Check out our quick Q&A with this amazing mother and blogger.

1. Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and your blog? 

“I’ve been blogging for over 6 years. Full time for 3. It started out with a style focus only but slowly over time became about my full lifestyle. My home, babies, beauty, travel and recipes joined my fashion foundation. I’m lucky enough that blogging is my full-time job, so I get to stay at home with my little guys to make my own hours.”

2. What Instagram filter or photo editing apps do you swear by?

“Snapseed is a must for getting a more professional look to your phone photos.”

3. What are the top five places you’ve explored, and what trips do you have lined up this year?

“I love anything warm for the most part. Maui is my number one for the relaxing factor, we go yearly. Las Vegas is my fave for food and shopping. New York a close third for all of the above. Montreal and Victoria round out my picks for my favourite Canadian destinations.”

4. What city or country served you the best meal you’ve ever had, and what was it? 

“Las Vegas, Bacchanal in Caesars Palace. Worth the price and the daily giant lineup.”

5. What’s your advice for travelling with young children?

“Pack a few more snacks, diapers and outfits than you think you need. Because it’s better to have too many compared to the awful alternative, not enough!”
