Imagine if semi-wild horses were roaming everywhere, not just in Saint-Pierre & Miquelon. 🐴💖
The semi-wild horses on Saint Pierre and Miquelon are a very unique sight. They roam freely around the islands, getting used to the tough terrain and coastlines. 🌿 These horses are thought to be descendants of ones brought by early settlers and are sometimes looked after by locals. It’s an interesting and lovely look into the islands' history and culture.

Saint Pierre and Miquelon: The only place where you can sail the Atlantic and say 'Bonjour' to the seagulls! 🌊🕊️
Saint Pierre & Miquelon (SPM) is an archipelago and French territorial collectivity off of Newfoundland, Canada. It is France: the currency is the euro, the language spoken is French, it is governmentally an extension of France.
And it’s not easy to get to! There are few flights a week to Saint Pierre from Montreal, Halifax, St. John’s, and even Paris in the summer months. There is also a ferry from Fortune, Newfoundland, which is definitely an experience.

Catch the Miquelon vibes! From breathtaking landscapes to the freedom of semi-wild horses, this island is pure magic. 🌊✨
We took the ferry from Saint Pierre to Miquelon. ⛴ Saint Pierre is the smaller island but much more populated, with most of the archipelago’s population there. Miquelon is much larger but much less inhabited, consisting of three presqu’iles or peninsulas. The smaller one is in the north, where most of the population lives (and where all the restaurants, hotels, and almost all the stores are, including the only gas station).
🐴💖 There are semi-wild horses everywhere around Miquelon. Apparently the horses have owners, but they get to roam around quite a bit on their own. We made so many galloping friends in Miquelon!

Get lost in the rhythm of Hawaii's underwater ballet where the local fish are the dancers and the waves the symphony. 🐠🎼
Hawaii’s local fish are highly important to the islands and the Hawaiian people. Here are three key facts about Hawaii’s fish:
☝️ Biodiversity: Hawaii's waters are teeming with a diverse range of marine life, including over 600 species of fish. This rich biodiversity is attributed to the isolation of the Hawaiian Islands and the unique oceanic currents that surround them.
✌️ Endemic Species: Many of Hawaii's fish species are found nowhere else in the world. These endemic species have evolved in isolation over millions of years, resulting in distinct and sometimes rare fish populations like the Hawaiian Monk Seal, Hawaiian Cleaner Wrasse, and Hawaiian Damselfish.
👌 Traditional Fishing Practices: Fishing has been an integral part of Hawaiian culture for centuries. Native Hawaiians developed sustainable fishing practices, such as using fish ponds (loko i'a) and fish traps (hinai), to harvest seafood. Today, these traditional methods coexist with modern fishing techniques, contributing to the preservation of Hawaii's marine resources.
🌊☀️Ready to get in the waters yourself? Join Island Immersion from June 12-19, 2024 on our Hawaii Deep Dive! Our Hawaiian journey coincides with FestPAC in Waikiki, Oahu. We’ll be exploring the FestPAC traditional wa’a (dugout canoes) in Kualoa, exploring Oahu’s glistening North Shore, and visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center for a luau and evening show. We’ll continue our journey in Kauai to explore its serene coastlines and indulge in a river cruise. Of course, you’ll have free time to explore and “dive” into Hawaii’s beautiful waters.
DM us to save your spot!

Those 6am jungle sounds. 🌱Enjoying our morning tea ☕️ on our terrace before the sun came up on our last morning in Uganda. We could taste the ❤️ in those homemade shortbread hearts.

This magic. ✨
Listening to Mr. Wallen play his harp as day turned to night in Bwindi is one of our most treasured memories of this trip to Uganda.

Kibale National Park! After running around the forest for a few hours, we were rewarded with a few up close chimp encounters. This guy is named Rokara, which means charcoal black. He’s 40 years old and is the 4th dominant male in his community.

Monday manatee! 🏝
May this chubby mermaid inspire you to float through the day with grace and style. I met this friend in the Caribbean waters of Belize while on a trip with @ecomarbelize. We made signs for the boats to GO SLOW (the national slogan) so the manatees can do their thing without fear of getting hit.
Many thanks to all of you who supported EcoMar through the bracelet project. I will be working this week on transitioning the remaining bracelets over to Etsy. If any that aren’t marked as sold are still on your wish list, get in touch! Some also work as anklets if that’s more your thing.
P.S. apologies for the recent silence — I’ve been working hard on some exciting upcoming group trips!
