One Thing I’ve Learned from Every Place I’ve Lived: Montréal, Québec (Ep. 6)
Somewhere in the beginning of 2024, I had the idea for this theme. I’ve lived in quite a few cities in the last 10 years, some of them dreams fulfilled and others happy accidents.

Reflections on Living Abroad — Again! 🌎
“Each time that I move, it feels like a bigger endeavor!” New year, new country 🇨🇦 Now that I’m living in Canada, it means that I’m officially living abroad again (although, I must admit that New York City sometimes felt like a whole different country of its own; it’s nothing like my hometown in the Midwest!).
