"Season one of the *[Vampire Diaries](http://www.cwtv.com/shows/the-vampire-diaries)* may be over (tear!), but we're still talking about that finale and all the amazing characters--including actress Sara Canning, who stopped by SELF yesterday to say hi.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nThe Newfoundland native (who speaks with no trace of a Canadian accent!) plays Jenna Sommers, the young aunt to two teenagers, on the show. The 23-year-old is close in age to the actors and actresses she works with, yet convincingly plays the parent figure every week.\\n\\n\\n\\nThe actress moved from Vancouver to Atlanta for the *Vampire Diaries*, but she'll be back up north this summer to promote *Black Field*, a period drarma she filmed last year about a Scottish emigre who moves to Canada in the 1800s.\\n\\n\\n\\nCanning--a former figure skater--told us she's a huge hot yoga fan, but usually works out outside of the gym. She recently climbed Grouse Mountain in Vancouver, and snowboards regularly. \\\"Fun, physical activities make me feel my best,\\\" she said. \\\"It's working out without thinking about it, and the benefits are a bonus!\\\"\\n\\n\\n\\nRe-watch the *Vampire Diaries* on the CW every Thursday this summer!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
