The Chief Hike

Published by Molly Catherine

Irek and I went on the most epic hike yesterday! It’s called The Chief (Stawamus Chief), and is located in Squamish, British Columbia. The hike is super challenging as it’s a steep uphill incline the entire way until you reach the peak. So, if you plan to do it, make sure you’ve done some cardio ahead of time, and are in good physical shape. Irek and I both do high intensity cardio at least three times a week and a challenging hike like this is a great alternative to our regular routine of running/sprinting or elliptical. I’m feeling super grateful today- grateful to live in this beautiful province, and grateful to have the best adventure buddy a girl could ask for! Enjoy the weekend and go explore, it’s a beautiful world out there! Molly xx __________ “I love living. I think that’s infectious. It is something you cannot fake.” – Will Smith

Capilano Suspension Bridge

Published by Molly Catherine

The beauty of British Columbia never ceases to amaze me! And now that it’s springtime, there are gorgeous flowers blooming everywhere! 🙂 Irek and I have been to The Capilano Suspension Bridge only once before, just this past winter with our friends from Australia. Unfortunately the day we went it poured rain, so we didn’t get the full experience. Therefore, we decided to venture back this week and check it out while the sun was shining. It did not disappoint. As you can see by the photos, the bridge is surrounded by lush forest and mountains. It’s so beautiful, and so refreshing to be close to nature. I hope everyone who is reading this is able to spend some quality time outside this week and be grateful for the beauty that surrounds us. Cheers and lots of love, Molly xx __________ “Wildness reminds us what it means to be human, what we are connected to rather than what we are separate from.” – Terry Tempest Williams

Vancouver Auto Show

Published by Molly Catherine

Yesterday Irek and I headed downtown to check out the Auto Show. I am not necessarily the biggest car person… but Irek is, so I’m always happy to join him. 🙂 There were some beautiful cars though! I loved the Aston Martin, the Maserati, and this really cute convertible Jag. After we walked around the show for a bit, and Irek took some photos, we headed to this little vegan lunch spot in Gastown. It’s called Meet in Gastown and they specialize in “veggie comfort food”. Irek and I both opted for the veggie burgers… They were super yummy! They also have the BEST vegan spinach & artichoke dip. I hope everyone has a lovely Easter weekend filled with lots of love & food!! Cheers, Molly xx __________ “Just relax and enjoy the magnificence of life.” – Debasish Mridha

The Scandinave Spa

Published by Molly Catherine

Yesterday my boyfriend and I headed to Whistler to experience one of only four Scandinavian spas in all of Canada. This one is nestled right in the middle of the forest with gorgeous mountain views (that’s the best part)! We spent 6 relaxing hours alternating between the outdoor pools, steam rooms and saunas. Super rejuvenating for the mind and body. If you find yourself in Whistler, The Scandinave Spa is definitely worth checking out, especially after a long day on the slopes. 🙂 Have a lovely day!
