Vegas Baby!

So it might be a couple months late, but hey, better late than never! Around Christmas time I had the wonderful opportunity to go to a friends wedding in Vegas (where their family was) and get to explore the city a little while we were there!

It was really neat stepping off the plane and seeing palm trees and cacti on the taxi ride to the resort, the landscape there is unlike anything I had ever seen in Canada or Europe.

Everyone had prepped me for Vegas being a crazy, loud, and very bright place and boy they were not kidding. The place I was staying at was a few miles off the strip – something I would recommend to people who aren’t looking to party 24/7. I did enjoy the Vegas Strip, but more for the novelty of it.

My favourite part of the city I ended up going to was “downtown” on Freemont street. The vibe there is a bit more relaxed and it feels a lot less tourist-y something I try and avoid.

What a fun city though! We saw a show, explored the different hotels, saw the fountains, had some great food, and enjoyed wonderful company. To top it all off, it was a beautiful wedding and not what one would think of when they hear “Vegas Wedding”.

Enjoy the pictures of the magical Las Vegas!

Until next time!

Different Directions

I’ve mentioned on here I wanted to make my blog more inclusive to writing about a variety of topics and that is why the blog has undergone a little makeover in light on this transition. I hope to still post about travel when I do and I will certainly make that a featured part of the blog however I want to make this more about self discovery and improvement.

The name? Creating Caitlyn – it stems from my ever persistent desire to be more creative in life, and also the fact that life is about creating yourself not finding yourself. This is something I wish to embody in every sense and to essentially create the best “me” I can.

Due to the switch it seems that a lot of my photos from past posts have magically deleted themselves! I’ll be updating them in the weeks to come to get everything back to where it was hopefully.

As I am approaching graduation in a couple of months, it has certainly been a period of reflection and contemplation. I’ve been updating resumes, getting headshots done, attending career fairs and the list goes on! The rest of my life is staring me in the face as I try to decide which path to go down. Join me in the adventures of starting fresh and giving up my formal title as “student”!

Until next time!
