Discover: 36 hours in Stratford
First off, let me say that 36 hours was not nearly enough time to spend in the picturesque Ontario town of Stratford. Most people know Stratford as the home of Shakespeare in the Park, the Stratford Festival and perhaps, memories of school field trips start to surface. Now, more famously, it’s become known as home…
Discover: Griffintown, Montreal
If you’re following me on Instagram then you’ll know that I’ve been spending a lot of time in Montreal this past year and may continue to do so since my FIANCE lives there! Long story short but I was also born and raised in Montreal but moved to Toronto with my family when I was…
A Weekend in Montreal
There was no better way to cap the summer off than taking a weekend trip to Montreal. For those who don’t know me, I was actually born and raised in Montreal and moved to Toronto with my family when I was 15 years old. Yes, this means I was fluent in French and may or…
A Weekend in Scottsdale
There’s nothing like a trip to a warm destination to get you ready for the summer months, especially if you live in Canada where we’re pretty much begging for the heat at this time of year. If you’re following me on Instagram (@thecityismineTO) then you know that I recently took a long overdue girls trip…
Travel: How To Pack a Carry-On

Travel: 24 Hours in Prince Edward County
I can’t believe that it took me this long to get out to Prince Edward County, otherwise known as PEC. I was always so envious of the photos I saw on social media and of course, of all the wine tasting. A few friends and I were talking about doing a quick weekend getaway so…
Travel: 72 Hours in New York, New York
Oh New York City. My love affair with the city that never sleeps continues. It seems as though I somehow find myself in New York at least once a year. And no matter how many times I go, I always feel like there is something new to explore, an interesting experience to be had and…
A Weekend in Medellin, Colombia
In my head I know that Winter only lasts a few months, but after the haze and flurry of Christmas it feels like a lifetime before we get to have sunny warm days again. If I can get my act together, I usually try and plan a little getaway between January and March so I…
24 Hours with Wayne Gretzky in Niagara-On-The-Lake
If you know me, you know I love my wine. I’ve graduated from the days of chugging 2L bottles of zinfandel to appreciating the sipping, smell and swirl of a really good glass. I was recently invited to a VIP experience at The Wayne Gretzky Winery and Distillery in Niagara-on-the-Lake and I couldn’t turn it…
