Going without a plan

I've always wanted to travel. Still do. I yearn for adventure. Most of my friends have taken gap years or semesters in their life to travel to somewhere exotic and I was just waiting for my turn.


Instead of travelling to another continent I decided to travel around the very country I lived in. Most of Canada was and still is unknown to me so it made more sense to travel in Canada. I bought a Nissan Xterra for my trip. 3.3L 4x4 5speed. Here is a picture of it in action in Squamish.

My trip was designed to take myself completely out of familiarity and comfort. The itinerary simply included cities and how long I was staying there. I did not plan where I was sleeping or who I was spending the day with.

The plan was to leave Calgary May 25 and return June 8th then leave again on another trip to Jasper to return June 13th.
