Web Time Wasters
Evelyn From The Internets is one of my Very Actual Favorites and if she had a tv show I’d watch it.
How was your week, friends? I brunch with my MIL, fiiiiinally crossed paddleboarding off my New Things List, and hosted Article Club. Our theme was ‘cultural constructs’ because we are dorks.
Links for you!

True Story: I’m A Performance Artist
This is one of many True Story interviews in which we talk to people who have experienced interesting/challenging/amazing things. This is the story of Tiara and her work as a performance artist.

Mini Travel Guide: Taiwan
I spent August 2004 - April 2006 living and working in Chung Li, Taiwan. Friends, Taiwan is not for everyone. It's polluted, hot, crowded and the 7-11's smell like rotting tea eggs. But it's also full of great street food, awesomely weird fashion, insane festivals and really lovely people. And it's not really part of the backpacker route! So you can avoid those group of drunk 19-year-old...
True Story: I Have Herpes
Can you tell us a bit about yourself? I’m a normal, 20-something girl. I’m an economics major, sociology minor at a Midwest college. I party on weekends, serve at a local coffee shop for cash and love spending it all on shoes. I’m normal. But I have herpes. I grew up in a good home, in a middle-class neighborhood and my parents are still together. Sex was never a taboo topic, and sexual health...
Notes From The Road: You’ll Love Laos
Though I only spent a week in Laos, I'm a little bit in love with it. So much in love with it that I'm actively fantasizing about a life in which I "winter" in Luang Prabang. I could tell you all the reasons why Loas is awesome (French-influenced food and architecture, lovely people, great exchange rate, green mountains, epic waterfalls) but sometimes pictures are more effective, no? ...
True Story: I’m Really, Really Tall
This is one of many True Story interviews in which we talk to people who have experienced interesting/challenging/amazing things. This is Kim's story - she's 6'1"!Can you tell us a bit about yourself? I was born in Ottawa, moved a few times, but always came back to the same house I was born into. I recently turned 29 and can't wait to make it to my 30's because I'm sure my 30's are going to be...
Notes From The Road: Splashing Out, Laos Style
Friends, I have been traveling for three and a half months now. Three and a half months of sleeping on friends' couches, in refugee camps and on the floors of NGO offices. The majority of my showers have come via bucket and I'd ask that you don't smell my scarf, as the adjective 'feral' might spring to mind. Being slightly sleep deprived and a little bit dirty makes for a rather grouchy...
