I spent much of the past week lounging by the water at a cottage up north; a pretty Canadian thing to do over an extended long weekend. In preparation for the vacation, I was looking for an adventure book; something about traveling and getting off the beaten path. I found exactly that in Escape from the Ordinary; it’s a gem of a book that I wanted to share with you.

Just in case you’ve been living under a rock these past few weeks, the Toronto Raptors made history last night by winning their first ever NBA championship in franchise history. The entire country has been electrified, with each day leading up to the next game in the series feeling like one long, collective intake of breath. It’s an incredible achievement in its own right, and we can all exhale a sigh of relief now that it’s over; that said, focusing purely on the basketball passes up on an opportunity to have a different kind of conversation.
