When Vettä Nordic Spa first opened its doors two years ago, I knew I had to visit. Being an avid spa-goer, I was ecstatic to learn there would finally be a Nordic spa opening so close to Toronto. Located in beautiful Horseshoe Valley, just north of Barrie, Vettä offers a secluded oasis away from the […]
Though it usually gets a bad rap, Valentine’s Day has always had a special place in my heart. The heart-decorated desserts, cheeky Valentine’s cards and over-the-top displays of affection for one day of the year make it such a fun-loving occasion. Though there’s no beau in my life (just yet), that doesn’t mean I can’t […]
Last September, I got to visit one New York’s newest observatories, the Edge NYC at Hudson Yards. Known for its spectacular views, New York City has been a top destination for some of the world’s best observatories. The Edge, which opened its doors during the pandemic, offers a suspended outdoor sky deck with 360-degree views. […]
This past fall I was lucky enough to be invited to Vancouver Fashion Week, while finding the best things to do in Vancouver along the way. Desperately needing a mental reset, I naturally booked a flight and just went. This became a last minute surprise trip I gifted to myself because sometimes a self-care trip […]

This year was the first time in three years that most spring babies could finally celebrate their birthdays. Being a spring baby myself, I decided to book a staycation at the Kimpton Saint George Hotel right in the heart of downtown Toronto. Having severely missed the feeling of staying somewhere new, it only felt right […]
It’s been a crazy year to say the least. For one, I ended up starting my own swimwear line that would never have been possible if 2020 never happened. For a year that was dreaded by many – when you look back – you realize how much freedom it gave you to pursue what makes […]
I know we’ve been in lockdown for pretty much the entire year now but this one had me at my breaking point. The strain of the mounting restrictions this spring hit a bit different, especially since even outdoor activities remained closed. For me, as well as many others, it took a toll our mental health.

During this lockdown, the only thing that’s been on my mind is to hit up some of Toronto’s top spas when it’s over. Having spent most of the year with minimal social contact and being confined to our homes, it’s been mentally straining to say the least. Most of us have adjusted to this way […]
