🎙️ I Love Kelowna
The art of transforming spaces into something beautiful with Gabriela Zaga
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Gabriela Zaga from Zaga Home Decor and Staging immigrated from Mexico to Canada in the 1980s. First she lived in Montreal, where she learned English and then Spanish. When she arrived in Kelowna almost 2 years ago she immediately felt "this is home" and decided to move here with her sons. We talk about how the country of Mexico has changed so dramatically over the years, especially recently. We also go in depth about Gabriela's love of design and the amazing work she is doing to help beautify and stage properties throughout the Okanagan.

SHOW NOTES AND LINKS
I've decided to be as concise as possible with the show notes. All I am going to do from now on is post a brief summary, identify the guest, and any relevant links. By this winter we plan to have over 40 episodes published… so I want to make it easier for you to choose which ones to listen to first.
