Peace, Love & Pineapples

You'll notice that my blog has undergone a name change.

What was once "Couch to 13, 284" is now Peace, Love and Pineapples.

Why?

Well, as excited and scared I am about climbing a mountain this year with my sister, I was also a little nervy about putting all my eggs in one basket when it comes to blogging.

I have a lot to say - stories to tell, tales to weave! (Who doesn't?)

I considered starting yet another blog to accommodate my stories and tales of my journey through life: the countries I find myself in and the situations - good and bad - that go with the semi-nomadic lifestyle that I lead. But, that seemed a little silly. Two blogs when oftentimes I find I hardly have a spare moment to write on just one? It seemed like I might be setting myself up for failure, just a tad.

So, I've opened this blog up to the rest of my life.

Yes, there will be frequent updates about the mountain and my preparation to climb it, but there will also be posts about the other fun things that happen in my life (and occasionally the not so fun things) such as the fact that I am writing this from the cosy downstairs bedroom of a beautiful chalet high in the French Alps, where I am living and working for the month.

I'll explain more about the French Alps situation in another post, but for now ....

Welcome to Peace, Love and Pineapples.
