Happy Halloween Everybody! This is a pic of my parents circa 1984 I am guessing. I sure love those crazy kids! #happyhalloween

The Spice Girls of Extension made a blazing appearance at the United Way Plasma Car Derby today at the UofA. With a podium finish of 2nd place and the winner of the Best Dressed we had a lot of fun raising funds for the United Way. Old Spice - Don’t let her blue hair and walker fool you! Old Spice is ready to grind the gears and persevere all the way to first place! Pumpkin Spice - This seasonal favourite is in her prime this time of year! You’ve seen her everywhere lately—from Oreo cookies to Spam—but don’t blink or you might just miss her! This gal moves fast and will leave the competition in her spicy dust! Spice Cake - Victory is a dessert best served with spice! Spice Cake has all the ingredients to make it to the top of the podium. If you can’t handle the heat, you better get out of her kitchen! Secret Spice - Every team needs that special something that you can’t quite put your finger on. With Secret Spice, you may never know what hit ya, but you won’t soon forget her! #unitedway #plasmacarderby #uofa #spicegirls #unignorable

Check out my newest designs. Simple shambala bracelets to remind ourselves to be grateful for the little things in life. #theurbangypsy #yegmade #shoplocal #edmontonmade #yegartist #bycurated #themakerskeep

Malas ~ Malas ~ Malas ........... Here is a sneak peak of all my newest Malas that will be available at this weekend’s market - Wholly Handmade. It takes place at the Agora Centre on Saturday & Sunday. Get your one of a kind piece before it’s gone! 📿 #malanecklace #whollyhandmade #bycurated #themakerskeep #yegmade #shoplocal

No filter needed for this one! Although I’m sad to be back at home, I can’t be more grateful to live in Canada. #yeggers #edmonton #sunrise #edmonton

Last day in Greece. Working in the laundry at Ritsona refugee camp, spending the last night with my girls and Lucy and I showing off our gift from the amazing Mrs Fortini. #greeklife #chalkida #ritsona #volunteerabroad #theurbangypsy

Road trip! We weren’t allowed to go to camp today because of unrest so instead we hired a car and did a road trip to Kymi and Kalamos. #greeklife #roadtrip #eviaisland #kymi #kalamos #wanderlust #theurbangypsy

Just a few days left in Greece. Trying to savor every moment! Here are a few from camp and after work in Chalkida. #chalkida #ritsona #volunteerabroad #greeklife #theurbangypsy

Are you getting sick of my photos yet? 🥴 Here are a few shots from today. #chalkida #greeklife #volunteerabroad #theurbangypsy

Back in Chalkida ... #chalkida #greeklife #volunteerabroad #theurbangypsy

Another day on the beautiful island of Hydra. A bit of a hike, some more time near the sea, accepting my status as crazy cat lady and finally meeting up with my friend Kim after 20 years!!!!!!!! #hydraisland #hydragreece #islandlife #greece_travel #friendsforever

Hydra in a nutshell! Simply AMAZING! I wish we had more time to spend a few more days here! #hydra #hydragreece #greekislands #greece #exploregreece #theurbangypsy

Another day at camp with the CCS crew. Sally and I finding interesting outfits and a box full of mouse poo. Xenia doing the laundry. And a late train ride to Athens where we caught the ferry to Hydra! #ritsonarefugeecamp #crossculturalsolutions #ccsgreece #trainride #greece #theurbangypsy

What a day! These pics are driving to and from camp. Sally pretending she’s on a weight loss commercial with the clothes in the warehouse. Me trying to fix the chain fence by weaving tree branches into the fence so men can’t see into the Female Friendly Space. Us girls in front of Megasthenous - that’s where we live. And a night out with Mrs Fortini and her daughter. Our new Greek family! ❤️❤️❤️ #greeklife #volunteerabroad #chalkida

For obvious reasons I can’t take photos in the camp so these few are from after a days work. Here are my ladies ~Xenia, Maria and Lucy (Sally)

Living the Greek life! Waking up in Chalkida, this is our view from the balcony. The next two are in camp where we are sorting donated clothing and putting it out for residents to have. Maybe don’t send a prom dress to refugees!🥴 and the last pic is Lucy from UK and Maria from Mexico. #chalkida #greece #volunteerabroad #ritsonarefugeecamp #theurbangypsy

Day 2 proof of life ~ on our second full day here we were unable to go to camp as some violence broke out. Instead Lucy and I got lost trying to find the waterfront.
