CURRENT MISSION

To keep falling in love with the world

ABOUT ME

Hey! My name is Ian and I'm from Toronto! Many years ago, at the end of my high school days, I read an article called "Why We Travel" by the travel writer Pico Iyer. The article began as such:

“We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again- to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.”

Since then I've had the travel bug and Iyer's words remind me why I travel...
