Tag: Photo of the Week

Every week I’ll upload a photo that captures my mood. Or just a photo that I love.

Photo Of The Week: All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone

October 16, 2011

With only three weeks until I head off on my big adventure around the world, I’ve been thinking a lot about the people I’ll be leaving behind, or people that I haven’t seen in a while. This photo is from a night in NYC this past summer, with two of the bestest friends I could … More Photo Of The Week: All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone

Photo Of The Week: Niagara Falls

October 2, 2011

The Falls One of our first major sightseeing stops this summer was, of course, Niagara Falls, one of the Wonders of the World. And oh boy, did it live up to expectations. The sheer amount of water careering over those clifftops was just incredible, let alone the speed at which it fell and the sound … More Photo Of The Week: Niagara Falls

Photo Of The Week: Friends Reunited

September 25, 2011

This weekend I went up to Crewe to visit two of my bestest friends from uni, after not having seen them for over 3 months. With heaps of laughs, pasta bake, chicken pie and banana cake, it was a weekend well spent, and lovely to see the girls!

Photo Of The Week: I Have A Dream

September 18, 2011

This engraving can be found right outside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC – it is where Martin Luther King stood as he gave his famous ‘I have a dream’ speech. I think it’s pretty apt right now in my life, as all my own dreams are slowly turning into realities…anyone can dream, but it’s … More Photo Of The Week: I Have A Dream

Photo Of The Week: Hello Connecticut

September 11, 2011

This really should have been last week’s POTW but I got a bit sidetracked by the whole goodbye element of my photos. So here’s one from Washington DC, where we all stood under the Connecticut sign on the WWII memorial, celebrating our time spent there at Camp Sloane this summer.

Photo Of The Week: On Top Of The World

August 28, 2011

Last week, on our last full day in Toronto, I ventured up the CN Tower, one of the world’s tallest towers, with some friends. It offered some incredible views, spanning across the entire city, rivalling those of the Empire State Building!

Photo Of The Week: When Jack Met Bear

July 31, 2011

On my last day off, I went to NYC with my friend Jack to introduce him to Bear Grylls, who was there on business. It was an awesome day, nice to get out of Camp for a while and do something different. To prove that it was real and that Bear was actually there, we … More Photo Of The Week: When Jack Met Bear

Photo Of The Week: Closing Campfire

July 24, 2011

At the end of every session at camp we have what’s called a closing campfire, where everyone heads down to the stage and each section performs a little skit (with a different theme each time). It’s a great evening event, and has a very celebratory feel to it, everyone happy and relieved to have made … More Photo Of The Week: Closing Campfire

Photo Of The Week: Chaos

July 18, 2011

Sorry…yesterday was hectic so I didnt have time to put this up (also…I lose track of what day it is here at camp, so I totally didn’t even realise it was Sunday!) Once per session (every 2 weeks), the counselors and kids play a game called Chaos for one of their evening activities. It’s a … More Photo Of The Week: Chaos
