The BestOf Both
Welcome Baby Nayla!
Nearly a week ago, we finally got to say hello to the newest addition to our family – Nayla. It honestly feels like yesterday that we found out we were going to have a baby. Here’s how the labour and delivery went from my (Romel) point of view: It all began the night of June …
Main Streats: Fish Counter

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).
