Fall is my favourite time of the year for many reasons… the stifling heat of summer is over, the cool mornings and stunning foliage is everywhere and I get to choose my planner for 2013… I know a bit nutty but it is the truth. I look forward to every fall and wondering what type of planner or agenda I am going to choose. 
I have some great choices all thanks to the great people at Quo Vadis Canada a division of Quo Vadis International. The Canadian headquarters is located in my hometown, Montreal, QU. They recently sent me a ‘care’ package to show me some of the great options I have.
Whether you select the one-day-a-page option of the ABP1 (which I am trying for the first time in 2013), the compact and stylish Executive (in hot pink), the week-in-review of either the Hebdo Planning or Minister Prestige (last year’s favourite & this year’s re-fill), you have many options to choose from. If you want to read that review you can find it here. 
All the agendas come with either synthetic leather covers (yes, they look like real leather and are my preferred choice for cover), vinyl or a smooth ‘suede’ like cover. All of the models have a re-fill option (as seen above) so the initial investment is well worth the upgrade. They come in an array of stylish colours (coral, sapphire blue, aqua blue, lime green, hot pink). They are also available in more conservative colours for the discerning palette. 
Not to be outdone, there is a whole line of journals and notebooks that you can also find at Quo Vadis… these come in various sizes and textured/patterned covers. My daughter has her eye on the one I received to chronicle her year leading up to her trip to Ecuador for Free the Children/Me-to-We. To add to that, there are wonderful Stabilo Point 88 fine tip markers in a rainbow of colours that she can doodle with. A friend of mine, that fell in love with the pens, said she would use different colours for different tasks (i.e. blog posts assignments in green, personal posts in orange, daily tasks in blue).

Be sure to find me at the Professional Organizers in Canada National Conference in Vancouver, November 1-3, 2012 for more info on Quo Vadis.

I’m a planner-aholic! I love recording and planning my life! It keeps me organized and on time! I can’t wait to read other reviews
LOVE how sleek and stylish these look, as well as practical. I rely a LOT on planners and love to have everything organized. Being a mom and a blogger means there’s lots of stuff to keep track of 😉 lol
These look really nice and stylish. I am such an organized person I would need three agendas. One for my blog, one for hubs work and one for life in general.
Agendas and planners are a must have item for me. I especially love the one pictured with the blue cover.
I love love planners. I use my phone while out and then come home and write it all down. Ifs its not written its forgotten. These are great.
I love agendas and am always looking for the one that will best suit me. Thank you so much for showing all the different kinds! It will make it easier for me to decide which works best. -Lee
