Salt Spring Island, Canada

First off, I want to let you guys know about a company my good friend Kristin works for called Working for Green.

Ok, so I wanted to share a few more pics from my recent vacation.  The first week my boyfriend and I stayed at a house his family owns on Salt Spring Island, which is off of Vancouver in the Gulf Islands.  It was so beautiful and peaceful!
I love how the light is streaming through the trees here.


There was a beautiful lavender farm on the island!


And this was a view from the road that we took from the ferry to get to the house showing some of the other islands in the distance.


This was some of the forest around the house.


This was the view from the back of the house at sunset.


And this was the view from the house during the day.
 

The shoreline was covered with purple starfish!


Oh and someone asked me what I used to hold my gear when I travel. I use the Lowepro Fastpack 350 which perfectly holds and protects my camera, a couple lenses, my laptop, and has lots of pockets for memory cards, cords, and an open section on top that can fit a couple books or snacks. I got it for my trip to Peru and it's been a wonderful travel bag for me!  Stay tuned for more pics from this trip!
