Santorini is truly a magical place! In the previous post, I showed you a poolside look, but spending time in Santorini is not only about pools & beaches, it’s also about exploring the cities and that requires a whole different wardrobe! ;) And I suggest you pack accordingly b/c most clothes in Santorini (or rather most things in general) are very expensive on the island! What I would do: Explore Fira & Oia: walk alongside the roads that lead to the edge of the island, where you can admire the white building, blue dome churches and the stunning views of…
There are certain cities in the world so charming that you keep on coming back, that is the case for me with Rome (as it was Paris for that matter). I could really imagine myself living here, surrounded by history, delicious food and people who take the time to enjoy life! Located in the heart of Italy, barely an hour train ride from other major cities – it’s the centre of the action! What I would do: I would grab a pizza and eat it while gazing at the Colosseum – far enough from the tourist cues, but close enough to…
Every working chix needs a vacation! If I lived in Florence, I would definitely be spending my weekends exploring Tuscany’s countryside and neighbouring cities! From wine tasting in the Chianti region to exploring the streets of Siena – there is no time to get bored, that’s for sure, ‘La dolce vita’! What I would do: I would rent a car on Friday evening right after work and drive down to San Gimignano, where I would have booked a b&b at a local farm which participates in agroturismo. On Saturday morning, I would head over to the village and explore its charming…
If I were a working woman living in Florence Italy, I’d feed myself with delicious food, amazing wine & beautiful art. Cliche much? #SorryNotSorry, I can seriously eat carbs all day, wash it down with wine and still feel light as a feather, what is the secret?!?! I must find out! This city is like no other I have ever seen, small streets filled with shops, restaurants, cafes and of course “gelaterias”! Let me take you through my Honeymoon in Florence! What to do: During my lunch break, I would grab a Caprese salad at El Divino & eat it…
Have you ever dreamt of working abroad in a big city such as New York, Barcelona, London or Paris? I always wanted to do it but the opportunity never presented itself! Yet, it’s still on my bucket list, so I decided to use my Honeymoon in Europe as a pretext to imagine how I’d spend my day if I was a business woman working at the Canadian Embassy near Champs-Élysées in Paris – my 1st Honeymoon stop! What I would do: I’d take my lunch break to stroll down Champs-Élysées, grab a coffee on a terrasse or check out the latest…
Bridal shower – a stress free event. Instead of telling you how my stomach is in knots right now, I rather tell you about my bridal shower :) b/c it’s an event a bride enjoys as she has no part in organizing it. Ahhh, THE BEST feeling! A month ago, my mom & my sister threw me and amazing Bridal Shower! It was an intimate gathering of family & friends at my mom’s place with tons of food, a crazy sweet table and lots of fun & games! The decor matched my wedding theme & the desserts were simply adorable:…
Mac & cheese lovers rejoice! I’m all about healthy eating, but every once in a while, working chix need some comfort food! Mac & cheese is one of my top 5 faves when I need a pick me up & I recently discovered a delicious place to visit: MacBar. Whether you’re a meat lover or a vegetarian, there is something for everyone – from mac & cheese grilled cheese to cheeseburger mac & cheese! Each dish is original & guaranteed finger licking good! Bon appetit! Smoked Bacon with Honey Mac & Cheese Cheeseburger Mac & Cheese Pesto, Tomato & Basil…
