What’s the most surreal place you’ve ever been? That’s the question we ask every traveler we meet. A little over a year ago, without knowing what we were doing, we launched this little blog having no idea how quickly it would evolve. Fast forward to today, and this is my full time gig…
As I write this blog, we’re in the middle of our 7th week of being completely plant based. We haven’t had a single animal product in 45 days and we’ve learned a lot in a short period of time. There are so many things we want to tell you about but today we want to…
OUR LUXURY MASTER BEDROOM The Final Reveal Holy sweet lord I can’t believe it’s finally here! Our Luxury master bedroom makeover is complete! OK, full disclosure time. In hindsight, I may have bitten off more than I could chew with this One Room Challenge. There were many moments where I felt like I was in…
Last year we decided that we would prioritize buying local for the holidays. After visiting and connecting with so many local artisans and business owners who are doing the most uniquely wonderful things we wanted to do our part to support them so the Nova Scotia gift guide was born. Statistically speaking, December is…

ONE ROOM CHALLENGE WEEK 6 It’s week 6 of the One Room Challenge and this is typically reveal week! But, with everything that’s been happening around the world, Linda (aka our little angel) has decided to extend the project for the first time ever so we have an extra week. THANK YOU LINDA! If…
In the past year, we have consumed more than 200 restaurant meals (we added it up). In fact, that’s a conservative estimate and it’s very likely that we are much closer to 300 meals eaten in restaurants, pubs, cafes, food trucks, and eateries. In that time, we have never ordered a vegetarian or vegan option…
It’s week 5 of the One Room Challenge – can you believe that?!? Let’s just say it. If you’re a newbie in the decorating world, hanging a gallery wall can be daunting if you’ve never attempted it before. We’ve been living in our loft apartment for over 2 years now and we don’t have…
*Sponsored Post* Since we started travelling together over 4 years ago, we’ve become bonafide road trip experts. We do at least two long-haul (more than 2,000km) road trips each year and dozens more shorter trips (less than 1,000 km). We’ve become proficient distance drivers, able to cover long distances with very few breaks and…
We all know we should back up our files, right? But how many of us actually do that? We say “we’re going to” and then weeks, months and sometimes years go by before we put a plan in place. More often than not, it takes a disaster to light a fire under our asses to…
