BONNAROO in 5IVE DAYS!!!!


HOLY SHIT! So I got my ticket....and now I am looking at the schedule... and I AM SO EXCITED, I feel like a Twilight fangirl, that's how excited I am......
I'm most excited for the night electro/dance.whatever. stuff, 
We got Crystal Castles, Girl Talk, MGMT, And about 15 other bands I know I will like, this isn't even taking into account the random bands we'll discover and the ones my friends have lined up...
BAHH, And the drive is going to make it all so much more fun! AH!

The Pug Awards for Toronto Architecture!

Voting is closed, who will the winners/losers be??
Click here for the official website.

I love this building, I think it would be the perfect place to live, the location is awesome, and while I was looking at all the buildings you can vote on in the Pug Awards it was one of the ones that stuck out the most -and that was before I even figured out what/where it was. Also, it turns out my Ex's (ex)girlfriend's grandpa or some shiz is the architect....cool/weird.

RAINBOW!


After the thunderstorm rolled through this is what I saw from my balcony:

Great Hostels!

Here are some amazing hostels I have stayed at over the years:

London, UK
- London Backpackers in Hendon (pictured below) - not in the center but next to Hendon Central and AMAZING rates, perfect for long termers... has a pool table and a great kitchen/common room and a healthy drinking community. I love this place, I will always stay here.

- St. Christopher's Inn in Camden - I wasn't here too long, but it had a big bar and is right in Camden, rooms are clean and not too expensive.

Australia
- Calypso Inn Backpackers Resort in Cairns (pictured below)- LOVE this place, great pool and bar with fun staff, good community feel, cheap food, and shuttle service into the town.

- The Arts Factory in Byron Bay (pictured below)- Hippy haven, great pool and lots of space with a sandy beach volley ball net, lots of classes in neat hippy things, lots of different rooms to choose from.


Amsterdam
- The Hans Brinker - Cheap, dirty, and they know it. Funny place in a good location, I've stayed there twice and would stay there again.
- The Bulldog in The Red Light District - Perfect common room/bar, I stayed here alone and was not impressed by the Red Light District at night, but it wasn't too far from the Dam. 

Iceland
- The Domus Guest House - Best hostel in Reykjavik. PERIOD. The owner/manager became my Icelandic father and made my stay incredible. Cheap accommodations, right near the shopping street. 

Tanzania
- Peponi Resort in Pangani (pictured below) - This place was great, we just showed up there with no reservations and they were full so they gave us the owners brothers HOUSE for like 20$ each a night...very beachy feel, the food was AMAZING and the bar was fun and had lots to do, there are lots of interesting travelers and people are allowed to camp in their tents. The beach was stunning and they did some fun tours but I didn't get a chance to go.
