I am a 45 year old Canadian woman born in the province of Quebec and living in Calgary for the last 12 years where I spend most weekends hiking, scrambling, skiing in the beautiful Canadian Rockies. I worked as an accountant and IT specialist for the past 15 years and now it is time for a change of pace. I simply can't picture myself spending the next 20 years working in an office environment with few weeks off each year. In 2004 I took a year off cycling and now after 5 years of cubicle life I am ready to go and explore our planet a little more!
I have a passion for the mountains and for travelling. My favorite way to travel is on a bicycle as it gives me a lot of freedom, a slow enough pace to breathe and fully feel my surrounding, makes interacting with people very easy and of course it keeps me fit! Over the last few years I have developed a love for nature photography as different way to be close to nature and witness its beauty. Photography will be one of the focus of this trip.
So for the next seven months (and hopefully more) I will be "out of the office" experiencing and celebrating life on the open road :-)
