How to experience wonder as a grown-up
The Origin of all 651 Street Names in Vancouver. I love maps and origin stories so this epic nerdery is right up my alley. Or my street, as it were, which is named after a landowner.
Signs you may be an introverted extrovert. Or maybe just shy.
Why all your relationships turn out the same
Maybe you’re unhappy because you’re trying to be happy
The power of consistently doing the right things
Making your relationship better
The Tukoyuktuk travel brochure. You can now drive there year-round and Instagram shows many people posing with their vehicle in front of the Arctic Ocean sign… but not a lot else going on. I have been obsessed with Tuk for about as long as I can remember and I will get there at some point but it seems like it’s going to take about 100 hours.
Also, the Greenland Hiking Guide and the Arctic Trail Intro because I am also obsessed with hiking the Arctic Circle Trail. 2020 is the year that I will get to the Arctic and it is going to be a dive trip but I feel like these are not far behind.
Also thinking about sneaking a trip in between Mexico / finishing my pre-req classes and Mexico / starting grad school. Current shortlist: Zambia, Norway, New Zealand, Beijing.
The practice of self-inquiry – ask yourself these questions.
You can’t afford to be a fragile little tea cup
On the strangeness of Octopuses. I will always read anything on this subject.

Learning to articulate a wider range of emotions
