From doing podcast editing to driving down to the 0 mile marker on the TransCanada Highway to tasting Lee's Famous Chicken Recipe, this is how I spent my last 24 hours on the island.

On this episode I meet two people during a 4 hour road closure that are awesome! I end up spending the rest of the day with them too. And I learned how to throw a javelin which is pretty freaking cool. Make sure to check out the video of that on IG @lukeblessed.

The first few days on Vancouver Island have been a blast! I've reconnected with old friends and met some amazing people and had some top tier food. There have been a few challenges but overall it's been some of the best moments of the trip for sure!

I just said her name wrong to her face and now she's mad at me but I'm posting nonetheless. Enjoy.

Alisa is fun. Just said it wrong again. I knew she would be a great reviewer (mainly because she liked me a lot so that's good for the future).

This episode I talk about the tourist trap that is Capilano's suspension bridge, going to Deep Cove and my parking troubles, and whale watching on the Pacific Ocean!

I drove ten hours from Canmore to Vancouver in one day to avoid the smoke and fires... only to drive through a couple where I legit though I would die. It was not a fun drive for most of it. Very scary.

My AMA is over on my Instagram @lukeblessed for the next little bit!

But this episode is a review of August 12/13th as I did not that much at all and some extra touristy hikes.

August 10th was a pretty action-packed day as I woke up at 6 AM, drove to Lake Louise, summited Mount St. Piran, did Little Beehive, almost did Devil's Thumb, and swam in Lake Louise!

Hey everyone! I met Raymond at the top of the Sentinel hike near Lake Moraine and knew I had to get him on the podcast after our conversation about landscape photography. Here is https://www.flickr.com/photos/116195145@N05/ (his Flickr account).
