Missed this thread, now homesick...poop. YvanF, how you liking Halifornia?
Loving it man! Absolutely love it.
The scenery is just gorgeous, the food amazing, the people incredibly friendly, great pubs and restaurants. Every weekend I go out and abouts and explore a different part of the area. Spent lots of time hiking in Cape Breton, Cape Chignecto and Bay of Fundy, doing canoe portage trips in Kejimkujik. The city is JAM pack full of festivals in the summer. So much to do and see.
Been stuffing my face with fresh seafood as much as possible. To make life even better, Halifax has seen one of its best summers to date. I think it only rained like a hand full of times. Halifornia is right!
The only down side is my one year contract ends next July(2013), so we shall see what happens after that. If I can get something more permanent, might look into buying out here. If not Ill have to move back to Alberta.
