Danielle Libby was born and raised as a BC girl, went to Alberta for 10 years then made the move she always dreamed about – to Kelowna. Ever since she was little she knew Kelowna would one day be home.
Danielle lives life with her heart first; she cares deeply about people and has a big place in her heart for animals, especially dogs (she owns 3!). She loves to travel and has had an opportunity to go to some incredible places, Thailand still being her favourite so far. We talk about the volunteer work she's doing in Thailand, helping to rescue children from the horrific sex trade, that many are forced into.
