With a capacity of 9500 people it has been serving as a music venue for over 120 years. @shawndobes and I were excited to see @anjunadeep artists perform at this iconic venue. We were prepared to dance. But we were unprepared for how quickly the weather can change in this part of the world. Swipe right to be shocked. ❤️✈️ #redrocks #usa #den #dancing #anjunafamily #music #musicfestival #snow

Who would have thought that after thirty years of Who would have thought that after thirty years of meeting @bryna.corcoran and Matt in grade 9 we'd be back together celebrating our 44th birthdays bar hopping in my favourite neighbourhood in Toronto, Canada. Stay by @lisaloeb was at the top of the charts back in 1994 and we had no idea where our lives were headed. From our teenage years to our middle ages. Time has been kind to us. ❤️✈️ #happybirthday #toronto #yyz

Vancouver Island has so much to offer. Kristin and Vancouver Island has so much to offer. Kristin and Andre showed me all the great spots to eat, drink, and camp. Having local knowledge makes a trip that much more special when you're on the road.

When @shawndobes and I pulled into our camp site a When @shawndobes and I pulled into our camp site at The Gorge back in 2022 we were pleasantly surprised to meet our neighbours @cammeisterator and @champagnecapy. A year later Cam showed us what it was like to party like a local in Vegas. So it's only fitting we'd return the hospitality and show them how to party in Canada. Once again I'm reminded it's not where you are, but who you're with that matters most. ❤️✈️ #yul #montreal #alldayidream #canada #piknikelectronik #roadtrip #summervibes
