Jean-Talon Market

On the Sunday morning of our trip to Montreal, we planned to make a quick stop at their famous outdoor market. What we thought would be a quick trip, turned into a full-fledged photo session as I could not get over how beautiful the produce was. Perhaps it was the natural light and gorgeous fall day, but I have never been so mesmerized by fruits and vegetables. Special thanks to Aaron for his immense patience during all of those moments when I suddenly need to document EVERYTHING.

Another installment of fall in Central Park.

I just can't help myself!

Montreal, Canada.

If you've got the itch for Europe but not quite enough time or money to make the trip, Montreal is a great alternative! Aaron and I made a last minute decision on a Thursday to leave the next night and head towards Montreal. It's a 6 hour drive from NYC and when you're on the road as much as we are you kind of forget how that's kind of far drive for a weekend. I was like, "Oh, only 6 hours? So easy!" Let's just say I wasn't singing the same tune when we arrived at 2:30AM. Regardless, we had such a fun weekend away and enjoyed exploring a new city together. Our favorite parts were walking around to see the colorful homes and trying some of the recommended restaurants and micro breweries. Neither of us were able to muster up the courage to try poutine, though. Maybe next time! Thanks for the great first visit, Canada!

Cologne, Germany.

I spent a week in Cologne this September, and although work travel is not as glamorous as it sounds it was a great excuse to explore a city I would have likely never visited on my own. One of the days when we had a quick break from the trade show, Tracy and I paid a visit to the Cologne Cathedral and adjacent city square. It's always so awe-inspiring to visit a place with so much history, and even more so to see a building that not only has withheld the test of time, but also war.


And last but not least, enjoy our smiling little faces :)

Is it too much to post about Central Park twice in a month? Too bad, I don't care! Feast your eyes on this beautiful city oasis:
