My expat journey
British Columbia, Canada
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.
I like Canada for it's free health care, it's rich, open and diverse culture and its beautiful and varied landscape.

Manila, Philippines

I was a student my whole life I guess.
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.
