My name is Omar and this is my shiny new blog for discussing the travels and excitement of the Outdoor Adventure Program.
I'd like to kick start the blog by telling you a little bit about myself. My home town is Markham, Ontario where I grew my love for adventure through summers in cottage country and memorable adventures with friends throughout our amazing province. After doing some traveling for a year in Quebec, Ontario & British Columbia through the Katimavik program I decided to get back to school and joined Algonquin College.
Our first skills week has just passed and I was scheduled to start snowboarding. My past attempts at snowboarding had been in vain but this year proved to finally sell the sport to me. With expert coaching from our skills instructors I was able to confidently use heel & toe edging and learn the basics of instruction for beginner snowboarders. I was so excited by the end of the two days that this weekend I went out and bought my first board. I am the proud new owner of a Rossignol Imperial deck. I'll also be ending each of my posts with my favourite new song to ride to.
Ride Music:
This first week is going to be a classic Daft Punk track covered by a retro 80's style Danish band called Alphabeat. Be sure to check out some of their other stuff.
