Hey there! I've been lurking about here for almost a year now and I finally decided to join.
I'm Canadian and I've done my share of travelling around Canada for someone my age, I'm going into grade 11 this coming year. I've lived in 3 provinces (Ontario, BC and Alberta) and I've lived in 6 different cities. Because I move around so much it really made me appreciate travelling. :D
I've wanted to go backpacking since I was 10 and it's only finally becoming a reality. I've never been out of Canada but this May I'm travelling Europe with my school and after that I hope to backpack Europe either with a friend or by myself.

Sorry about that super long intro post but I forgot to mention that I'm a girl and a HUGE videogame nerd.

Thanks you guys! :D You're so welcoming!
I'm hoping to get my first taste of travelling this coming school year when I go on a "War and Remberance" trip through Europe with my school and then again in grade 12 when my French class is travelling to France.
