Welcome to Diary of a Canadian: A Love Letter to the True North

There’s a unique kind of magic that comes with living in Canada. From the crisp mountain air in Alberta to the gentle waves lapping Prince Edward Island’s shores, this country isn’t just a place — it’s a feeling. And that feeling? It’s exactly what this blog is all about.

Diary of a Canadian was born from a simple idea: to capture everyday moments, big adventures, hidden gems, and the quirks that make Canada, well… Canada.

Whether you’re a fellow Canadian or just someone who’s fallen in love with the maple leaf, I’m so glad you’re here.

What to Expect

✔️ Honest takes on life in Canada
✔️ Travel tips and weekend getaways
✔️ Canadian food (because poutine and Nanaimo bars deserve the spotlight)
✔️ The charm of small towns and the buzz of big cities
✔️ Everyday stories — from snowstorms to small kindnesses

Why Start This Blog?

Because Canada isn’t just defined by landmarks – it’s defined by its people, stories, landscapes, and heart. I wanted a place to document it all. Think of this as a cozy, digital cabin you can always come back to.

If you’ve ever:
🌲 Hiked through a national park and felt overwhelmed by its beauty
🍁 Been moved by a random act of kindness in your community
🥶 Endured a Canadian winter and lived to tell the tale
🧡 Or simply love this country deeply…

Then you’re already part of the Diary of a Canadian community.

Thanks for stopping by – I can’t wait to take this journey with you.
Let’s celebrate all things Canadian, one post at a time. 🇨🇦

With maple-sweet gratitude,
DOAC
