March 8th is International Women’s Day, and this year’s campaign encourages us to #BalanceForBetter, and think about how to forge a more gender-balanced world.

Today we’re kicking off the first of our “HOK Favourite Things” Holiday Giveaways! It’s not a coincidence I’m starting with a fabulous prize package to Ste. Anne’s Spa – one of my absolute favourite experiences of 2018.
