So where do I begin....Sorry for the lack of posts from me as of late, these past couple months have been a whirl wind with traveling around to 6 different countries, as well as picking up my life and moving to Vancouver Canada where our National team was residing for final preparation for the 2012 Olympic games.

Over the years I have been extremely lucky to travel the world with my job, I have seen most of europe, travelled through parts of the UK, dipped my toes in South America and had an eye opening experience in Russia.

When a friend asked me travel through Slovenia, my initial reaction was "Are you serious?" what could I possibly do in Slovenia for a whole week?When I... [Keep Reading]

I visited communities and met the people who called this home. I experienced their food, education system and living situations. There are no words to describe the environments I experienced...

Sorry for the lack of posts from me lately, I currently just arrived back home to Saskatoon after being in four different countries.My first stop was in Vancouver, where our Canadian Women's National soccer team had our qualification tournament for the 2012 London Olympics at the newly renovated BC place, home of the Vancouver Whitecaps and BC Lions! Walking into the transformed BC place was breathtaking. A sold out venue, fans showing their Canadian pride and the Canadian logo and flags... [Keep Reading]

When I was first asked to be part of "Lifer Blog" I really didn't know why Spareparts would even ask me, I mean my house is a suitcase, my telephone is skype on my iPhone, airplanes are my means of transportation, and the countries I get to see are made up of bus rides to grass soccer fields; how am I suppose to get people to not only be interested in what I do but to read about it. Well here goes nothing! I was born and raised in Saskatoon and... [Keep Reading]
