City Living Boston

Meet Leah

I grew up in a small Canadian university town, have lived in the country outside of NYC but now I consider myself a city dweller. I love the city life, especially in Boston. Living in Boston (technically Cambridge) includes going out in the city and escaping to the mountains, sea or country for a day trip.

 

Welcome City Living Boston.  I’m Leah, a city dweller whose goal is to take advantage of all that the city has to offer. I blog and post on social media to encourage you to do the same.  Our city has so many talented people from chefs and musicians to artists and dancers. We have great minds running workshops, giving talks, and leading experiences. You can spend a pretty penny or attend something for free depending on your budget and needs.

Pointing out regional hot spots and directing you to the city’s best bites is my way of paying it forward.  I share moments our family has experienced in the hopes that you will get to experience them too. I love heading into Boston for a show,  going out with friends or solo for a delectable bite to eat, trying a new cocktail, or just wandering the streets and noticing things.  I share everything from recipes and ingredient finds to where to get a cocktail in Boston’s theatre district tonight (If you message me on Instagram I will usually reply within an hour to your request).  As a mom of 2, I am also always happy to share my two cents about parenting in the city from cradle to college.

Living city life to its fullest is my goal.  City living is all about having a fun and functional home, daily cooking at home, dining out and exploring the restaurants of Cambridge & Boston (or whichever city we visit next!)

From a long standing hole in the wall eatery to the newest hot spot, I will let you know where to go and what for. I’m Canadian by birth but a Boston girl now. I spent my childhood in Ontario, a couple of my school girl years in France then moved to NY for high school.  My university years were in Montreal with a year in pub country in the North of England. Cambridge, MA is where we started our family and has been home since 1996.

For real time updates and interactions, find me on Instagram. I store my favorite recipes and latest project ideas on my Pinterest boards and I can also be found on Facebook.

If you are a brand looking to collaborate, discuss a partnership, or have an event you would like coverage for, I’d love to chat. You can reach me at: foodiewrites@gmail.com
