Appmaking at Mozcamp in Bangalore

The energy, passion and dedication that is felt when filling one room with 80+ active volunteers who are working with you to help build communities and teach the web is just amazing. The weekend was filled … Continue reading Appmaking at Mozcamp in Bangalore →

Explorers Are We. Intrepid and Bold.

I first came across this quote from a poem in The Listserve and without even knowing who it was by I was a fan. I was even more in love with it when I found out it was Calvin and Hobbes. I remember when I was young I used to steal my brothers Calvin and … Continue reading Explorers Are We. Intrepid and Bold. →

New York in Review

I went to New York with one mission which was to learn as much as I could. I set out for the city a little shaky and with a few reservations but knowing that it was time to start something new. What I didn't expect was what would happen along the way. The past four … Continue reading New York in Review →

Road Trippin’ through the USA

The past few months have been nothing short of spectacular for me but I'm saving all my New York adventures for a blog post coming soon. Instead, I thought I'd share one of the great adventures I recently had that happened outside New York. I love hitting the road and exploring different places around big cities.

Yes Man

I'm a New Yorker. Or so people have been saying. I've spent the past few weeks getting settled, introducing myself to the many neighbourhoods in the city, meeting new people and exploring fun places.

Next Stop: New York

All aboard! After months of planning, organizing, and conquering road blocks along the way, I'm happy to announce that I'll be headed to New York.

A Lesson in Customer Service

As mentioned in an earlier blog post I recently travelled to Las Vegas for a last minute getaway out of Toronto. What I had not included was the very unfortunate rocky start my trip had. It all started at 3am when I left my house and made my way to the airport. Upon arriving, my … Continue reading A Lesson in Customer Service →
