Day 43 - Getting Home (Part 3/3)

Hello friends! After  19537 km, 43 days, 10 provinces, 47 schools, 40 cities, 29 houses, and a lifetime of memories,  my road trip is now officially over as we made it back to Southern Ontario! It was such an amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I am grateful for all of it. Today Vanessa and I had the longest continuous drive of my trip when we drove from Thunder Bay to Hamilton in ~16.5 hours. At this point in the trip, I had gotten so used to driving long distances, so the time just flew by. On our drive, we stopped in Wawa to visit Canada's largest goose, which was quite triggering but pretty cool to see. I also learned that aside from Mississauga in the GTA, there is Mississauga First Nation, which is located between Sault Ste. Marie and Sudbury along the Trans Canada Highway. After the long drive, we finally made it to Hamilton and met up with some friends at a pub called "The Snooty Fax" for dinner. It's been such a wild trip, with so many amazing...

Day 41 - Getting Home (Part 1/3)

Hello friends, today was the first day of the trip back home, which Vanessa and I are doing over the span of 3 days (which is ridiculous). Today we drove from Revelstoke BC to Regina SK in ~12 hours, and only made 2 stops on the way (but Vanessa and I had some great life chats along the way). After finally leaving the mountains and hitting the prairies (which made the drive a lot easier, but significantly less scenic), we  stopped in Calgary to grab some food from Tim's, and then Vanessa took the wheel. As I was taking a nap, Vanessa tells me that the fuel light is on and that we were really low on gas, and the next gas station was half an hour away. After the most stressful drive of Vanessa's life and the lowest my fuel gauge has ever been, we made it to the gas station just in time before my car shut off. On our way out of the gas station, we drove by the World's Largest Teepee, which was pretty cool. As we entered Saskatchewan and got close to Regina, I got caught by a ...

Day 39 - BCIT, SFU Burnaby, SFU Surrey

Hello friends, today was another fantastic day made even better by the people I was with. Today Vanessa and I left Victoria and drove over to Swartz Bay to catch the ferry back towards Vancouver. When we got to the terminal, we decided to "help the local economy" by buying hot dogs and ice cream from one of the stands by the terminal (because who needs a well-balanced breakfast when you're travelling anyways). After being on the 1.5 hour ferry trip, I dropped Vanessa off at the Pepsi Company in Delta so that she could visit her former co-workers (she joined us later on in the day by busing to SFU), and I started making my visits to the campuses I had planned for the day. The first school I visited today was the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), and in my personal opinion there wasn't too much to see there, but it was still neat to see how the school operated. All of their buildings are named in terms of where they lie on campus, for example the bui...
