Moloka'i - Our Wwoofing Adventure! After a couple of crazy days in Honolulu, we arrived in Moloka'i to start out wwoofing adventure. We were very grateful to stay with a very loving and fun family. Peter, Minka, Colin and Makana live on a beautiful family farm right in the rainforest. At night you can hear the ocean and at the moment, you can hear the whales breaching in the water. The whales are currently down from Alaska to have their babies (and to make babi...

'H' who was the manager, had lived in Montreal for most of his life. He would take a group of us backpackers ou...

Hi Everyone and Happy New Year :-) We hope that you have had a great start to the New Year. We are mostly well now but I (Claire) got caught up in the H1N1epidemic sweeping across Canada, which made me very sick, and kept us behind on the blog (KJ has been looking after me)! So, from Boston we headed to New York for Christmas. New York looks exactly like it is portrayed in all of the movies and TV shows. I did find myself expecting to see Carrie Bradshaw walk a...
