Of course I miss travel. Of course I don’t want to sit inside my house all day, everyday. I miss waterfalls and hiking trails and going to a pub for a beer and happy hour with my girls and walks near the beach and cuddles with my boyfriend and coffee with my mama. 💔 . But it’s not worth the risk of spreading COVID-19 🦠 . And honestly? If you have a safe space and a job you can work at remotely, it’s not a big ask to stay home and watch Netflix and read a book and do home workouts and cook and order food and even beer delivery 🍻 . Of course I miss it. But I also know it’s not worth the risk🙅🏻‍♀️ . #stayhome #alisonathome #athome #glt #writer #canadian #mexico #donttravel #socialdistancingsaveslives #coronaviruspandemic #flattenthecurve #throwback

Back when a winery tour wasn’t just taking my glass from the kitchen to the patio 😅🍷

Throwback to a beautiful sunset last summer 🌅 . Of all the cities in the world to be quarantined in, I’m so happy to be here 💜 #vancouverbc

My face when you tell me we ACTUALLY made it to Friday 😁🎉 . One week of chaos down. From what I’ve read, we’ve got months to go 😓 . There’s so much uncertainty in the world right now, and the only thing I’m certain of is that I can do my part to stay inside 🏡 . I love exploring, but if #socialdistancing can #flattenthecurve, I’d way rather “overreact” then regret not taking action sooner ✨ . Plus, I’ve got books and Netflix 📚 . At the end of the day, the only thing I can control is my attitude. So today, I’m choosing to smile 🥰

Made it to Friday!!! Wooo – wait, it’s only Wednesday?... well, here’s a waterfall 💦 . . . #waterfallwednesday #stillsocialdistancing #yosemite #mountains #usa #northamerica #explore #outdoors #yosemitenp #outdooradventures #humpday🐪

Sharing my workspace with my roomie this week, as offices across Vancouver are closing 😷 Will we survive #covid_19 social distancing... together?! Check in on Friday for an update 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 . #socialdistancing #unlessyoulivetogether #workfromhome #coronaviruspandemic #covid19canada #onlineeditor
