It was four years ago Sun Media shipped me out to cover the 2010 Games in Vancouver. Back when I was ‘The Canadian Explorer‘.  That all felt odd to type.

I was hired to produce a video / day on weekdays, and a daily 100-word column.

The column was called, “Social Keri”. I had not input there.

That backpack, my mobile studio – 22 pounds. Now it’s half that.

I could do an entire video, “What’s really happening behind all these videos and columns”.

I got the job because I sold the “a video a day” angle, except I’d never done that before. So I sent myself into training, practicing writing “100 Words Today“, and producing a daily video series called, “Live at 5“.

Or that newspaper headshot, I hadn’t slept for 62 hours there. Of course my camera broke the day before I left.

Until that video, here’s a mega post about my 3 weeks at the Games.

I even managed to secure a sponsorship, and by Canada Goose at that.

My camera is on a garbage can, ha.
