Quarantine Life in Photos
This past weekend marked exactly three months since quarantine began. As restrictions slowly start to loosen up in our city, I thought I’d document these last months in photos. My goal was to highlight beauty that was present during a period when time seemed uncertain and when time truly stood still. Let’s talk about time…

The Best Sunsets of My Life
I haven’t seen a sunset in over a month. That’s 31 days of Spring without a sunset. For a lot of us right now, it’s an unusual new reality. Sunsets are a daily occurrence that some may take for granted, but not me. I’m that quintessential sucker for sunsets. Why? Because even though I’ve seen…

Being Present During a Busy Time
The start of this year has kept us away from our usual Winter ritual of binge-watching / snacking / cocooning.

Montreal was the first trip we took together, and that trip was the…

Seeing The Bright Side Of Things: My Warm Intake on Winter
For the longest time, I was convinced my parents chose the wrong country to immigrate to. Born in a sunny Mediterranean country, my blood is just not physically equipped to handle the cold and grey days for six months out of twelve. That’s half a year of icy winds to the face, wet slush, hibernation (read: weight…

2014: The Year I Found Myself
The start of a new year is either exciting, or is met with a sigh of relief. It’s a fresh new start. A blank canvas. It’s 365 days and nights of stories and experiences that have yet to happen. Sometimes though, a new year can start off badly. New Years can be heavy, dark and…
