I live in Quebec, the french province of Canada where there is still endless forests... and winters. We eat "pâté chinois" and "tourtière", and are serious hockey fans.
Good think, it is a little bit more hot these days (spring time) !

Regards,
Zan

I am from a country where in the Summer the sun is up at midnight.
In winter people make a hole in the ice to take a bath and if you travel from south to north it's the same distance as if I would have gone down to Italy.
This weekend I am on an isolated small island in the archipelago 1,5 h boat ride outside the capital but still have perfect 3G connection.

I'm from the United States, but originally from Thailand. I came to this country a long time ago, though!

A native born Oregonian who will retire in two to five years in Montana, since Oregon is now the northern most county in California.

A dedicated Martini rifle collector with no interest in edged weapons at all. Working a special assignment for a couple of years in South Africa before retiring. Simply meeting friends requests for "Zulu Spears". Found a Zulu hunting spear, East African small game spear and Zande Spear. All of which are far to good for my friends and I will keep for myself. I will go to the Curio shop and get spears for my friends.

Just located two Maasi Spears. I should get them...

Did I mention I have no interest in edged weapons...

First time I see this thread. Nice.
I am an atheist from the holy city of Jerusalem (or Al Quds, if you prefer).
My family came from Hungary and I am married to a Dutch woman. I lived in the Netherlands for many years and speak the language, so I consider it my second home.

Filipino living in Manila, Philippines, 33.
Engaged in studying my country's traditional blades for academic and martial purposes.
It's ironic that most of my country's most prized and well-preserved traditional blades are in foreign shores. I hope that changes someday.

I am from the capital of Russia, Moscow.
The area of my hobbies is the arms of China and Vietnam. I also became interested in subjects from mainland Southeast Asia.
Sometimes I drink vodka and I have a "ushanka" hat (but made in Finland ).

Hi,
Caledonia born and bred although Ulster Irish (County Antrim) on my mothers side and Norwegian on my fathers side. It's refreshingly heartening to see so many from divergent backgrounds get on together in relative harmony
My Regards,
Norman.
