Who is Carole?
The Yukon has been my home since 2002, and I can see myself living here for a very long time. This blog is a wonderful way to keep family and friends back home in touch with what’s going on around me. Playing around with my camera also keeps me busy, so I’ll probably include a few pictures here and there.
Enjoy!

Carole, I think I’m your first colleague to blog you. (sounds like a disease, doesn’t it).
Congratulations! I wouldn’t know where to begin in creating my own blog. Love your home page poem. I’ll keep browsing. Cheers.

Carole: I am just so impressed with your site. I will add it to my favourites. You’re one talented lady.
Your photos are so lovely, and your words equally so.
I’ve always heard Alaska is a must-do destination, maybe someday I’ll get your uncle there.
Hugs Donna

Hey, Aunt Donna!
Thanks for visiting my blog… and for your kind words. Yes, if you and Uncle Noël come up, I’ll have much to show you! The Yukon and Alaska are definitely wonderful places to visit, and even better places to live (at least I can speak for the Yukon). The door is always open for you.

Awe, thanks Tiffany. Everyone else, meet my cousin Tiffany, who I last saw in July 2007 at my brother’s wedding. Gorgeous young lady, with a great sense of humour.
Hey Nicholle…such kind words. Today was very exciting, but a little nerve-wracking too. I didn’t have any teaching today, but I met the students, and they seem like a good bunch. I was busy organizing some more, which probably won’t ever end, I don’t know. lol

Hi Carole,
Chip shared stories of all the lovely people he worked with. You were among them. I was looking at your pictures… Chip would have loved it there. I wish he’d visited you so he could see it. I hope I hear from you. I’d like to contact Travis too. All the best to you.

Hi Carol,
My wife and I have been seriously looking into relocating to the north from Southern Ontario to teach as a couple. The Yukon (hopefully Whitehorse or Dawson) is our first choice. Any pointers on getting a teaching job there.
Thanks, Love your blog

How nice! Thanks guys! I think my favourite one is when we’re all dressed in our bloody, yellow aprons cheering with a glass of red wine. What fun we had!

Hi Carole,
I am toying with the idea of applying to teach in Yukon and came across your blog. I am originally from NB, Canada but currently work at an International School in Beijing, China and want to work my way back to Canada. Eventually I think I want to settle back in around the maritimes – but right now I’m looking for a little more adventure before that happens. Any advice on what areas to apply for or to avoid? Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Tessie,
As you can see from today’s post, I’m not very far from you at the moment. The Yukon is a great place to live and work. I will get back to you when I return in a couple of weeks.
