We’re having some weird weather in Montreal right now. On Christmas Eve, the wind blew and there was so much rain and mild temperatures that the snow melted and hasn’t come back yet.  I’m not complaining…I’m not a fan of cold weather. But when it comes to the winter break,…

I was so very happy to be chosen as a blogger for this campaign with Manulife and I was even more proud of why I was chosen. For the next week, I had been tweeting and sharing other people life advice but I could get to writing my own. I…
