I’m Jordana, pleased to meet you! Hopefully you came to this section to learn about me and not to discover to whom you can address your hate mail. Hopefully. By trade, I have been a compassionate employment and social justice lawyer, empathetic career counsellor and dedicated human resources professional at a major financial institution. More importantly, I am a wife, daughter and sister. I am passionate about a lot of things, including self-improvement, self-care, career and financial health and all things travel. If there is a DIY (do-it-yourself) project out there, it will find me – including creating this blog and taking all the photos you see posted! This year has been an adventure as my wife, Sarah, and I have made a huge decision to take on a grown-up gap year because, let’s face it, adulting is hard and that global pandemic we just went through didn’t make it any easier, right? We saved up our dolla dolla bills and decided to flee Toronto to spend time abroad. We currently live in the south of Italy because, in our view, the best way to create your own dolce vita is in sunny, wine-soaked, cheese-laden Italia. I hope you enjoy my ramblings, get inspired to create your own dolce vita and I look forward to hearing from you.
