Travel & Lifestyle | Samsung Canada launches their NEW 4K SUHD TV and I need it. Now.

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, I’ve been coveting a lot of Samsung Canada devices as of late. Personally, their technology and innovation has helped to redefine the way I can express myself. But did you know that they also have technology to make the home better? Recently, we were invited to a Blue Jays game along with media friends to celebrate the launch of the new SamsungĀ 4K SUHD TV and I can say with utmost certainty that I need one for our condo IMMEDIATELY. Maybe with one of those great HumaxDirect Freeview boxes as well. My friend had a Freeview box and told me he enjoyed the extra channels very much on his great TV. Come and see some BTS photos from the evening and all the reasons why this is the best television on the market.

Travel & Lifestyle | The #InvatiMen Aveda experience

Like many men in Canada, sometimes I come to realize that I don’t pamper nearly often enough. Maybe it’s my busy schedule or maybe just the fact that I didn’t know where to turn to. You’ll remember that we recently told you about the Invati Men line of products – well, I was lucky enough to be invited for a relaxing Aveda experience with Kristjan Hayden, Creative Director for Aveda, at Civello Salon and I can assure you that it was life changing.

Travel & Lifestyle | Inspiration starts at home & CIL has launched a whole new way to be inspired!

As I’ve gotten older I have come to realize a lot of things about myself and my life. It’s not so much the “things” I have, but rather the memories and experiences I share with Julio and those I love that are important. Finding inspiration can be difficult and I think the best place to start is at home. While having someone like Thomas Buckborough & Associates (https://www.tbadesigns.com/concord-design-build/) come in and remodel one, or multiple, rooms in the house can be such an exciting process, it’s not always possible to be able to set aside the time to make it happen. Therefore, I find that making simple changes to the space I spend so much time both professionally and personally can have a huge effect on my motivation, and ultimately my outlook on life. It’s why when I was invited by the team at CIL Canada to meet renown celebrity designer Yanic Simard to talk about the newly launched colour centres at Home Depot locations across the country, I knew that it was an opportunity I simply couldn’t miss! On top of that, I had some Home Depot coupons to use (if you’re interested, you can learn more here). What could be better?
