My path 

 Canada
British Columbia

I am currently living in Canada since June 2006

My life & projects in this location:

I'm all sorts of things rolled into one. I work full time during the day, go to school part time in the evening, I'm also trying to maintain a food and cooking blog at the same time along with my attempts to have fun all the time.

What I like about this destination:

I like Canada for it's free health care, it's rich, open and diverse culture and its beautiful and varied landscape. I also like the abundance of international ingredients that are available at the groceries, farmer's market and delis because it allows me to create whatever my culinary imagination can come up with.

What I don't like about this destination:

Cold....brrrrr... not to mention the bleak grayness during the winter months.

What I liked about this destination:

It's my home and there really truly is nothing like it.

There are a lot of things I don't like about it, but hey, the world isn't perfect either.
