Who am I?
- My name is Vanessa, and I was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta (yes, I adore country music).
- My father hails from Grenada and my mother is Hungarian (What a unique mix, I know!)I was a Rotary exchange student after high school and lived in Ankara, Turkey for a year.
- I have a degree in Communications from the University of Calgary that included a group study program travelling through Spain studying the Spanish culture through food.
- I moved to Toronto for my dream job in 2017, allowing me to travel the world and lost it due to a pandemic you might have heard of.
- I had a fantastic little brother who constantly challenged me, questioned why my dating life consisted of foreigners with funny names and completed suicide in 2019.
- I have experienced great, passionate love, friendship and heartbreak, just as any of you.
- I am also as open as they come (total oversharer – thanks mom!), and I really do wear dresses every damn day (yes, that includes all winter long).
So why did I decide to start a blog?
My intention is quite simple; I hope that by sharing my experiences I can help even one person feel a little less alone and maybe laugh a little too.
Dresses every damn day
