Welcome To Canadian Blog House!

I’m Sandy, proud Canadian, incurable big kid, luckiest person on earth (at least I think so), and one of the bloggers behind this Canadian Lifestyle, Travel & Experience blog.

I have called the Nation’s Capital my home for the last 7 years. I love my adopted city of Ottawa, and you will find many articles here covering the great things happening in and around Ottawa.

Since we launched Canadian Blog House in March 2013, we have been fortunate to be asked to become involved in other exciting online projects. Some of the other “hats” I wear include:

Blog Contributor at Outaouais Tourism Blog 

  • Celebrate Canada 150 At Winterlude’s Snowflake Kingdom

Ottawa Insider Blog Contributor at Ottawa Tourism

  • An Action-Packed Weekend at Canada’s First-Ever Red Bull GRC Series

  • First-Ever All-Star Baseball Game Hits a Home Run with Ottawa Baseball Fans

  • Culinary Scene Sizzles At Canada’s Table

Fun Facts About Me

      • I am an Acrophobe, yet I’ve walked the Grand Canyon Skywalk, been to the top of Toronto’s CN Tower, Parasailed in the Gulf of Mexico, flown over Parliament Hill in a vintage Biplane, and dined 150 feet in the air over Ottawa.
      • I’m an Arachnophobe, yet I’ve held a tarantula in my hand.
      • I was so shy in kindergarten, I was at risk of not passing into grade 1 (now you can’t shut me up!).
      • I am a huge animal lover. I have owned some pretty “interesting” animals in my life, including a turtle, gerbils, mice, rats, a chinchilla, and a hedgehog. Today I am “mom” to 2 miniature poodles, Bella & Guinness, and a snake named Hunter.
      • I once was a big “contester”. I’ve won many amazing prizes, but my favourite is the trip I won to the Dominican Republic.
      • I’m still good friends (35+ years later) with 5 of my childhood girlfriends.
      • I’ve had many nicknames in my life, but the two I’ve had the longest are from my aunt who calls me “Sam” and my uncle who called me “George”.
      • I have been collecting pin-back buttons since I was 12. I have over 1,000 in my collection.
      • I have a “trivial mind”. I remember a lot of “useless” information. Like, if you went to grade school with me – I probably remember your name.
      • I have  82 VIPs/famous people following me on Twitter. Who? Shhhh. It’s a secret!
