In the wake of the election result you’re probably feeling one of two ways about life in the U.S. I say think long-term and beyond home borders. Whatever your world view, a Plan B always makes sense. But that doesn’t mean turning your back on the U.S. I certainly haven’t. Heck, I own a home [...]
This week, a page turned in the U.S. history books… Whether you think it went forward, backward, want to frame it, or throw it in the fire, doesn’t really matter. It is what it is.
