Une Canadienne Errante: I Heart Mongolia

Une Canadienne Errante

That's me! Just another wandering Canadian, moving around the globe, always looking for my next adventure and my next destination! I started this blog because, before I made the decision to move to Mongolia, I wanted to see what my new city would look like, but all I could find when I searched for images of Mongolia were landscape images. I had no clue what Ulaanbaatar looked like right up until the day I landed. This blog was born so maybe other people might have a better sense of what Ulaanbaatar looks like, if they want or need to know. I've been an expatriate in Ulaanbaatar since September, but before that, I lived in Korea, Kuwait, and France. I'm considering moving to Myanmar in June-- I'll keep you posted. I'm kind of a homebody and a loner, but I also like to walk around a lot, which provides plenty of opportunities for pictures and observations. Being a loner, I rarely share my observations with others, but I'll share some here. I never proofread and rarely edit, so sorry in advance for all the typoes that are likely to sneak their way into this blog.

I Heart Mongolia

I would expect to see this sticker on te backs of cars or pasted on my students' binders, but no! It's on garbage cans. It took me a couple of days to figure it out, but I finally realised that the sticker is pasted all over the garbage cans to try to encourage people to actually use them. I just wish there were a sticker for "pressing on your nose and blowing your snot out on the street and then wiping your nose with the back of your hand is unclean, spreads disease, and just plain gross-- i heart my fellow citizens", but there isn't.
