Travel makes the soul grow fonder, so they say. Okay, nobody says that, but they should. The ability to travel and see the world is one of the most amazing things available to us in the modern world. And it’s an opportunity that we need to make sure we seize…
Sometimes we get so caught up in our daily lives that we completely forget to stop and take a look around us. And that’s exactly what inspired me to see Toronto now! I’ve lived here for over five years now and there’s so much that I haven’t seen or done. Even André…
Remember my post about faking a vacation in your own city? Well, I took it up a notch for my Toronto anniversary with a one-night stay at The Anndore House hotel. It was a fiercely welcome time away from my regular routine—especially since I’ve been longing for another trip abroad.…
Millennial restlessness is a real thing and I think I have it. For those who don’t know, millennials have become known for packing up their lives and moving to new cities constantly. Like, way more than previous generations. Five years ago to the day (yes, it’s my Toronto-versary) I packed…
Thrift shopping is one of my favourite weekend activities and in Toronto, I love going to Common Sort.

Well, leo lovers, that time of year has once again come & gone! And the fiercest TIFF 2018 parties I attended did not disappoint. Once the Toronto International Film Festival hits the city, things get absolutely crazy! But I love it. I love everything from getting ready (wine, makeup &…
Fun fact about me: I’m the kind of girl who loves to celebrate. A job promotion? Anniversary? A whole week without carbs? Let’s pop the champagne! (Just kidding—I never go a whole week without carbs. That’s hilarious.) As for my birthday, that’s usually my biggest celebration of the year. And…
There’s no doubt in my mind that Hotel X Toronto is going to be the city’s latest & greatest hot spot. For weekend getaways, romantic celebrations or business travel, this hotel has it all. I swear, I’m not even exaggerating! It’s the city’s first resort-style hotel and features fine dining,…
Sometimes it’s just nice to get away. I mean, you don’t really have to go far! Even just 20 minutes across the city can be enough. Which is why when I checked in for my Radisson Admiral staycation I felt immediately relaxed, rejuvenated and revitalized. After all, one look at…
