bonjour

at the suggestion of friends and family, i've decided to blog about my new life in montreal and at cirque. having recently moved back to canada from our 4 year stint in australia, i am constantly discovering reasons i'm glad to be home (family) and remembering reasons why i was happy to leave in the first place (weather). i say "oh, it's not like that in australia" or "aussies do this a bit differently" on a daily basis (sometimes with disdain, sometimes with fondness). i become more aware of the similarities we have with the aussies and also the major differences. i shiver, i bundle up, i walk everywhere. i explore.

i'll do my best to blog regularly, but to be honest, i don't think my life is exciting enough to do it daily. that said, i've been amassing good blog fodder for the past 6 weeks already, so i may be able to update a bit more frequently at first.

people have been asking me what it's like being home after being away. in truth, i can't really answer that. because i don't know. see, i grew up in ontario and i am now living in quebec. home couldn't be further from where i am, even though it's only an hour away.

i hope you enjoy the blog!
