This a refreshed and updated (2009, Jan. 3) descriptive page about me and my immediate family today.

As for this blog suffice to say that I write about myself, my family, the times and my views about some of the passing scene. As time goes on I realize that this blog is also a journal of my interests, amazing images, politics, the culture wars et al. My views are certainly valuable to me. But I can’t predict how others will consider them.

I have lived in at least five countries of this world and visited 15 some or more. I have lived in 4 Canadian provinces and hope that BC will be the last province that I will live in while I am still in Canada.

Yes, I may not end my days in Canada. There is a measureable possibility that I will end my days living in China with my wife.
Until Jan 13, 2009 I have lived in Vancouver with my wife, Emma (Wen Yuan) and her daughter Kelly (Yu Wen wen)

My wife is pretty, funny, devoted to me, and smart in ways that I am not.

I am older, dottier and as she says ‘knowleadgeable’

In the recent past I  tried to be an Independent Nikken Consultant ID # 840344100 and a sometime blackberry picker. I do look like a guy who says, ‘life is beautiful’ now don’t I?

As of mid January, I will be spending most of my time pursuing business interests in Dalian, China and Vancouver. If I manage to build enough income from those ventures with the likes of ABt 24/7 in Dalian, Emma and I may adopt living in Dalian and Vancouver.

UPDATE (2009/9/4)

I left Dalian June 3, 2009 and got to Vancouver on June 3. I returned with a 1% equity ownership of a Dalian based Internet company, Dalian Advanced Backoffice Technology Co Ltd. And a slight possibility of earning a 5% commission on the sale of some English Ed software.

Now life goes on.

=========================

Then there is her daughter (Yu Wenwen), who has studying music at the Berklee College of Music. She will soon become a Canadian citizen.

As the picture shows Kelly is a rock guitarist and now she has moved her gig to the Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. The one in Calif. is U of Cal at Berkeley.

I realize that I have been too focused on the last three years of my life here. As it turns out, I have three children from my first marriage. It would be nice to drop in here an orderly pic of all of them together, but like many families mine has lately found it difficult to get together in one place with me.

But here is a photo, of my daugher, Christine, her intended, Sujit, my older son’s “significant other”, Rosie, my older son, Stephane and finally my grand-daughter Dédé, taken during after an al fresco brunch hosted – in Aug/04 – by Christine, who generously tolerared my visits to DDO:

My daughter, Christine and her husband live in Halifax now. He is a lecturer at Dal U and she is finishing her BA at King’s College in HFX.

And now via Facebook I can add a photo of my two other grandchildren, David, Chloé and their mother Brigide Duchesne.

We are, like many Canadians, from different ethnic backgrounds and quite wide diversity of interests and preferences!
