From last week...kayaking as the sun went down! 😍

From yesterday’s hike 😍

🏖Had my first beach day of the summer! Was nice to go for a swim and relax reading our books☺️

This post was meant for “canada day” but I got busy finishing a paper, so here it is now... I love that I can call canada home. I’m grateful for the opportunities I’ve had here, and all the people in my life. I love that there are so many beautiful places to explore nature, such as in these photos. There are many parts about canada that I love. But, as I learn more about this country, there’s a lot that I hate about it. Growing up, the education system taught me to be proud of canada, for how we’ve helped other countries and that we’ve welcomed so many people from different places and cultures. What I wasn’t taught about is the systemic racism that impacts so many people’s lives. I was taught that the land we live on was “discovered” and that colonization brought “civilization” to the “savages” who lived here. There is so much that we aren’t taught and that isn’t talked about, like the genocide that occurred and that colonialism still impacts Indigenous peoples to this day. Canada is a country where Indigenous communities lack access to basic needs like clean drinking water and healthcare. Children are taken from their families, women go missing or are murdered, and land continues to be stolen and destroyed. I’m glad that conversations about these things are beginning to reach more people, but it’s not enough. Indigenous peoples and allies have been speaking out about these issues for years, yet people found the discovery of mass unmarked graves of children “shocking”. We need to listen and learn what we can do. The past can’t be undone but we can and 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 take action to stop it from continuing. I encourage everyone to find ways they can be an ally to the Indigenous peoples whose land we are living on. Stolen land. Start by learning about where you are living and the people who came before you. Acknowledging this is an important step towards decolonization.

Love this time of year when the forest has become so green and lush 🌿🌳🍃 Almost done the semester and then I can enjoy it more 😍

Glad it didn’t rain while filming at Alouette the other day! Still can’t tell you the secret 🤫...not much longer though!!

Had a fun photo shoot today...for something exciting... but I have to keep it a secret until next month🤫🤐😂

Walked down to the river on my break the other day ☀️ It’s so nice to see the sun and blue sky! 😍
