Coming back from a 4 month expedition - hitched a ride from Vancouver to Whitehorse, paddled a canoe from Whitehorse to Emmonak and Alakanuk at the Bering Strait, then to Anchorage from where we hitched a ride to the start of the Alaska Marine Highway at Haines, took that to Prince Rupert, then The Queen of the North [1] to Vancouver Island, hiked through the Carmanah wilderness, back to Vancouver from where we planned to fly back on the 11th of September 2001 - which of course did not happen - we went to a new years' eve party in the UK. I had set my mind on moving to Canada but met a Swedish woman at that party. Sweden is just like Canada, right? Now that Canada is turning into the Peoples Republic of Trudeaunia I'd say I made the better choice in more than one way...
