Big, Big News + My Favorite Links from This Week
We're Moving! | Image via Etsy
Remember during my Year in Review post when I said that 2015 is going to be a big year??! Well, the first of a few big announcements is that Clint and I are moving to Toronto, Canada. Yup, we're leaving the 72 degree weather of San Diego for the land of celsius, maple syrup, and hockey. It's been a whirlwind here around the Art in the Find house because we found out just a couple of weeks' back and now we're putting things in boxes.
I've been trying to put together a post over the last week but folks, putting this move into words is just hard. I'm a bottle of excitement, anticipation, sentimental, bittersweet feelings, and sense that this move holds great things for us. For those of you who know me, you know that traveling is something a big part of what makes me me and I view leaving my comfort zone (i.e. the great state of California, where I've lived my whole life..) with a sense of adventure. I don't get nervous, I get excited. But I also get mushy and sentimental when I think of leaving all our little San Diego things behind. ("It's the last time I'll try this...It's the last time I'll eat that..." You get it.)
But I have a plan for moving to Toronto (hum, must be the A-type in me...) and it's already started to formulate. I've heard such great things about this big city we're headed for (read: 5.5 million people live there!), received lots of good tips, and started a notebook with tabs for neighborhoods, bloggers I hope to get to know, restaurants to try, etc...
I hope you'll follow me on our moving to Toronto adventures where I'll be sharing new style ideas, new creative ventures, and new styling opportunities. I plan to continue to blog and work on building my styling business. I'd love for you to share your experiences with a big move, advice if you know anything about Toronto, and great day & weekend trips that Clint I should take while we live there. Let's hear it, I'm all ears!!
