I’ve never driven an electric car before and as soon as I opened the door to the latest BMW i3, I knew I was in for a treat. In spite of its compact size, the interior was very roomy with details that were subtly futuristic, which gave the experience a special touch. Complete with two easy-to-use displays, I was excited to head out to my dad’s place for Father’s Day. Continue reading
In my line of work, my hours are sporadic, I can (if I choose to) go to an event morning, noon and night, and travel can be arranged at a moment’s notice. It’s at once exhilarating and exhausting, but add a puppy into the mix and it can quickly become irresponsible depending on the situation. Last week, I picked up Curry from our first boarding experience after being whisked away to Marseille, France, by Air Transat for five days. I’m pretty sure she would’ve stayed another five days if she had it her way, that’s how much she enjoyed it. Continue reading
I can’t think of a better way to head up north than in a sports coupé. I got to test drive the BMW 4 Series last long weekend and was it ever a ride.

The topic of millennials is a hot one for many reasons, especially when it comes to consumer culture. This generation is undeniably changing the face of the product and service industry. Of course, the accessibility of technology and information plays an equally important role. Continue reading
For any of you who follow me on Instagram, you probably noticed that I just got back from a trip to Berlin. (The post about why is coming shortly!) Although extremely exciting — I’d never been and had always wanted to go — it was also extremely last minute. So I hardly had any time to prepare. Continue reading
Writing is therapeutic. You don’t have to be a good writer to keep a journal or to jot down your thoughts and feelings — even if they’re fleeting — onto a napkin. In fact, the therapy can reside in that disposable action. Write it down, get it out of your system and then trash it. Continue reading

I’m the child of divorce, as so many of us are. Continue reading
