Forest walk, followed by picnic, followed by nap. This is full-on vacation mode. . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #52hikechallenge #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #dogsthathike #adventuredog #hikewithdogs #dogdoses #rescuedog #hikinglife #hikingadventures #kong #parcdemorchene https://www.instagram.com/p/ByLGkbDoWt1/?igshid=ng4k8xr00n4c

On this day in 2015 I adopted Bucky, named Cupidon at the time. We’ve spent almost 2 years on different continents, he gets opportunities to hang out with other dogs than I’d like, I’ve had less energy to train him than I’d like, he’s a bit too much of a Velcro dog at times... yet I still think we’re doing a great job with him. He’s got a great life with us. I’m proud of the progress he’s made since his adoption. I’m incredibly grateful for my parents and the time they’ve spent taking care of him. #adoptdontshop . . . #dog #dogs_of_instagram #photooftheday #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #dogsthathike #adventuredog #dogoftheday #hound #rescueslivinglarge #rescuedogsofinstagram #fauvedebretagne #irishterriermix #terriermix #rescuedog #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #52hikechallenge #hikinglife #hikingadventures #asseenonthetrail #spachilleursauxbois (at Orléans, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx97HEFoa70/?igshid=1f4me1gk0c8hm

Just because I’m sleeping in the same house every night doesn’t mean I have to stay in.

Spent most of the past few days indoors. I hadn’t realized how attuned to the weather I had been while living outside until suddenly I wasn’t. . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #rhonesalpes #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #52hikechallenge #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #hikewithdogs #rescuedog #hikinglife #hikingadventures #backpacking #camping #longdistancehiking #asseenonthetrail (at Bas-En-Basset, Auvergne, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxz3YYgoDxd/?igshid=1670vxslsalbw

Day 16: More resting and exploring Les Gorges de la Loire at a leisurely pace. It’s nice not to rush. . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #52hikechallenge #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #dogsthathike #adventuredog #dogoftheday #rescueslivinglarge #rescuedogsofinstagram #fauvedebretagne #irishterriermix #terriermix #hikewithdogs #dogdoses #rescuedog #hikinglife #hikingadventures #backpacking #camping (at Unieux, Rhone-Alpes, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxX2ZB2Fyx-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rt3ba2whfdub

Day 15: There’s rain and then more rain. We drive on the winding local roads, eat food, watch old cars zoom by and talk about how cold it is for the month of May. Meanwhile Bucky sleeps, naps and lies down quietly. A full rest day was dearly needed and there is no way I wanted to hike in this weather anyway. By the end of the day hiking feels like a distant dream. . . . #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #52hikechallenge #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #dogsthathike #adventuredog #dogoftheday #rescueslivinglarge #rescuedogsofinstagram #fauvedebretagne #irishterriermix #terriermix #hikewithdogs #dogdoses #rescuedog #hikinglife #hikingadventures #backpacking #camping (at La Chaise-Dieu) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxU87ppFayH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d8cncq6ybxo8

I know vacations are also to do nothing but I’ll be honest I’m struggling to slow down. I’m off to explore new places and hike with my dog. . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #canadianimmigrant #camping #cycletouring #hikinglife #bikingadventures #bikepacking #saumur #vacationmode #loireavelo #bikestagram #springriding #hikewithdogs #hikinglife #hikingadventures https://www.instagram.com/p/BxCmiG0Fq-n/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1iw4vmaskhjbo

I’m still not used to the idea that it is 2019. Or spring. Wasn’t the winter supposed to last forever? . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #canadianimmigrant #camping #cycletouring #hikinglife #bikingadventures #bikepacking #saumur #vacationmode #loireavelo #bikestagram #springriding (at Orléans, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxAuyLoFvu0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rihzy7oylyst

I’m off! It’s strange how I feel both prepared and totally unprepared for this journey. I have been thinking about travelling along the river Loire since I was 10. And yet I’ve barely researched cycle-touring, didn’t train on the bike, decided to wing it for the food and water resupplies. This should be an interesting trip! . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #canadianimmigrant #hikinglife #hikingadventures #backpacking #camping #biking #cycletouring (at Saumur, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwSZm9zFe9X/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uxdlbae4gl9z

Bucky is making me discover new walking routes. In a few weeks we’ll head out to hike about 200 km along the River Loire. . . . #loirevalley #france #goodtimesoutside #riverloire #instagood #natureisamazing #magnifiquefrance #OptOutside #mecstaffer #queerhiker #canadianimmigrant #dogs_of_instagram #latergram #dogsofinstagram #hikingdogsofinstagram #dogsthathike #adventuredog #dogoftheday #rescueslivinglarge #rescuedogsofinstagram #fauvedebretagne #irishterriermix #terriermix #hikewithdogs #dogdoses #traildogs #rescuedog #hikinglife #hikingadventures #backpacking #camping https://www.instagram.com/p/BwHPuekF2IL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1au86pnhqw9gn
