About this blog

In November of 2007 I was diagnosed with breast cancer... a life changing moment. Surgery, radiation and chemo all went well and now I'm healthy. In February 2008 I celebrated a milestone... my 40th birthday. Another life changing moment! In September 2008 I went back to university to continue to pursue obtaining my Kinesiology degree. But, something was missing... I was in such a hurry to 'get back to normal' that I didn't take the time to figure out what my life was all about. So... my husband and I decided I needed to take some time to find myself. And what better place to do that than Asia! Over the next 6 months I'll be travelling to Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Nepal, China and India and sharing my experiences. Enjoy!
