CALEDON, Ontario. I’ve just landed on Mars. Or so it seems. Just a short drive north of my suburban neighbourhood lays an usual geographical landscape hidden in the Caledon Hills. The Cheltenham Badlands. The area consists of naked windswept red hills and gullies. Iron oxide gives the land it’s reddish hue,  while the narrow greenish bands…

A week in Dominican

Sitting on a sand covered towel with the ocean washing over my feet, I watch a lone kite surfer glide through the ripples of the beach, disappearing off into the orange glow of the sun set.
