A loss in the family prompted Erica, her husband and their cat to put all their belongings in storage and leave Canada for a new adventure in Haarlem, NL. She's half-Dutch with a big maple leaf heart. Travelling and finding stories to share are two of her favourite things. She’s a writer and communications professional who watches too much television and enjoys curling up in a spot of sunshine with a good book. You can follow her adventures on the blog, The Travelling Shus.
