Hey I’m Lori

I’m a whale-obsessed paddler based in Vancouver, BC. I share trip plans, guides, gear reviews, and stories from nature.

I used to be a Toronto city gal and now spend all of my time outside. You’ll find me kayaking, camping, hiking, and cooking wildly elaborate meals outside. 

Sea kayaking is my favourite hobby of all. Those moments when it’s just the sound of your paddle and the blow from a whale are absolutely magical. For me, kayaking is like meditation - it is an experience like no other and I am super keen to get more women on the water.

I know it can feel hard to start. Everyone outdoorsy already seems to know what they’re doing, especially out west. So I started this blog to break it down and make getting outside (hopefully) less intimidating. Trust me -  if I can do it, you can do it too. 

Thanks for being here! If you have any questions don’t hesitate to comment on any of my posts or send me a DM. I’m happy to help, let’s get you outside!
