Before I Die Vancouver

I'm happy to share that the first ever Small World Big Dreams event was a smashing success. Thank you to everyone who came out on Saturday, May 5th to help me install the Vancouver walls, and to those who helped fill the many blank spaces with your dreams. 

I'd like to share some of the photos of the Vancouver wall first (I'll be sharing the photos from the rest of the locations next week). I set up walls at two locations: one in an alley in Chinatown, the other on the corner of W Broadway and Macdonal in Kitsilano. The Chinatown wall is still up, and I hope it stays for as long as possible. Sadly, the Kitsilano wall disappeared a few days after it's installation. I'm choosing to believe that, rather than removed and thrown away, it was stolen by someone who loved it so much they had to have it.

Before I die I want to read every book on my shelf.

The Kitstilano Wall: 

Sadly, I have very few photos of this wall, as it disappeared shortly after it was installed. There were some fantastic responses though! 

Before I die I want to: 

  • communicate with aliens
  • steal my grandma's style
  • solve global warming
  • save an endangered species
  • count the stars
  • meet a pirate
