14 year-old Kate Jackson from Ottawa, Ontario accompanied Cell 2 Soul member Dr. Robert Jackson on a journey to Yellowknife, NWT, Canada. Dr. Jackson asked her to write a brief summary of their trip. Attached, you will find a teenager's impressions of her travels to an exotic place with her grandfather.
" One would think that a highlight of a trip to Yellowknife would be the midnight sun or perhaps all the diamonds. However, as much as these sights did excite me, I found that one of my favourite components to my trip, was not a well-known attraction, but a dessert. If it wasn’t for my grandfather inviting my mum and me to Yellowknife for the International Congress on Circumpolar Health, I would have never come across a rich chocolate torte, accompanied by splashes of colour from fresh fruit, meringue, a sugar cage, handmade chocolate straws and celery leaves."
