Hi everyone, This is my first week in Edmonton, so I thought it would be a nice opportunity to give a first impression of the trip and Canada itself. Canada is a beautiful country wih lots of mountains and blablablablablablabla. Yeah, that is exactly what this blog is not for. To have you all read this and take the risk I will bore you to death or get you fired, because you thought it would be a good idea to read this at work and are drooling over your keyboard right now. Edmonton is a nice ...

We left from Jasper pretty early in the morning. We seemed to be the first ones awake on the campsite as we pulled away on the frosty road, slightly bitter at the site of warm campers and RVs lining the road. So we were back on the road, back on bear watch, and heading towards Edmonton. We didn't know quite what to expect from Edmonton... what we sure didn't expect was the heat wave that encompassed our car as we drove on the highway. It was almost unbearable in our land rover with no air con...

No, not the movie, "the city"..........Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, that is.................. The North Saskatchewan River meanders smack dab through the middle of downtown Edmonton  which goes on to join the Saskatchewan and Nelson Rivers to flow into Hudson Bay, and ultimately, to the Atlantic Ocean.  My travels will not take me that far today but I will try to get in as much "face time" as I can with one of my favorite Canadian cities. Our hotel is in the city centre and just a s...

Well I took the plunge and booked my ticket for Lima. March 31 - May 15. I guess I will be going whether I like it or not as it is non-refundable! LOL! Time to get my shots in order...

32 states in the US and 8 in Canada. Travelled Canada and the USA from coast to coast within five months. Travelled mostly by train, sometimes by coach. In total 33.000 km (20.000 miles).

Just 6-7 photos from Edmonton, Canada.

I went for a conference in Vancouver in summer 2007. So I stayed there for some days and then travelled to Edmonton and Calgary as well.

Just thought i'd make this travelogue to show an overview of the places i've travelled in the last 10 years. In development!

How boring this city?

This years winter vacation with my friends. We set sail from Los Angeles and headed South to Cabo San Lucas, Matzatlan, and Puerto Vallarta. It was a Royal Caribbean cruise ship - the Vision of The Seas.

My firends are either at work or at school, so I have a chance to update this. I don't know how long I'm going to stay here. My flight leaves Monday, but I might see about pushing it up, although monday isn't too far away. There just isn't that much to do here. I want to get on with my adventure and see what the world has for me.

5 weeks of backpacking around Cambodia and Thailand for our honeymoon! Can't wait!

Als ich morgens aufgewacht bin, lag Alberta bereits weit zurück und "The Canadian" war bereits unterwegs durch Saskatchewan, nach Osten hin die nächste Provinz Kanadas. In der aufgehenden Sonne hat das trockene Gras golden geleuchtet, dazwischen sind immer wieder kleine dunkle Seen und Teiche aufgetaucht. Große Städte gibt es hier nicht, der Zug fährt an einigen sehr kleinen Siedlungen vorbei, teilweise mit weniger als 100 Einwohnern. Wer hier aussteigen will, muß seinen Haltewunsch 48 ...

In four and a half months I will leave for Europe.  When I was seventeen I thought the best year of my life would be when I was 24.  I thought it was this ideal age where you were still young and could have fun, but old enough to have money, be on your own, and actually afford the freedom to follow your whims.  Of course, I'm sure this is at least somewhat related to the fact that I semi-idolized a twenty-four year old who packed his bags and heft for Hollywood with n...
