The 7 Sins

Envy:

Whose shoes would you like to walk in?

I have to say that I91裸聊视频檓 pretty happy walking in mine most of the time (hats off to John Fluevog for great style and amazingly comfortable shoes), but I91裸聊视频檇 love to have walked in Steve Nash91裸聊视频檚 shoes during his NBA run. I think Steve is the epitome of hard work and focus equalling success. In a world of brash big talkers, Steve moved faster, thought smarter and delivered with grace and style. What an amazing ambassador for Canada!

Gluttony:

What is the food you could eat over and over again?

I91裸聊视频檓 addicted to the Prawn Phad Thai from Ba91裸聊视频檃n Thai Wok & Bar. It91裸聊视频檚 amazing! Also pretzels91裸聊视频攔idiculous91裸聊视频攂ut they have to have just the right amount of salt.

Greed:

You91裸聊视频檙e given $1 million that you have to spend selfishly. What would you spend it on?

Pre-COVID-19, I wouldn91裸聊视频檛 hesitate to say world travel and enjoying new culinary experiences. Now, I think it would be having a sunny little getaway place on one of the Gulf Islands to share with family and friends91裸聊视频攁nd a faster boat to come and go!

Wrath:

Pet peeves?

Conceit, laziness and, the worst, entitlement.

Sloth:

Where would you spend a long time doing nothing?

I don91裸聊视频檛 like to sit still for very long, but I91裸聊视频檓 quite happy doing nothing on the beach at Sidney Spit, or up in Desolation Sound, provided 91裸聊视频渘othing91裸聊视频� includes some wine, fresh prawns or crab on the portable barbecue, and some good music and friends to share it with!

Pride:

What is the one thing you91裸聊视频檙e secretly proud of?

On the play side, I91裸聊视频檝e been lucky to have been able to compete and win at some top-level Hunter Jumper competitions in New York, DC, Kentucky, Pennsylvania and California. It91裸聊视频檚 a special partnership with the right horse, and a pretty incredible feeling to win under pressure. With real estate, I91裸聊视频檓 proud to be the highest-selling agent in Victoria and will be the first to reach the billion-dollar milestone in overall sales this year. I91裸聊视频檓 grateful to be able to do what I love, and lucky to live in such a special place in the world! Since COVID, I know I definitely appreciate it more than ever.

Lust:

What makes your heart beat faster?

Speed. Winning. Making the deal happen and calling the clients to tell them. Music, dancing, great food and wine, laughing so hard it hurts. And of course, being in love!
