As I write this post, I’m somewhere between Buenos Aires and Vancouver… after almost four years away from Vancouver, I feel as though I’m finally coming home. Leaving Buenos Aires is bittersweet, I love the city—the food, the energy, the design, the tree lined streets, the mishmash of styles, the fashion, the café culture, and

Today I bring you something extra fun: a guest post from the hubs! (I’ve been k-o-ed with a doozey of a cold, and he offered up this hilarious post. He’s a keeper!) Enjoy! Very few things drive me crazier than blatant, totally avoidable inefficiency. I realize to some this makes me sound like a crazy
Wow. I can’t believe that it was 6 months ago that I posted my 30-before-30 list on my 29th birthday. My life has changed so much since that day, and I’m so excited about all of the exciting changes still to come this year. After a big day wine and bike touring in Mendoza yesterday,
First of all, I’ve been planning this post for a long time. Much longer than the Toronto Library strike. So this post isn’t really a political statement. Second of all, I hope everyone noticed my awesome pun in the title of this post. If you didn’t, take a sec, and go read it again. ‘Cause
One of the items on my 30-before-30 list is to “be less afraid”. While I admit this goal sounds vague, I actually have a pretty good idea of what I mean (it was maybe just a wee-bit personal for the internet). But, personal-schmersonal I’m going to tell you all about it today! Just like everyone
On a not-so-cold mid-December day in Toronto, I met with Tara McMullen, a wonderful Toronto wedding photographer. I can’t remember when I first heard of Tara, though I’m quite sure it was shortly after I started shooting in Toronto in late 2009. From the moment I saw her work, I was drawn to her style.
I’m so excited to have you here! I imagine you’ve been through lots of blogs recently (and have lots more to visit). So, to save you some time, here is a list of posts I think you’ll be particularly interested in. Enjoy! Travel: Antarctica (Day 4): Where I play with wild baby penguins Barcelona: A
Feliz quinto del mes, amigos! Happy fifth of the month, friends! And, you know what the fifth of the month means… 30-before-30 update time! Before we get started, I want to mention a couple of things: my friend Melissa (West Coast Nest) is turning 30 at the end of this month. She’s got a 30-before-30
Two of my wedding clients last summer had some of the coolest stationary I’ve ever seen. The bride and groom were moving to Paris shortly after the wedding, so they wanted to include some French charm in their decor. The bride designed all the printed material herself (she’s a fashion designer with insane visual design
Guess what, everybody? It’s a leap year! It’s not every year you can post something to the internet on February 29! So here I go. And my chosen topic? Leap years. (Surprised?) I think leap years are king of neat. My childhood friend Adam, who I haven’t spoken to – or thought about much –
I’ve written and re-written the intro to this post. I actually drafted most of this post on the flight home from Ushuaia on Tuesday evening but then Wednesday and Thursday happened. You know when you do something really awesome, be it a trip, a conference, a workshop, a wedding or something else, and then you
As with the rest of this week, this is a pre-programmed post! If all goes according to plan, I’ll be back late Tuesday night with my most epic travel tuesday post yet. If you are very detail oriented, you might notice that Sunday is February 5 and that I owe you my month 4 update
Today is my one year blogiversary. Today I’m getting on a boat to go to Antarctica. Who would have thought that exactly one year after writing this post about my wanderlust, I’d be going to the seventh continent? Don’t worry though. You won’t be lonely! I’ve got a handful of pre-programmed posts scheduled for while
Today we get on a plane – probably right as this post goes live – and fly to Ushuaia, Argentina. If you haven’t heard of Ushuaia, I’m not surprised! On a world map, it is at the very very bottom… You know what’s not on that world map? And you know
A lot of people have been asking about our apartment in Buenos Aires. Ok. One person has asked about our apartment in Buenos Aires. But that is all it takes to inspire me to write a post, people! We rented our apartment site unseen (for 3 months), through a service called ByT Argentina. Here is
