Where the Ocean Meets the Sky. This is where I'm from..

in #teamcanada7 years ago (edited)

I'm from a small town in a province almost completely surrounded by the ocean. The air is fresh and the steady breeze smells of salt water

This place is filled with tranquil beauty, peaceful meadows and rolling hills but none of that is ever very far from the sea

We have the fastest and highest tides in the world. The waves assualt the shores but it has a calming effect on the senses

Here we take pleasure in and earn a living on the water. To spend a day away from the sound of crashing waves and seagulls feels foriegn

Where I'm from people are kind and move a little slower. The tallest building around is most likely to be a lighthouse

Here you can go to a public park but not atually see another person

Around here time passes slowly and u can just enjoy the beauty of a moment

The landscape is forever changing depending on the direction of the tide. The waves will never stop it's been this way for all time

Beautiful. ✨ I also live by the coast in my homeland. Wouldn't trade it for the world... 💯

Where are you from my friend?

Such a lovely place. I like the photo with the light house, the sky is so so unreal with the formations of the white clouds.
The beautiful colored houses along the water shoreline or was it a lake??
thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.

All ocean my friend. Nova Scotia is a Peninsula were almost totally surrounded by the water. Hanging out in the Altantic Ocean

I was going to guess the isle of man, and then I was going to guess Maine. Nova Scotia sure is pretty! You betcha a

Thx for checking out my humble post. Glad I kept ya guessing haha

Stunning man. I am in Colorado, which has very similar views - but we don't have any water =[ I mean... literally, we are dying of thirst. Nestle took it all. I'm kidding about that, we have water - lots of water. Just none that isn't surrounded by land. I guess all water is surrounded by land if you think about it, but you know what I'm getting at.

Great comment haha Fuck nestle! Thx for the look and the laugh @silverfuture

Looks awesome bro! I'm an introvert so beautiful scenery with very few people sounds amazing to me.

The older I get the more I appreciate where I'm from. When I was young I couldn't wait to run off to the city but now.. I'll never go back haha I'm a small town kinda guy

Me too bro, I grew up in a very small town far from any big city. Moved to Houston with millions of people and lived there for years. Finally escaped to a rural area last year.

Good for u man! Haha People scare me so the less around the better 😝 I've always wanted to visit Texas, one day

Texas is a great place, one of the more free States. As long as people wearing guns don't bother you then it's a great place to visit.

yeah man its a beautiful place those photos are stunning ive always lived close to the sea i love it when the big storms come in!

Sea bros! 👊😎

Looks like you live in a beautiful place ! Would be nice to visit Nova Scotia one day.

U have to, no excuse! Haha

Wow, that's a beautiful place you call home! I'm just a tad jealous 😉 The stunning photos made me stop thinking about silver for a minute there! Go Canada, eh?

Heck ya! Thx timitwist. Back to the silver now haha

I posted up my Canadian coins as a compromise between the wanderlust in my heart and the sweet feeling of stacking silver haha

Wonderful images! I look forward to seeing some more - following :)

This is beautiful, all the scenery is so breath taking. I like that it turned into a sort of poem I think it made the experience of your post that much better because I could really see it in my mind :)

Thanks so much! Appreciate ya stopping by 😊

Awesome photos! That looks amazing

Thanks so much. I'm proud of where I'm from. Big thx for stopping by

I too am a small town kind of guy. My mom lives in Chicago and you couldn't pay me to live there (how much $ are we talking? lol) I also love living near the sea. I live about 30 minutes from the the beaches, so I can go any day really. Nova Scotia looks beautiful. I would be proud to live there too! Great post GA!

Thanks bro! Not good enough for a resteem tho? 😜

I already did dork! lol :D

Stunning photos. Shout out from a fellow Canadian!

You're in Nicaragua now?

Yes I am, I was in Costa Rica for 3 months, came here to explore for a month. Then back to Costa Rica for a while. ☺

New Scotland! Fantastic photography! I love the image of Peggy's Cove, if that's where it is! I have always wanted to visit, but when I lived in Ottawa, the only other Province I visited was Quebec. Some day when we are visiting my husband's family in New England we will make the trip to see your beautiful neck of the woods!

I am a fellow Canadian, with American and British citizenships too! Confuses the heck out of folks!
