This is a little late, but here are some of my favorite shots from my vacation in Alberta, Canada! We visited three national parks while we were there for a week: Jasper, Banff and Waterton Lakes.

I can’t even begin to describe how beautiful everything was in the national parks that we visited. There’s really nothing better than being surrounded by towering, icy mountains and catching whiffs of the thick, sweet smell of pine with every breeze. Every lake we visited was like a little jewel we found for all of our hard work either driving around an hour up a winding mountain road or hiking a path for a few minutes. There was so much to see and I’ve only touched the tip visiting for a week, so I’ll definitely be back to visit again someday. There’s just this addicting sense of freedom and release that I can’t quite capture with words.. and its this feeling that I live for.
