Letter from the Editors
There is something magical about yet another year coming to an end. The promise of excitement and new beginnings resonates in the air as December turns to January. Akin to the ground being covered with fresh, white snow, every new year brings forth an empty slate waiting for us to fill it with adventures. In this issue, we asked our talented contributors to colour the blank pages of VEUX with their visions of this theme—and they more than delivered! We are so proud of the creativity and talent that we were able to celebrate in our magazine this month. The editors of VEUX Magazine wish you, our dear readers and contributors, the most wonderful holiday season and the happiest New Year! We hope that you take chances on new beginnings and soar to new heights in 2016!
