Diner en Blanc Toronto is FINALLY back!

When it comes to events that I would attend every year like clockwork in the “before times” – pre-pandemic I am light-heartedly referencing – there are a handful that I would NEVER MISS when we lived in Toronto. On the other side of what has been a transformative few years, and now living in Ottawa for sake of getting to adoption sooner, I am so excited by the return of one event that we have solidified out tickets and have booked the time off. Let’s talk about the triumphant return of Diner en Blanc Toronto for it’s 9th iteration and a triumphant return and a magical experience we wouldn’t miss for the world!

Yet Another Reason to Visit Montreal

With the summer months around the corner and sunshine shinning on my face today while I catch up on emails I find myself feeling inspired to plan travel and day trips with Julio. Our Kia Canada Seltos is ordered and on the way, and it would be a shame if I didn’t take advantage of being so close to Montreal while we live in Ottawa – in case you didn’t have enough reasons to visit the city, a new experience just launched at one of my favourite hotels in the city and I want to tell you all about it!

Here’s Why We Needed to Get to Whistler

By now you’ve probably heard Julio or I talking about our upcoming trip to the west coast for our wedding anniversary. This trip has become a tradition for us and one that I look forward to all year long. Whether it’s the distance from our day-to-day lives (and stress) or the energy that only the West coast is able to offer us, this helps us reset and refocus every time we visit. If you want to read about what we are up to in Vancouver this year, you can click here. But let’s talk about why we absolutely needed to get to Whistler this time around and why I can’t wait to see Julio’s face when he sees the mountains for the first time.

Three Things You May Not Know About Me That Make Me Who I am Today

Over the span of eight years, you would assume that I have shared (and probably overshared) everything you could possibly imagine about who I am. The fun part about the blog is that it has grown and evolved, changed and changed again with me as I did the same. All these years later, I still get excited to share intimate moments and memories to help you understand me as a person. Now a husband, soon to be a Dad in the coming years, and always avidly travelling with you in tow on social media, this blog post is a love letter of sorts to three things you may not know yet that make me who I am today.
