#EtsyRoadTrip, Hola Toronto!

Sunday, August 17, 2014 by Jessika Hepburn

Jordan De Ruiter, #etsyroadtrip Toronto

Toronto, the final stop on our #EtsyRoadTrip was an explosion of people and sounds after the quiet streets of Kingston (catch up on our previous events in Ottawa/Kingston & Montreal)! Darice and I hit the town once we were settled into our cozy Kensington Market Airbnb that screamed all things Canada from the Hudson's Bay blankets on the bed to the snowshoe mounted on the … [Read more...] about #EtsyRoadTrip, Hola Toronto!

Weaving with a common thread: community, creativity & compassion

This summer I travelled home in many ways. Home to the place where I know the skyline and the smell of the ocean like I know the curves of my children's faces.

Most of all home to the common thread that has woven its way through my life: community. … [Read more...] about Weaving with a common thread: community, creativity & compassion

#EtsyRoadTrip, Ottawa & Kingston #omhg

After having a grand time in Montreal, Darice and I hit the road to start the next part of our adventure. We rolled into Ottawa the day before our event and met up with a new friend I met at the Hollyhock Summer Gathering who took us on a tour of the city and Gatineau, Quebec. Our Airbnb was a top floor apartment in a brick building near downtown Ottawa as modern as our … [Read more...] about #EtsyRoadTrip: Hello Ottawa & Kingston!

#EtsyRoadTrip Bonjour Montreal!

Bonjour amis de Montréal! Hello my friends from Montréal! The first stop on our #etsyroadtrip was packed with handmade goodness and creative community. My road trip partner and assistant editor Darice and I met for the first time and dove right into our adventures (& a deeper friendship) heading straight from our beautiful Airbnb in a 1920's row house to Olympic Park for … [Read more...] about #EtsyRoadTrip Bonjour Montreal!

Care/Carry/Cure an essay from ‘You Care Too Much’

In June of 2016 I supported my love Chris as we dealt with the death of both his parents and a co-worker over a three week period. This essay written the summer of those deaths is my attempt to make sense of grief and the struggle to carry all that I care for. Originally published […]
