Hey friends! Heather here:
The blogging, food loving, photographing, travelin’ mamma who wants to Live her Awesome Life and help others live theirs too.
We live our awesome life as a family, learning about what matters most, creating, finding joy in the little things, and traveling and exploring this awesome world we live in!
Why we Live our Awesome
It might sounds a bit cliche, but we live our lives full of adventure because we can. Nope, we aren’t made of money, and we don’t have a secret trust fund. We make choosing what matters to us a priority. We also make a point to explore close to home a lot, which is amazing (and keeps things a bit more affordable too!) We had some tough years where I let work and comparison and money control my time and energy, and then I was forced to make some changes. And I am so glad that I did. The amount of laughter and adventure we have experienced together has been a huge gift, and I can’t wait for more!!

BUT for now I want to share this feature of our very own Nova Scotian Cape Breton Island. If you’re looking for a place to explore, this is a gem that needs to be shared!
What the heckeroonie are Fairy Holes?
I picture mossy green gullies with fireflies glittering about. I would ALSO love to see that! BUT the Fairy Caves in Cape Breton are much different than that!
The Fairy Hole at the end of the Cape Dauphin Trail is Certainly worth being explored!
How do we travel so much? (And sometimes for free!)
One of the questions we get asked MOST often is “How do you travel so much”. While the answer is always shifting here and there, this post really gives some insight on how we save, plan ahead and travel frugally when we can to make it happen as often as possibe!
