WOMAN.ca Spends 10 Super-Charged Hours in Vancouver

After catch-up chatter and holiday hugs were exchanged, I was back on track and zipping to my next destination  - Mainland Street in Yaletown. 

Arriving within ten minutes by taxi, my shopping radar picked up action. I quickly popped into super cool Rowan Sky (1026 Mainland) and Fine Finds (1014 Mainland) for a bit of boutique chic before it was time to sit and delight in some sushi at Bistro Sakana (1123 Mainland) I was so ready for mouth-watering maki rolls and pleased their beef teriyaki also hit the spot. 

At about a quarter to nine it was time to head to the Stadium transit stop, transfer to the Canada Line and get back to the airport. No gold medals in around my neck, but I definitely felt like I'd won the race!

About the author:

When Malcolm Gladwell talks about “connectors,” he’s talking about Sara Graham. This gal-about-town made her mark spending five years in (and out) of publishing as Editor-in-Chief of Canada’s top teen magazines Vervegirl and FUEL. During the out part she created, designed and managed all aspects of Sister Underwear – a collection that was not only embraced by the Canadian fashion network of buyers, media and the public, but enjoyed repeat orders from boutiques located in the U.S. Although no longer deep in the publishing or fashion trenches, Sara remains curious and connected via her insatiable appetite for culture and travel. Sara also continues to produce fashion shoots through Project, her brand management company.
