Abbotsford Tulip Festival

Published by Molly Catherine

I’ve lived in British Columbia for almost three years now and have never made it to the Abbotsford Tulip Festival. I saw some amazing photos on Instagram over the last couple of weeks and had to make my way over there! It’s actually coming to the end of the tulip season, so we made it just in time. The colours were unreal, it was truly a spectacular sight. I dream in colour and so for me, this place was super inspiring & magical. I read that on the weekends there is a lineup so long to get in that it causes huge traffic jams! So luckily we went on a weekday. The tulip festival is open only until this Sunday, May 1st. So, if you live in the area make sure to check it out ASAP. It’s only about an hour drive from Vancouver. Hope everyone is finding time to explore nature and appreciate all the beauty that surrounds us! 🙂 Cheers, Molly xx __________ “Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.” …

Cascade Falls

Published by Molly Catherine

Exploring in British Columbia is endless! We found such a beautiful spot about an hour and 15 minute drive East from our house, in Mission. It’s a stunning waterfall, called Cascade Falls, with a small suspension bridge. The waterfall is tucked right into the woods and it’s just a short 2 minute walk to the viewpoint. It’s perfect for people who want to experience a beautiful site, but don’t want to hike hours to get there! It’s honestly probably one of my favourite spots in BC, even though everywhere we go is breathtaking! But this felt very intimate and secluded, and no one was there when Irek and I arrived. So it was a lovely experience. I’m sure it’s quite busy on weekends though. I was able to take some time to meditate when we arrived while Irek took some photos.  It was a very serene moment. Hope you enjoy the pictures & if you’re in the BC area make sure to check it out! Cheers, Molly xx __________ “It is only in adventure that …

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

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!
