Girl Time


When we first moved here, Zoe and I were determined to take time to enjoy Nova Scotia and all it has to offer. We have done some exploring: We enjoy the farmers markets, the small businesses, the seafood. We have been to the bigger cities like Yarmouth New Minas and Halifax but usually for necessity not exploration. 

Two weeks ago we put our minds to trying this again. We are choosing one day a week and we have been exploring some beaches and incorporating some local food, whether it be a food truck, a scoop (or two) of ice cream, or a local owned restaurant

It has been so delightful to spend this time with Zoe and to see more of what this beautiful province has to offer. We have stepped on rock beaches, white sand beaches, beaches known for sea glass collecting and loved the feel and mood of them all. 

There are three other reasons for these weekly jaunts. 
One: Zoe and I love crafting and are doing a lot collecting off these beaches which we are hoping to turn into local products for our marketplace. 
Two: I have wanted a better knowledge of local spots to take people to when they visit. 
Three: this spring has been stressful and digging my toes in the sand has a way of grounding me and calming me as I tip my head to the sun and smile. 


I love this part of the world I have chosen as Twogirls Headquarters!
