Changing the world, one home at a time

A BLOG FOR INDUSTRY TIPS, INSIGHTS, INNOVATIVE IDEAS, SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS, CREATIVE THINKING AND PERSONAL THOUGHTS TO HELP IMPROVE THE WAY WE DO CONSTRUCTION AND LIVE

Annie was born in 1982 in Quebec, Canada. As soon as she had the chance, she left home at 16 to discover the world and never really came back …

Mexico was the first country to take Annie out of her comfort zone in 1998, and the exploration never stopped! Married since 2003 to a wonderful husband and with 3 children in tow (2008, 2010, 2011), she is always looking for the next adventure.

Writing is a form of therapy when things go wrong… or when they are too good to be true! In 2016, the family sold everything and went on a sailboat for 2 years, without any previous experience, learning a whole new world and exploring different ways of thinking…

It was the beginning of the love for writing. Creative thinking is a lost art, and writing help to find our voice back. Annie published her first book in 2020, «Partir pour mieux revenir», available on Amazon. 

She has been in the construction industry for nearly 20 years and she is always on the lookout for ways to be more sustainable without compromising style. Having lived in different housing types, she has a deep connection with nature. Annie wants to incorporate all of the exterior elements in each project to feel the deep connection nature is providing us all around.
