    I would love to live somewhere like China, Vietnam or Cuba having spent some time in and experienced a bit of all three. Lovely countries with lovely people. That being said I feel like it’s my duty to hash it out in my home country of Canada. Unless stuff really goes to shit and I have to escape on asylum or something for my political views I want to do my best to try and contribute to improve things in my community.

    For much of my life I’ve dreamed of moving away to almost anywhere else from the frozen backwater I call home but as I’ve gotten older I’m more invested in trying to get stuck in there and be involved in shit and contributing to positive change.

      You just voiced all of my thoughts. I’m also Canadian and even though I’ve thought of leaving many times I know I can’t, not only because moving is expensive but I also believe it is my duty to stay.

      Until, like you said, I am forced to leave; whether that’s due to war or having my citizenship revoked and being deported I will remain and do my best to improve the lives of the people here.

      Also, the snow doesn’t bother me as much as others, and I honestly can’t imagine winter without it.
