WHEN YOU CAN TRAVEL AGAIN, WHERE WILL BE YOUR FIRST DESTINATION?

I will definitely be going to see family first. My fiancé’s family lives in Canada and we haven’t seen them in so long; almost a year. So going to Toronto will be our first trip! My brother also had his third little girl that we haven’t met yet, so we also want to go to San Diego where they live. After that, I want to travel somewhere tropical for a vacation after being stuck in the house for so long. I think we all deserve a vacation at this point!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE ISLAND OR BEACH HOTEL?

The Dalmar hotel in Fort Lauderdale is pretty special. It has an amazing view of the city, a block away from the beach, and a rooftop pool to die for. It has everything you could ever want in a hotel! My favourite island hotel is hands down Jade Mountain Beach resort. It’s in St. Lucia and has the most incredible views of the Piton mountains. The last time we were there we had the place all to ourselves, and the views from the pool overlooking the ocean and the Pitons is a memory that I will never forget.
