Montreal photo diary and life update
Hello from Montreal! As you may or may not know, I recently moved to Montreal with the love of my life and amongst the stresses of finding work and an apartment, we have been exploring this wonderful city. We have climbed the 'Mont Royal', relaxed on the banks of the Lachine Canal, walked a lot around Le Plateau and Mile End and I have been pretty snap happy along the way.

I wanted to share some of the photos I have taken so far from urban streets and beautiful houses to street art and, well, photos of us! Montreal is a super arty city and there is something to look at on almost every corner in Le Plateau. I love the industrial vibe to the buildings and I am so excited to shoot outfits photos here!

As for a life update, we have had no luck so far finding jobs but we are keeping our hopes up and persevering! We are hopefully on the cusp of getting an apartment - it has been relatively easy to find an apartment despite not having a job but we are just quite indecisive! It is also quite scary signing a year lease when we do not even know if we will find jobs here! To quote Lewis: "I hope this city is kind to us" and we feel more settled soon.

YouTube: What I'm Packing For Canada



Hello huns,

I apologise profusely that things have been a bit quite on the blog this week. It has been rather hectic because ya know, I am moving to Canada today! That's right - as this post goes live, I am on my way to Gatwick to catch my flight to Montreal. Of course I have been living abroad in Europe for the past few years but moving to Canada definitely feels like a bigger step! I am feeling all sorts of emotions right now from excitement, hope and pride to sadness, fear and everything else in between.

So I thought it was fitting to do a video to mark this special day, bringing together my two passions - fashion and travel - and show you what I am packing for Canada. I can tell you that it has been pretty bloody hard - especially as a fashion blogger - to pack my rather sizeable wardrobe down into just two suitcases. But I have managed it and I always have the excuse to buy even more clothes over in Montreal.

Enjoy and wish me luck!

10 Reasons to Move to Canada Right Now

10 reasons to move to Canada
Welcome to the second instalment of my lists that I hope will help me organise my thoughts and decide where to move to next. Back in March 2015, Lewis and I applied for working holiday visas for Canada but were put about 2,000th on the waiting list, so after not hearing anything by September last year, we decided to move here to Barcelona. You’ll never guess what. Two weeks after we arrived in Barcelona we got to the top of the waiting list and so we proceeded to sort out our paperwork for the visa. At the time we were extremely hyped but that has since died down seeing as we stayed in Barcelona. If we go to Canada, it would most likely be to Montreal so with that in mind, I give you my ten reasons to move to Canada right now.

1. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
2. I could have a stopover in Iceland on the way to Montreal, ticking off number one on my TRAVEL BUCKETLIST 2016.
3. I could casually take weekend trips the US of A – I’m imagining regular weekends down to NYC and Boston…
4. I could experience living in a completely different climate – come winter, bring on wool lined Dr Martens and the sassiest of faux fur coats.
5. I could speak French again on a daily basis – although hoping to not pick up a quebecois accent (no offence guys!).
6. I could experience a different culture – a mix of North American and Europe cultures sounds pretty special!
7. I could (hopefully) get a decent job because I speak the languages.
8. Rumour has it that Canadians are some of the friendliest people on Earth. 
9. Canada actually welcomes immigrants rather than finding any possible way to close its borders.
10. England, Europe and America seem on a path to being pretty fucked so why not try a country that has an outstanding reputation for quality of life?
