#womankindworldwide

Thank you so much for your kind support👍

We teamed up with our friend @sophiawebster for #internationalwomensday to help raise awareness of women's rights. #SophiasTravellingbag is a very very special bag and it has charms, handwritten inspirational quotes and mantras from women from all over the world. We took this picture back in December and since then the bag has travelled to many places like Russia, Singapore, India, England, Shanghai, Nigeria, Greece, Germany, U.S.A, Italy and many more. We made a little hang tag and attached it to the bag to represent Canada. For a chance to win this awesome bag, click the link in @sophiawebster bio and check it out. It's for a good cause! All the proceeds go to @womankindworldwide #SophiaWebster #CharmofWisdom #womankindworldwide #beckermangirls 🇨🇦

Dear Alex I'm sorry I didn't ask your permission before posting this - but I feel that since it's merely a construct you won't be too perturbed at this letter's direction to you. So it's been a week on the road. Two days in Slovakia, which I enjoyed immensely, perhaps mainly because my feet didn't hurt and there was cheap beer everywhere you turned. That and a huge unforgiving rainstorm while Bratislava-bound with my mum, in which we got drenched and elicited concern and pitying looks from others. We continued warm though, if a little Gray-Gardens-esque. Summer showers; little better. We crossed the border, too, on a thunderstorm, though this one was dry and fork-lightening-spattered. Down the Danube the border is obvious - Slovak care for rollerbladers and cyclists gives way to intense greenery and undefined paths; whither they lead you have to guess (and we were lucky!). Hungary is polarising - such kindness and such stern disapproval I have felt. Two nights ago at a campsite I was given a 'stuck' (we speak in terrible German - it is comfortable for all) for free because of my walking goals, and last night I camped grudgingly at a 'lux' campsite for 17€. And the mosquitoes... And the steak-sized cheese, fried, you warned me about. I've become more carnivorous this last year, but mostly ask for vegetarian options. And it is all true :) I plan to go to Bicske, the site of a refugee camp, tomorrow. I will write more, sometime. Thank you, meanwhile, for being the first of my alphabet envoyees! With love, B.
