If you haven’t seen the @lifeinCalgary Instagram account before, you should start following along now! Each week, a different person or company will takeover the IG account to share their views and experiences of Calgary through photos. It’s really fun to see how others experience our beautiful city and see how similar and different we can be all at the same time. In a city of 1.4 million people, there are a lot of things to connect us, but so much more we need to find and experience. Calgary is home to so many people of different cultures, backgrounds, ages, experiences and much more. I love seeing what others have to share on the account so I can learn something new every day.

This week, I will be taking over the @lifeinCalgary account to show what life in Calgary looks like for me! I’d love for you to follow along and see what I have to share with my fellow Calgarians.

Plus, I’ve partnered with a bunch of great local brands for some amazing prizes and contests! Each day will feature a new giveaway, so I don’t think you will want to miss out on this.

I’ll update the list of prizes each day as they get posted. Each contest will run for one week and then a winner will be randomly drawn. That’s 7 prizes for 7 winners! Good luck.
