ME! I’m so excited to have been asked to take you on a tour of the West End this week! It will be a glimpse into Mina Mercury‘s fabulous life! It will include photos from a few of her favourite restaurants, shops and sights around the beautiful West End of Vancouver, that she is so lucky to call home.
