I've lived on a mixed farm, in a small city, in two large, cosmopolitan cities, and in in two remove northern communities. I like living here in North Vancouver the best of all.

I like knowing the mountains are a short drive to the north, and the Pacific Ocean is a 14 minute walk to the south. I like hiking in rain forests, kayaking in one of North America's most beautiful fiords and eating and shopping in the vast array of ethnic restaurants and shops that we have here.

Oops... sorry, it sounds like I'm auditioning for a job with Tourism Vancouver. Not true. I simply love where I live.

I work from home as a self-employed writer and Internet marketer. I am owned by two large ragdoll cats. One is 21 years old and every day's a gift.
