So… a lot has changed since we last updated the blog. We kinda sorta got married! It all happened on our sixth anniversary, January 3, 2015, in Vancouver, to be exact. We like to joke around that it was a destination wedding… for the both of us! Romel flew in on the 18th of December, …
Hello friends! It’s been WAY too long since we updated this blog. This year has been filled with so many surprises. Romel and I got engaged, Romel moved to San Francisco, I moved to Toronto, and now, we’re getting married in 2 months … How did we get here? Romel and I really wanted to …
On Saturday afternoon, I invited a few of my best girl friends over for some afternoon tea. I’ve been meaning to ask these girls a special question for quite a while and wanted to do so in a creative way. Finally, the idea came to me that I should throw a tea party! For the past week, …

The Best of Both started in 2012 as a blog of a boy and a girl with a wide variety of interests, from fashion and video games to biochemistry and computer science. The blog was a medium to challenge each other to be creative, share their ideas + perspectives, and capture their adventures.
A couple of years later, life happened – they got engaged, he moved to San Francisco, she moved to Toronto, and they got married in Vancouver somewhere in between. After months of traveling back + forth, he moved to Toronto, where she stayed up late listening to Counterstrike strats and he unwillingly participated in Saturday morning cleaning. Fast forward, they had many more adventures, got a puppy named Simcoe (the name of the street of their Toronto home), and shipped all of their things across the country (i.e. his board games + collectibles, her textbooks + shoes).
