A blog on the provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, with some bits of Newfoundland and other parts of Canada I've visited. Also, a place to find out about foods, and the music and culture. Also a guide for those who want to live and work in the Maritimes, and to all those who have left the region. When homesick, visit this blog

A bit of a Nova Scotian connection to this as Sierra Leone was established with Africans former slaves who choose to fight for the British during the American Revolution and the War of 1812. As well, the Jamica Maroons were also involved.
