		<description><![CDATA[Back in February 2011, a friend of mine gave me a shout to help write and edit a few pages for a website called Healthy Living Canada.

When we become hooked by a particular idea, story or controversy, we dive into it, swimming in the depths of the material, research, interviews - anything we can get our hands on - before bringing the story to the surface. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=meghanjoyward.com&#038;blog=2279998&#038;post=2665&#038;subd=meghanjoyward&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At last, some photos of Nepal from my trip back in the fall of 2011. I wrote throughout the journey on my blog, The Campsite, and you can view all of those blogs here. I am also currently working on a feature story about the impacts of mountaineering and tourism on the local culture in Khumbu, so stayed tuned for news on that publication.

		<description><![CDATA[I don’t know about you, but the end of each year brings me the opportunity to take a glance at the previous years and all the joys, challenges and trials that came with it. Scrolling through my blog from this past year brought back many happy memories and, most of all, heaps of gratitude for the adventures and new experiences that came my way. Here’s just a sampling of the highlights from this past year! Thanks to everyone that have made my dreams a reality.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=meghanjoyward.com&#038;blog=2279998&#038;post=2359&#038;subd=meghanjoyward&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My final preparations are being made for my 9 weeks in Nepal! With a Monday departure, I've finally wrapped up any remaining contracts and started putting items aside to pack. I'll be trekking in Nepal with my husband and a few friends in a variety of areas, including Mustang, Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Manaslu and Everest (no climbing, though!) I've just written a longer post for my blog, The Campsite, if you're curious to know more. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=meghanjoyward.com&#038;blog=2279998&#038;post=2332&#038;subd=meghanjoyward&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
