Horse and Skies and Canadians = Crazy Cold Fun

The cold front in Western Canada does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon with a hovering average of -17℃ in the daytime. That won't stop a group of Calgarians from doing possibly one of the most Canadian things this weekend - the Skijordue. I thought it would be fun to showcase a little bit about Canadian culture, and how we entertain ourselves on weekends even if the expected high is going to be -15℃ without windchill.

The Skijordue is like wake boarding except the boat is a horse and the boarder is on skies using the pulling momentum from the horse to do flips and tricks off decent size jumps - check it out here. The event used to only be in the iconic mountain town of Banff however it's expanded to this weekend in the city of Calgary.

Speaking of which, a couple weeks ago I talked about making new friends as an adult and I suggested the platform Timeleft.

I gave the concept of Dinner with Strangers a go myself this past Wednesday and had a great time. It's extremely welcoming as everyone attending is in the mindset of meeting one another making for a very open and conversation flowing dinner, and after hours which combines other Timeleft tables together. P.s. use code "ILOVETIMELEFT", a big thanks to Antonio from the YTF WhatsApp Community for sharing to get $5 off a ticket.

Happy Valentine's Day for those who are celebrating today. And thank you for being a big part of my journey as a traveller and community creator.
