not sure if you’re still taking summer vacation requests… but…
I’m in my Tyson Jost era. I’m thinking coastal California road trip or scenic Canadian road trip - no plans, no reservations just pure vanilla cream cold brew, pop punk singalongs, ukulele duets, the open road, beautiful scenery and friends to lovers.
that’s all! 💕
thank you!! love love love josty and I really like this one so I hope you do too!!
word count: 1.3k
come along the world trip
📍banff, canada with tyson jost
You had been on the road with your best friend Tyson for a few days now. Your ultimate goal was to end up in Banff, but your trip to get there was very spontaneous and you were just going to see what happened. After the crazy few months Tyson had, being traded from the Avalanche then seeing them win the cup without him just a few months later then being traded again a short time after that, he was exhausted and just happy to be at home to spend some time with you and his family.
But sitting at home in your small home town soon proved to be a bit boring. Tyson packet up his car, drove to your place, made you pack a bag and off you went. "Banff." Was all he said when you asked where he was planning to go. "Let's just see what happens."
While the drive from St. Albert (I hope that's still where his family lives lol) to Banff technically was only about a four hour drive, you had been on the road for days. He drove you to the Rocky Mountains and that's where you planned on making your way down to Banff. You stopped frequently to go hiking and explore the little mountain towns and then crashed in a nearest hotel for the night or once you had even spent the night in the car. Not the most comfortable night, but definitely the most fun. He had brought his ukulele and you spent a long time coming up with your own songs. It was an especially intimate night you shared, one that really brought all of your feelings for him to the surface. But not wanting to ruin the moment, you kept your mouth shut like you had been doing for the last few years.
Since he didn't live close to you for most of the year and you were only able to visit him every so often you were fine managing your feelings towards him, but every time you saw him, especially now sitting in such tight quarters, they just floated right back up to the surface.
"Alright, next stop: Banff." You had a relaxing morning in the mountains. A nice breakfast with a view, then explored the surroundings a bit more while your laundry was being washed. This hotel thankfully had a few washers and driers, because you had already run out of clean clothes since you didn't expect to be gone so long. But neither of you minded. With the clothes dry, you packed up again and left for your final destination. Not before stopping for your favorite vanilla cream cold brews that had been an every day staple on this trip.
"There! I saw the lake!" You opened your window all the way to see better, but the lake had already disappeared behind a mountain. But the glimpse you got was absolutely stunning. Everything around here was. Tyson grinned back at you, equally excited to see the famous lake with its quaint little town.
On the way, you had booked a small and overpriced Airbnb, but that was the only thing available so you took it. You got settled there, but immediately left again to go on another little hike. You stopped at a grocery store for sandwiches and snacks and off you went again. Keeping up with Tyson was usually difficult, but since he was tired from the season, you had no trouble staying beside him.
"I think I wanna move here," you said, taking a bit of your sandwich, when you paused to take a break. You had stopped at a spot that gave you a perfect overview of the lake below you surrounded by mountains and trees.
"It is beautiful here," he agreed. "I'm surprised you haven't complained yet. I've never seen you so active."
"Hey!" You punched him lightly in the arm. You were both laughing. You paused for a moment, then spoke again. "I'm just happy to spend time with you."
"Me too," he said wrapping an arm around you and pulling you close. He kissed the top of your head, like he always did, and even though your heart ached for him, you knew he didn't mean it that way. You pulled away quickly, taking another bite of your food to distract yourself. "I am happy you're here. I really needed this."
You nodded, understanding where he was coming from. "You're happy there though, right?"
"Yeah, I'm happy there." He brushed his curls out of his face. "Wish you were there though."
"Doesn't everybody?" You tried to joke, but it probably didn't come off like you intended. For how long have you wished you lived closer to him? Lived with him.
You both laughed awkwardly, as you could feel the mood change. Then you jumped up and started packing your food away. "Uhm. Let's keep going."
He did the same and followed your steps closely. But you didn't get very far before you felt his big hand wrap around your forearm and spin you around. You landed right on his chest and before you knew it his lips were on yours.
Frozen, you didn't react while his lips were still touching yours. Oh god. He was kissing you. He was kissing you.
"Sorry, I–" Tyson pulled away embarrassed, but your hands quickly grabbed his cheeks and pulled him back in. "... been meaning to do that for a while."
You smiled and kissed him over and over again until your sweet pecks turned into more. He had you pressed against a boulder and his hands firmly on yours hips as he explored your mouth. Gently, but so passionately you thought you were about to sink into the ground.
Breathlessly, you broke the kiss after a while, but his forehead still leaned against yours as you stood there in silence. In the distance there were sounds of a waterfall, birds, sounds of the forest, and people approaching, but you couldn't hear any of it. You were in a bubble of realization of what just happened, but no regret. Far from that. His gaze was full of love and happiness, which you returned, and although you thought it was impossible, you loved those soft eyes of his even more now.
"Tys," you whispered softly, tilting your head back to feel his lips again. He brushed them with his, gently teasing you.
"I don't know what happened, but after you visited me last time, something changed. I don't know but I realized how much I loved you and how deep down I always have. I was kind of scared to say something, but god, (y/n) when you say these things to me, I–"
"Now you know how I've felt these past few years."
"I'm sorry. I never meant to put you through that." He kissed you. And again. And a third time. "Can you forgive me for my brain just lacking?"
You nodded before he even finished asking his question. You wanted him and never once blamed him for anything. Desperately, you went in for another kiss with your arms wrapped around his neck.
"Wow, hold up," Tyson pulled back before your lips made contact. "I realized I just told you that I loved you. Isn't that a bit too soon?"
"No." You managed to pull him back in. "Tys, I've loved you all the time I've known you. You have no idea what you're doing to me right now, telling me that. Now would you please just kiss me! I've been waiting for this for years!"
"Yea, Ma'am," he whispered with a chuckle and finally age you that kiss you'd been waiting for.

Bighorn Sheep on a Hillside on the Lake Minnewanka Scenic Drive (Banff National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: I've been at this exact same spot almost a year ago the July before. I've been lucky in that I had seen a group of a bighorn sheep ewes that afternoon. So here I was the next following year in May, and I had a chance to see several more bighorn sheep in that same spot!

Exploring Canada's Natural Wonders
Tumblr media
Canada is an ideal travel destination for nature enthusiasts and adventurers, boasting vast and diverse landscapes. From the majestic Rocky Mountains to the rugged coastal cliffs on the Atlantic, Canada's natural wonders offer a breathtaking array of experiences that are as awe-inspiring as they are unforgettable.
Niagara Falls, one of the world's most famous natural wonders, is a majestic sight that any visitor should experience. The power and beauty of the waterfalls straddling the Canadian and American borders are awe-inspiring. Visitors can join the Maid of the Mist boat tour for a closer look at the impressive falls, enjoy a panoramic view from the Skylon Tower observation deck, or hike in Niagara Glen.
Banff National Park, situated in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, showcases Canada's breathtaking alpine scenery. The stunning landscape of towering peaks, turquoise glacial lakes, and lush valleys looks like something out of a fairy tale. Lake Louise, a beautiful jewel of the park, is famous for its crystal-clear waters that reflect the surrounding peaks. The smaller Lake Moraine is no less stunning, with its turquoise waters surrounded by snowcapped peaks. The park offers many adventure opportunities, like hiking through pine forests, biking along scenic trails, and paddling around the lakes.
For travelers looking to explore the coast of Nova Scotia, the Cabot Trail is a picturesque highway winding through the Cape Breton Highlands and offering breathtaking views of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Atlantic Ocean. The Cabot Trail is spectacular, with its rocky cliffs, verdant woods, and quaint seaside towns. Visitors can explore hiking trails like the Skyline Trail for panoramic coastline views or join whale-watching tours to see marine life up close.
On the east coast, in Newfoundland and Labrador, lies Gros Morne National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site showcasing the raw beauty of the Atlantic region. The dramatic landscapes here include fjords, towering cliffs, and dense forests reminiscent of Norwegian landscapes. The Tablelands, a striking feature of the park, offers a unique glimpse into the Earth's mantle, with its exposed reddish rocks. Adventurers can explore many hiking trails, like the Gros Morne Mountain trail, for panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.
The Great Bear Rainforest on the west coast of British Columbia is a stunning example of natural beauty and power. This untouched rainforest is home to Canada's most beloved wildlife, such as the rare Kermode bear, also known as the "spirit bear." The rainforest boasts towering ancient trees, waterfalls, and fjords cutting through the coastline. Travelers can join wildlife-viewing safaris, boat rides through the glacial fjords, or guided nature walks.
Lastly, Canada is an ideal destination for watching the Northern Lights. The elusive and breathtaking phenomenon draws thousands of visitors to many countries in the Northern Hemisphere, and Canada provides several areas with high chances of spotting the stunning natural phenomenon. The Northern Territories, Manitoba, Yukon, and Nunavut are popular spots to watch the aurora borealis from autumn to spring. Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario, and Alberta are other regions where travelers can experience the dancing lights, especially away from the cities.
Whether seeking adventure, tranquility, or a chance to marvel at extraordinary landscapes, travelers will find it in Canada's natural wonders. The primary requirements to embark on an unforgettable journey to explore Canada's natural marvels are well-equipped bags and hiking boots.

Coastal Drives and Majestic Mountains: A North American Nature Tour
Tumblr media
North America offers a dazzling array of natural wonders, making it a paradise for those seeking scenic beauty and outdoor adventure. From the rugged coastlines of California to the towering peaks of the Rocky Mountains, this vast continent is home to some of the most breathtaking landscapes on Earth. Embarking on a journey through these diverse environments promises an unforgettable experience for any traveler.
Starting along the Pacific Coast, one of the most iconic routes is the Pacific Coast Highway in California. This legendary drive offers sweeping views of the ocean, with cliffs dropping dramatically into the sea below. As you wind your way through Big Sur, you'll find yourself immersed in a world of towering redwoods, misty mornings, and the endless expanse of the Pacific. Stops along the way, like the charming towns of Carmel-by-the-Sea and Santa Barbara, offer a chance to explore the local culture and cuisine.
Heading north, the coastal beauty transitions into the majestic peaks of the Canadian Rockies. In British Columbia and Alberta, the landscapes shift dramatically from the ocean's edge to snow-capped mountains. Banff and Jasper National Parks are must-see destinations, where turquoise lakes like Lake Louise and Moraine Lake are framed by towering peaks and dense forests. Whether you're hiking along a mountain trail, kayaking on a crystal-clear lake, or simply soaking in the view, the Rockies offer a sublime connection with nature.
Crossing over to the United States, the journey continues through the Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado, where the rugged terrain offers a different yet equally stunning perspective. The Trail Ridge Road, one of the highest paved roads in North America, provides panoramic views of alpine tundra and lush valleys. Wildlife enthusiasts may spot elk, moose, and bighorn sheep, making this region a haven for animal lovers and photographers alike.
Further south, the Blue Ridge Parkway in the Appalachian Mountains offers a more serene, rolling landscape. Stretching through Virginia and North Carolina, this drive is known for its vibrant fall foliage and gentle, mist-covered mountains. The Smoky Mountains, part of this range, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and offer some of the best hiking trails in the eastern United States. The region's deep cultural roots, reflected in traditional music, crafts, and storytelling, add a rich layer to the natural beauty.
For those who crave a mix of coastal and mountain experiences, the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State provides a unique combination. Here, you can explore the rugged coastline with its tide pools and sea stacks, and then venture inland to the Hoh Rainforest, one of the few temperate rainforests in the world. The Olympic Mountains, with their glacier-capped peaks, are perfect for both summer and winter activities.
Throughout this journey, travelers will find endless opportunities for adventure, relaxation, and immersion in nature's splendor.
