Carly Rae Jepsen
On October 12th, 2013 I went to a Carly Rae Jepsen concert in Simcoe, ON, only knowing a few of her songs. Afterwards I was so impressed that I swore to become a lifelong fan. Since that day I've listened to Carly Rae Jepsen around 4000 times, bought her albums in digital and physical formats, met her in person and even went to New York City to see her in Cinderella. As a classic rock fan and not a huge pop fan in general, I'm the last person you'd expect to be a lifer. I can't believe it myself.
Born in Mission, B.C. in 1985, Carly Rae Jepsen first came to fame on Canadian Idol in 2007. After placing third in the competition she made her first album, Tug of War with producer Ryan Stewart. Although she was nominated and won several awards, it wasn't until Call Me Maybe came out that she became an international super star.
Although originally winning me over with her singing, it's her song writing and passion for music that keeps me hooked. You can see that passion for yourself when she first auditioned on Canadian Idol.
I've tried to keep the series as interesting as possible, with puzzles, multis, wherigos, trails, parks and history. About half of the caches are small or larger and there are no nanos, pine trees, impossible puzzles or serious tree climbs!
