With summer fast approaching many of my nearest and dearest are gearing up for their first ever overseas backpacking adventures. While travel plans differ wildly from person to person it seems like everyone has been asking the same question: What the heck am I going to pack? Fear not young backpacker! My unscientific and informal poll has yielded the following helpful backpacking hints.

I recently spent an amazing weekend in Tofino at Roxy Surf Camp (slide show coming soon!), but the trip had me thinking of my favourite must-stops on Vancouver Island.

The countdown is officially on.  I am leaving for Nantucket in less than four weeks and my packing panic has already set in. On top of my basics—Ralph Lauren swimsuit, J.Crew T-shirts, Milly sundress and Michael Kors woven tote bag—I know that my bags will also be stuffed to the gills with every lotion and label in my closet.

Hi, everyone! I’m home from my travels and back on the online desk. After I returned from Spain, I immediately hopped on a plane to California for a road-trip odyssey across the southern U.S.

Last Tuesday, I attended the Mango fall collection at Barcelona’s Raluy Circus, which came complete with a big-top tent, a stunning acrobatic display and waiters with sad-clown faces.

I’ve spent the morning wandering around all the shops near my hotel (think: Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Burberry) and the independent boutiques down in the old medieval city. I’ll let you in on my finds soon (i.e., when I can get my pictures off my camera!).

I stepped in as the online editor for FASHIONMagazine.com at the end of March and I thought it was about time I said hello. I’m really thrilled to be jumping into the website right now; there are so many exciting things happening, like our partnership with MySpace and the big one, our Reporter Search. I’m especially thrilled about this contest, since it lets our team peer into those corners of the country we don’t normally see.
