What could be more magical than enjoying the holid What could be more magical than enjoying the holidays at a castle? @casalomatoronto’s Holiday Lights is back for another year and it’s sure to get you into a festive mood! This self-guided walk begins in the lower gardens and takes you through the upper gardens, through the century’s-old tunnel and up in the stables and carriage house where a special someone is waiting. 

This is one of the best holiday experiences in Toronto, perfect for the whole family.

Got the chance to preview @arcadiaearth last night Got the chance to preview @arcadiaearth last night. Toronto’s latest immersive experience is part art installation and part audio/visual experience. It’s goal is to have you think about your impact on the Earth and rethink how you can live a more sustainable life. You’re wandering through various rooms, each designed by different artists and touching on different issues our planet faces. The sensory room with various landscape smells was my favourite. Opens today at The Well. *hosted

🎉This is 40 🎉 It’s an extra special trip a 🎉This is 40 🎉 It’s an extra special trip around the sun this year as I step into a new decade. Truthfully, I feel quite indifferent about it. Ask me again this time next year though 😂

I’m certainly entering this decade with much more confidence and focus on what I like and what I don’t like than I did when I turned 30. And in many ways, I feel like I’m just starting to hit my stride.

I’m excited for what the next decade holds. The past 5 years has been very family-focused, so I’m looking forward to getting back to doing more things for me. 

Here’s to more travel, more time with those I love, and staying young at heart ❤️

Hola from Mexico! 🇲🇽 My first time in the co Hola from Mexico! 🇲🇽 My first time in the country! Here’s a look inside the Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres resort. I’ve been here to speak at a conference for travel agents about Instagram and social media. It’s been an awesome few days doing something different (public speaking 😅), learning about the travel agent’s side of things, and connecting with wonderful people. It’s not all work though! I’ve had some time to enjoy the resort. It’s very modern, only opened in 2019, food is excellent and the beach is simply stunning. I don’t want to go home 😆
