such a banger
To soothe the active mind with mynoise.net
As you know, from the WAFO series, I spend a bunch of time in coffee shops during business hours. I use them as remote office spaces to get focus-time on my work. Come to think of it, maybe they’re a candidate for my third-place? On…
getting a new WP theme
I decided to get the Gillion Theme to re-skin this blog. Why not, it’s been a while, right? Thanks much to the team at SparkHive Digital for helping me move things along here!
Discovering remote work venue on Discovery Street!
I’ve been to Discovery Coffee here downtown many times, but not often during business hours! Brought the work laptop this time with the intent to do a work session from this high-top seating position, under the green-wall they’ve built out next to the counter. Really…
Hazy skies above YYJ
Wildfire smoke has crept over the border and taken residence over the skies of James Bay. Didn’t head outside much today except for a quick trip to the grocery store to grab supplies. Made a brief detour along the trail above Holland Point and grabbed…

Finally back at Fort Tectoria!
So pleased to be back working in the Fort Tectoria space down here in the 700 block of Fort Street in downtown Victoria! I worked here quite a bit in the before-times, while I was at UVic. The space features all 4 things you need…
reflecting on the core-mobile
Was hanging out in Picnic Coffee today on Fort Street, and got into a bit of a riff with another customer about old cars. She’s got a 1941 Ford Coupe, that is relatively new to the streets of Victoria. Keep your eyes peeled! I went…
WAFO-29 downtown in Old Towne
So I got a tip from a friend about the great breakfast scene down at Fuego Old Towne Eatery in Market Square. If there’s 2 things I love it is a great breakfast spot, and working remotely! So, I checked in for a sesh recently…
WAFO-28 Got coffee, got cake
I was pleasantly surprised in the stop here at Cat’s Coffee and Cake on Douglas Street in the heart of downtown Victoria. I like these high-top seats to work from. Looking out at the street is nice, and gives me a bunch of elbow room…
WAFO-27 Shatterbox Coffee in Vic Public Market
There are many tables to use in the Victoria Public Market, if you’re a remote worker. The entire market seems to have good WIFI coverage, so you’ll have no issues connecting there. The pictured spot above is actually ripe for people-watching, so keep that in…
WAFO-26 tapping keys at the Taphouse
Decided to try a new patio space today, and enjoyed this stop at the Yates Street Taphouse. Plenty of elbow-room on this October afternoon – I had my Macbook Air set up here to do a bit of homework. IIRC, I was on the #TELUS…
