Canadian Down Under

Why I will always be a foreigner...

To truly be Australian, you need to pronounce the word 'debut' as: day-boo.

Just. Can't. Do it.

  • Dear Laura,
    As a Canadian living in Australia outside Melbourne, I'm curious why you chose to venture 'Down Under.' What do you you tell people when they ask you if you're here for good? Share stories of some of your most memorable Aussie moments. Like you, I'm slowly adjusting to local versions of the 'English language.' I have to stretch my 'Canadian ears' at times!
