When this Gee-Gee travels, only the finest greet him… and by finest I mean the finest cut out.

To get started, I’ll clarify something that often gets confused—I am not an exchange student. Rather, I have put my degree at the University of Ottawa on sabbatical. I am instead starting a whole new degree for three years. Although this may seem like an odd move, I have several reasons for packing my bags and flying off to England.
