm not 100% certain of an imminent move, I leave with happy memories and new friends. And I'll be sharing stories over on @discoversaskatoon.

Thanks to the lovely Melissa at @spexbyryan for the photo (and the new spex).

I've been here for over a month, trying to decide if this should be my new hometown. I even started looking at property to purchase. And have been working on local projects which I'll share soon. 

While I haven't reached a decision just yet, I'm loving the sunshine and summertime vibes in this little Prairie town.

    Happy Monday from Fez. I've had the most amazing Happy Monday from Fez.

I've had the most amazing weekend seeing friends in Rabat and Moulay Idris. With all trains sold out on Sunday afternoon, I took a detour and ended up in Fes where I've checked in to the gorgeous @riadtizwa. We're sitting down to breakfast in this lovely spot with the sound of birdsong and views of the old city and mountains in the background.
