Culture Clash

The Clash A couple of weeks ago, my job afforded me the opportunity to sit at a table where a real-life debate fueled by ethnicity and our American history got uncomfortably amazing!

Toronto

Several weeks ago I had the pleasure of visiting the city of Toronto. It was my second time and I must say that this city has become one of my favorites! From the street-performers of Yonge-Dundas square to the eclectic style of Casa Loma, the city has a lot to offer and a number…

If you follow Marc For Short regularly (or know me personally), you’re probably aware that I frequent Canada, and was actually there for a bit. And whether you know me personally or not, you may be asking…why? Great question. Well, If you’re anything like my granny you’d assume it was…

She always had the feeling that it was very, very dangerous to live even one day. Virginia Woolf, Mrs Dalloway Hello, I’m an introvert.
