  There’s something about being isolated amidst th There’s something about being isolated amidst these tall, sky scraping mountains. And these aren’t even the tallest we’ve seen! But there’s this feeling I get when I come face-to-face with these immense rock structures: absolute awe and fearful admiration. It’s honestly one of the greatest emotions I’ve ever felt. Both a sense of humility and great love because I know who the artist is and I know for whom He placed these structures.  Have you ever felt this feeling before?  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

As the weather gets colder, I’m dreaming of the warmth from my favourite hot tub and a cozy dinner at @flowerandwolfcalgary. If only I could spend this chilly morning right here with this gorgeous view of downtown Calgary!  Also, Happy Thanksgiving to my American peeps! 🇺🇸🦃 Any weekend plans for you? Doing any Black Friday shopping too?  📍 @sheratoncalgary  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Though I have less planned for going around the city this week, I’ll be supporting some favourite local business from the comfort of my own home! With Black Friday coming up, what better time is there to be doing some early Christmas shopping while showing some love to Calgary’s best shops, spas, restaurants and more?!  Hop on over to visitcalgary.com to see what exclusive deals are happening in the YYC community! 🙌🏻 @tourismcalgary  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

  Have you grown a new appreciation for your own cit Have you grown a new appreciation for your own city this year?  Being able to see Calgary in a new and vibrant light from @sheratoncalgary has made me love this city more and more! On their Club Lounge patio, I was able to capture three drastically different views that reminded me why I love this city so much. The view of Chinatown sparked memories of the years I spent "trying" to learn Chinese all the while not knowing that the future love of my life was in the same building at the same time. The view of the downtown core reminded me of how blessed I have to still be fully employed at my job. And the view to the west invoked my everlasting love for the Rocky Mountains.  While the lounge remains closed during these times, #sheratoncalgary is graciously hosting outdoor wedding ceremonies on the patio! What a beautiful spot to say "I do" with your intimate group of loved ones!  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Though the entire way to Jasper was sadly completely overcast/snowing, we managed to find these calm puddles on Icefields Parkway from the melted snow! We tried to make the best of what we had and capture these crisp reflections 🤩  Our disappointment turned into glee and we became really happy that we could simply make the drive safely when the snowfall stopped!  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

  As most of you know, it was @jasonmengvisuals and     As most of you know, it was @jasonmengvisuals and I’s (apparently that’s grammatically correct, who knew! 🧐) 5-year dating anniversary last weekend! 😍 And we were blessed with the most romantic staycation getaway of our lives at @sheratoncalgary 🥰  They really went above and beyond to ensure that we had a marvellous stay with them. From the time we rolled in with our car, to when they walked us out and handed us our keys back, we were on cloud 9 with how they welcomed us!  I couldn’t have imagined a better 5-year anniversary for us than the one we got!  I can’t wait to be back for another stay in their all-suite hotel, a dip in their hot tub with their gorgeous city view, with a lovely meal by @chefcoleglendinning at @flowerandwolfcalgary ♥️  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

  What is one thing you did and loved this year that What is one thing you did and loved this year that you hadn’t done before?  Driving along Icefields Parkway was one of the most epic experiences of our year! We were stopping every few minutes after almost every turn because the views were constantly blowing our minds and we had to try our best to capture it! Yes, our fall vibes in Jasper were no longer orange leaves 🍁 and warm-ish weather (it was -12C when we took this photo 🥶) but saying an early hello to these gorgeous white mountains 🏔 there was nothing we could complain about!  So what is one thing you wouldn’t want taken back from this year?  // My favourite “Adventurer” crewneck right here is from @outoftheofficeco!  📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Though I often have things on my plate that I dread getting done, I try to look past them and think of what I’ll be able to enjoy stress-free once I accomplish my tasks. It also gives me a new appreciation for the things I thought I dreaded!  One thing that keeps me motivated to be productive is looking forward to being out in country. Out in the mountains, I feel most free!  So what inspires you to be your best throughout the week?  // Top from @countryliberty 🍁🇨🇦  📸 @jasonmengvisuals
