So the husband and I arrived in California today,
(we're here for a work conference in Monterey)
and oh my goodness, I feel so refreshed already.
I forgot how deprived I've been in Montreal.... of sun, of greenery, of fresh sea air.
I could feel my winter blues disappear with every breath.
We arrived in San Francisco to cloudy skies, but it didn't matter. The scenery was lush, and beautiful.
In Monterey, we're staying at this adorable little hotel called the Spindrift Inn. It has the sweetest little balcony, and is well-stocked with my favourite Aveda body products.
Oh and I can't wait to sleep in that gigantic bed tonight!
So anyway, I just wanted to pop in and say a quick hello. I expect I'll be a bit busy with work over the next few days, but after that we're heading off on a road trip around the southwest, so undoubtedly I'll have tons of pictures to share with you!

I always ask myself the same thing when I visit CA. Monterey is such a gorgeous area - enjoy! Drive down to Big Sur if you have the chance. I'll be up in Marin for a retreat in a couple of weeks, can't wait :)

I've only been to So Cal, but I truly ask myself pretty much every day why I'm not living there yet.
