About Julia

This blog is about sharing stories. Most I collect from my personal life and journey but others are learned and loaned from others – when their story(ies) intersect my own. I have a tendency to add splashes of colour to these stories (big fish stories as my family likes to say) but I promise they’re not gross exaggerations, just a slight blurring of lines and dips into imaginative and creative license. My favourite stories have always felt like reality steeped in magic.

I’m a Canadian who currently lives in Asuncion, Paraguay with my (relatively) new husband. Previously, I worked and lived for two years in Dalian, China and for three years in Lahore, Pakistan.  Like most people, I am many things, including (but not limited to!) a teacher, writer, photographer, traveler and food eating/cooking enthusiast.

Thank you for stopping by and sharing in my story.
