DETROIT DIARIES · A WALK TO CANADA

One walk.
Two countries.

When your stroll takes you from Detroit all the way to Canada, you know it’s going to be a story worth sharing.

A WALK I WON’T FORGET

My Sunday stroll turned into a trip to another country.

When your Sunday stroll turns into a walk to another country, you already know it’s going to be a memorable day! I walked across the Gordie Howe Bridge from Detroit to Canada, and it was such a special experience.

There’s something exciting about setting out for a walk and realizing you’re crossing an international border on foot. Your girl really took a stroll from Detroit to Canada! 😂

I love finding new ways to explore and make memories close to home. This walk was definitely one for the books—and a reminder that an adventure doesn’t always have to start with a plane ticket.

One walk. Two countries. A memory I’ll keep. 💙
