Volvo Canada Is About To Change The Game

Today I am lucky enough to be attending several events around the city, and it makes me smile to know that I can share it with you all. But it also makes me remember how much I love driving and how I do miss it in the city of Toronto. Thankfully the first event of the day is with Volvo Canada to celebrate the launch of the evolution of car ownership by launching CARE BY VOLVO™ in Canada. “With technology changing the very nature of what it means to own a car, Volvo is embracing a new, streamlined approach to car ownership by offering its first subscription-based program.” Continue reading “Volvo Canada Is About To Change The Game”

Learning More About Great Canadian Cottages

One of my favourite parts about what I get to do here at Do The Daniel is making some incredible friends. Over the past five years, I have met and befriended some of the most inspiring people both here in Canada and abroad. Two of my absolute favourites are the talented Colin & Justin – and so when I found out that this dynamic duo have a new show coming to Cottage Life on October 18th I took the time to sit down and catch up with them about life and what this new endeavour means to them. Come & take a look at one of the shows I am most looking forward to this fall and why I’ll be watching Great Canadian Cottages when it starts this week – it doesn’t get much more Canadian than this!

Moments & Memories That Deserve To Be Celebrated

Over the past few years, I have come to appreciate the moments that I am lucky enough to share with you all more and more. I think that amid a busy schedule, writing blog posts, meetings and everything that goes into running the blog with Catherine, I sometimes got lost in the pace of it all. Since losing my Dad in 2016, and facing some health issues of my own, I am reminded how short life really can be and how it is important to cherish the beautiful moments because I never want to take anything (or anyone) for granted ever again. So when the team at Grand Marnier Canada recently invited me to celebrate #WeLiveGrand at Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Toronto, I knew it would be a magical night that I simply had to share with you. It also brought back beautiful memories of a brand that has been a part of my life for a very long time.  Continue reading “Moments & Memories That Deserve To Be Celebrated”

Nothing is More Memorable Than The Perfect Fragrance

Have you ever been walking, minding your business or lost in emails on your phone during a busy day, and smelled something that made you stop in your tracks? This happens to me all the time. Whether it’s the smell of turkey this past weekend that immediately brought me back to memories of my mom & dad in the kitchen in Ottawa during Thanksgiving, or the smell of a cologne that brought back memories of specific men in my life. I am someone who loves to smell good and I believe that choosing the right fragrance completes my morning routine. Earlier this year I was introduced to two scents that I have added to my rotation (yes, I collect fragrances. A habit I picked up in my last relationship) and I wanted to share why each of them adds something distinct to my day-to-day life.)
