Ok. I admit it. I loved Montreal.

Montrealers are known for their pride of their hometown. I think they deserve to be. Montreal is a great city and their ability to hold on to two cultures and languages for generations is something I greatly admire and even envy. Coming from NYC, I respect and understand cultural, hometown pride and Montrealers have much to be proud about, including all the awesome they have to offer those who visit. They are friendly and happy to share their city with you – to show it off, if you will – and I was more than happy to take it all in.

Montreal rocks and I can’t wait to go back and think you should visit as well.

In the meantime, here are some photos from my trip.

    LOVE Montreal. It is a place our family vacations at least once per year. I was there in November and every time I go, I love the city more. It is such a diverse and exciting city, one that anyone and any family can really enjoy. I really liked your photos they portrayed the beauty of the city. familyfoodtravel.blogspot.ca

    I'm so glad you went to Palais de Congres, one of my favourite places to shoot in Montreal.

So the thing about January is that it is crazy bus So the thing about January is that it is crazy busy for a small business owner. We’ve been settling in with new clients, working on new strategies with existing clients, doing final vetting for potential partnerships, organizing the launch of new campaigns, prepping for our taxes, GETTING HEALTH INSURANCE, (which, honestly? How are we all not up in arms and demanding socialize healthcare in this country??), getting kids prepped for their different sports, and clubs, and activities…the list goes on. But it is all super exciting and luckily, I have a pretty great team on my side. And as the frantic start of the new year calms down, I am excited to get back out there to share the Finger Lakes with you…and maybe even go on a exciting trip or two! Anyway, the month isn’t over yet and I would love to learn about new rituals to help me incorporate more zen into my days, because being “oh so crazy hectic busy” is not my vibe or path to glory. 🙅🏾‍♀️ What routines do you incorporate into your days for zen and mental balance? . . . #smallbusiness #entrepreneur #womeninbusiness #newyeargoals
Recently I discovered a waterfall along one of my Recently I discovered a waterfall along one of my very favorite trails, that I’ve walked on for years. It has been raining a lot, more than most years, and this fall was rushing. First time I heard it, even through the sound of the outlet on the other side. And it’s not massive, but it is cool. Mostly, it was a reminder. We might start feeling like we’ve seen it all where we are. Like there’s nothing new left to explore. And if we’re feeling stuck, like we can’t get away, or travel, it can get depressing. But there are moments, when we least expect it that we come across something we’ve never seen before. Something different, exciting, and beautiful. This start of the year has not allowed for much exploring, and definitely no travel, as I adjust to several things going on - new and equally exciting. But once I am a bit more settled, I will get back out there sharing some of my favorite things of this new life, in this wonderful place and all the unexpected surprises we find along the way. Travel for some of us is a little harder to do these days, but if we stay open to it, where we are might just surprise us still every now and then. . . . #fingerlakes #waterfalls #trails #myflx #outdoors #soflx #happynewyear

Even though it was just one night, our little roma Even though it was just one night, our little romantic retreat was enough to give me the boost I needed to end the year strong. Truly, @lakehousecdga is beautiful! (See my Instastories!) I am on my way back home, to a house full with our sons, our dogs, and responsibilities. I will do some last minute client work, while cooking a special end of year meal for my family, and feeling joy and gratitude for making it through this year, safely, healthy, and successfully with my family. What else can I ask for? I look forward to continuing to watch the ways in which you all made the most of this year and embrace the new year, and thank you for the kind and friendly messages and comments you all shower me with so often. May the new year shower you with that kindness in turn. You all are awesome. 🙌🏾 Happy New Year! . . . #newyear #gratitude #happylife #stayositive #staystrong
Celebrating another wonderful anniversary with my Celebrating another wonderful anniversary with my love, my best friend, and my partner in adventures of all kind. 18 years and I am still in awe of what a wonderful man I have been so fortunate to share my life with. There has truly never been anyone in my life who has loved me so unconditionally, so passionately, and so authentically. Through the ups and downs, the arguments, the making up, the parenting together, the taking chances on each other, all of it. It’s been such a gift of a life. Here’s to many, many more years, none of which will be enough to show you how deeply I love you, @travisjcain.
