Irene's Story
Life
I have made the move to Metchosin, about half an hour outside of Victoria. I am an Aromatherpist Garry is still in business in Fort McMurray after 25 years and we will be celebrating our 32 anniversary this year! Yikes, time has flown by. We have two children, a daughter 26who will be getting married next year, and a son 24. They are both great kids and our life is great.

Workplace
I really didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up until I was 40. In the 90's I had a small shop in Fort McMurray, selling clothes, ethnic giftware , jewellery, pottery and aromatherapy. I was amazed at what was being sold as so called "Aromatherapy" and decided I wanted to study it more in depth. As a true Taurus, I love sensual things and the essential oils were something I could truly relate to. I now use aromatherapy in my work as a massage practitioner and in my every day life for a multitude of uses.
