My New Life In Canada [looking for readers and new blogs to read]

    Hi there !

    I'm Zhu - although I'm not Chinese but French - and I live in Canada - although not Québec but English Canada.

    Correr Es Mi Destino is a tale of moving to Canada, traveling the world, getting a job... well, "jobs", really. Teaching French in Canada to government workers shouldn't be that hard, should it? Well, you judge... I complain about it quite a lot. And don't get me started on the weather. But I love Canada!

    I've just move my blog from Blogger to self-hosted WordPress, after a year of blogging. So far so good...

    So, I'd love if you could:

    1) Give me some feedback about the blog: I think I fixed all the bugs (moving to WP was a bit er... challenging)

    2) Introduce me to your blog if you think I'd like it. I read a lot of blogs everyday and I'm always looking for new stuffs to read. It's a win-win: I comment, I add to my feeds and I read daily hundreds of blogs... let's share our worlds!

    Please, don't link me to purely ad-driven blogs... mine is 100% ad-free so you guess I won't be a big fan !

    So...? ;)

    no it is quite good but your wordpress shows an error on all "pages"

    i like the theme it is original , only thing is your text formatting could be more appealing to read maybe...

    Nanexo, what do you mean by text formatting ? Any example ? I'd love to imporve !

    Thanks all for your feedback !

    Great content in your blog... good read... I am an Aboriginal living out West of Canada. Not as cold as Ottawa... Brrrrrrrr!

    My Review

    Header
    To large... it uses a lot of space that could be used for a good content area.

    Images on the left side
    I love the images on the left side.... (my thought) it would look cool if you used one of these images as your site background

    Excellent site overall.
