The quest for love continues for The Bachelor's Serena Pitt, a contestant from Ontario.

The 23-year-old Toronto publicist is one of many women who came on the show looking to compete for Matt James' heart in the 25th season of The Bachelor

But when she's not going on wild dates and shaking up rose ceremonies, Pitt actually leads a super relatable life in Ontario, and you probably have a few things in common.

She's been to the popular attractions

There are some big attractions every Ontarian needs to visit at least once, and Pitt has checked several off the list. One quick scroll through her Instagram reveals that she's been to places like Niagara Falls, the Toronto Christmas Market, and the Elora Gorge.

She's a major foodie

Ontarians live for their next delicious meal, and Pitt is no different. In Toronto, there are so many places to indulge in a variety of diverse dishes. On her Bachelor Nation bio, she says, "If they don’t let me taste their food, I don’t know if the relationship could survive." She also expertly explained how a charcuterie board works during her one-on-one date with Matt.

She's got some school spirit

School spirit is a big thing in Ontario, and Pitt shows some pride for her alma mater Wilfrid Laurier. She earned her B.A. at the university in 2019 and has several Instagram posts to show some spirit. She also attended Unionville High School according to Laurier Golden Hawks. 

She's a Raptors fan

Being a Raptors fan is almost a requirement for every Ontarian, especially for those living in Toronto. Pitt's Bachelor Nation bio reveals she's "looking to find a man who will enjoy spending quality time with her — whether they are having beers at a low-key bar or sitting courtside at a Toronto Raptors’ game."

She enjoys the outdoors

Whether it's hockey or hiking the Bruce Trail, Ontarians are always ready to get outside and explore the beautiful province. Judging from Pitt's Instagram, she spends a lot of time outdoors soaking up sunsets or relaxing on a boat. She further proved her outdoorsy-ness by riding a horse like a pro and picnicking amongst some sheep on a date with Matt.

She can totally rock plaid

If you live in Ontario, chances are you have at least one plaid garment in your wardrobe. Pitt has rocked the lumberjack look on Instagram and The Bachelor, and the results are rose-worthy.
