About Me

Living My Truth

Hello! I'm Tania. After a life-changing journey on the 800 kilometer Camino de Santiago, I sold my townhouse, purged my belongings, quit my job, and then solo-traveled in South America for 4 months. Currently, I live nomadically in the Okanagan, B.C. and run my own web design and commercial photography business. I continue to live simply with less so I can live the life that I want. My inner and outer journey continues. Welcome to my blog!
