    Mazatlan, Mexico, best place I’ve ever lived.

    I really dislike when people ask me where I’m from. I’m not “from” anywhere. I was born in the UK, family immigrated to Canada when I was a child. I married an American and lived in Florida for a long time. Went back to Canada for a couple of years and was miserable. Came to Mexico in 2014.

    I’ve been learning Spanish since I arrived in Mexico and it’s pretty good. I’m more comfortable in Mexico than I ever was in Canada or the US. I’ve only been back to visit my family twice in 9 years and whenever I’m there I just want to be back in Mexico.
