My now husband followed me to London six months later. With an appreciation for adventure and natural landscapes, my favourite destination is Canada. Ziplining in Whistler from mountain to mountain certainly got the adrenaline coursing through my veins. With two beautiful children, the adventure continues with family holidays.
