Hey there! I’m Heather — a traveler, adventure seeker, and proud Canadian based in beautiful British Columbia 🍁

I started Next Stop Wander as a way to share two of my biggest passions: traveling the world and capturing it through my lens. Whether I’m hiking through mountain trails, diving into clear blue waters, or sipping espresso at a quiet café, I believe in slow, intentional travel that allows you to truly experience a place.
✈️ My Travel Style
I love to travel and the freedom that comes with it — choosing your own path, setting your own pace, and leaning into the magic of the unknown. I haven’t tackled backpacking just yet, but it’s high on my bucket list.
Instead of racing from place to place, I believe in slow travel: soaking in the atmosphere, connecting with locals, and appreciating the small moments (especially if they involve coffee ☕).


Beyond the Blog
When I’m not planning my next adventure, you’ll probably find me sipping coffee, hiking through nature, swimming, or diving somewhere tropical. I’m semi-fluent in Spanish, always chasing scenic views, and forever inspired by the wild beauty of my home in British Columbia.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope that you’ll find my blog to be a valuable resource for your own journey.
