Escape From the City: Social Distancing Vacation

Escape From the City: Social Distancing Vacation

With everything that is going on in the world right now, it is becoming more and more difficult for me to stay creative and productive while being cooped up at home. Prior to the pandemic, we had planned on vacationing in Miami but of course with how things turned out, the trip was cancelled. Instead of falling into a pit of melancholy, we decided to use the social distancing to our advantage and completely remove ourselves from society for a week. We rented a small chalet in the middle of nowhere about 40 minutes from Quebec City and I eagerly packed bags to get out of Toronto.

My Tarot Deck Collection

My Tarot Deck Collection

This year, I have decided to take some time and put more emphasis on the unseen things in life. I joined a yoga studio, I make time for self-reflection and meditation, and I am giving Tarot readings a chance.

When I first started pulling cards and doing readings I was much younger and unfortunately did not give it the full attention the process deserved. Now that I am much, much (and one more much) older, I can finally get back to the cards.

I started the year with one old deck and am happy to say that I am up to four decks and a set of oracle cards that I use regularly. While these are not the only decks I would recommend, they are the ones that I am personally heavily drawn to. If you’re looking to get a deck for yourself, I hope this post helps inspire you to pick one up. It’s truly an amazing thing to add to your life!

Simple and Easy Morning Routine for Writers

Simple and Easy Morning Routine for Writers

No matter what I try, I am simply not a morning person. I watch YouTube videos about people who can wake up at 5am to make time for meditation and superfood smoothies and I am baffled by their commitment. I probably wouldn’t be able to wake up that early if my house was on fire.

With that in mind, I am always looking for a way to make my morning routine fast and easy but also special enough that I feel like I have a reason to wake up. Being an author, I find I need to get up on the right foot if I’m going to be productive during the day. There is nothing worse than a bad morning that ruins your creativity for the day!

My Favorite Place on Earth: Things To Do in St. Martin

My Favorite Place on Earth: Things To Do in St. Martin

We try to take a couple of vacations every year and one of the places we love going back to is St. Martin. We love it so much that we actually ended up getting a timeshare there so we can go back repeatedly. The entire island is small enough to go across in about an hour but there are innumerable great things to do while you’re there.

 If you’re planning a trip sometime soon, I highly recommend it! They had a bit of a set back with the hurricane last year but are on track to be fully rebuilt by next year. We’re already booking our tickets!

Top 10 Things to Do When You're in Dublin

I’ve recently had the pleasure of visiting Dublin, Ireland and though our trip was fairly short, we got the chance to see everything on our list. It was such a beautiful trip and I will most definitely be making sure to go back (this time without a list so I can just explore the city).

If you’re looking to pay Dublin a visit, I have put together a list of the best 10 things that I loved while being there. It’s a good combination of tourist attractions and general city highlights so I hope it helps you out on your trip!

TV SHOWS I'M CURRENTLY BINGING

TV SHOWS I'M CURRENTLY BINGING

Not sure about you guys but sometimes I just have a craving to stay in my pyjamas all day, eat nothing but junk food and watch ten hours of TV until my eyes can’t focus. If it wasn’t for Netflix, I might actually see daylight on the weekends! But who needs that when you have so many options of mind-blowing, binge-worthy shows at your fingertips? I sure don’t!

While this list is an ongoing collection, I thought it might be a good idea to share some of recent TV show obsessions. If you’re looking for something new to take your mind off life, the below are amazing!
