My Favourite Spot Asides The TIFF Theatres

TIFF is one of the most amazing, incredible, busy and blurry times of the year for me. We always seem to have at least five things on the go at once, and for the most part, the festival seems to end in the blink of an eye. It’s why I have to be honest, I usually have a few select spots that are my favourite to actually stop and enjoy during it all. Not that the entirety of the experience and festival isn’t amazing – but I’m more so meaning the places where I feel most relaxed during the demanding schedule we share with you all. Every single year since launching DoTheDaniel.com, I have been lucky to attend Rock-It Promotions, Inc‘s TIFF lounge. From my humble beginnings writing for another publication, to now running a successful global blog with Catherine, they have been there with me for the journey. Having evolved over the years in both name & size, this year is set to be the best yet! Continue reading “My Favourite Spot Asides The TIFF Theatres”

Whether it’s Ro getting five-year-old Lincoln ready for full days, or Gemma continuing work on her university degree, which might be one of those online mba programs now, we are all focused on this exciting time of year. It’s why I wanted to take a minute to share some interesting facts about Canadians, and how we sometimes need a reminder that #BackToSchool shopping should be done with a budget in mind – goodness knows we all could save a bit of money while getting prepared for the school year.

It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of Year

It may just be me, but it feels like 2018 has flown by. From our adventures around the world, to the changes that are coming at the end of the year for me, it’s been a whirlwind of amazing moments, memories, and people. The trick to keeping up with my schedule? Staying caffeinated and motivated by the things that make me happy. So it should come as no surprise that today, I am celebrating with Canadians from coast-to-coast – because it’s #PSLseason again. And that means that my favourite season is just around the corner!  Continue reading “It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of Year”
