About this blog

Welcome to Postcards from Amanda! Thanks for visiting. This blog chronicles my travels in various countries and continents, mainly Canada, the U.S., Chile and Argentina. It also provides a virtual snapshot of my thoughts about life and culture in general.

A little about me

I am an American, originally from the upper midwest, and moved to Canada about 10 years ago.

I am now a Canada-based writer, translator and editor. Please learn more about my professional work here.

As a high school graduation gift, my middle school English teacher gave me Dr. Seuss’ “Oh the Places You’ll Go.” What a prophetic gift that turned out to be.

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!

    I love your blog and I also have a well cherished and received copy of “oh, the places you’ll go!” I love chile and Argentina. Both beautiful countries with fascinating culture. I look forward to reading more of your posts!

  6. Congratulations! Love what you’re doing, and thank you for sharing it with the world. I hope to travel through Central America someday, any chance you’ll be visiting there? If you’re going to Peru, I am somewhat acquainted with that country if you need a clue ’bout something. Buena Suerte!

  7. I’ll come too, if you don’t mind. To my great sorrow, or shame (or both) I never made it to South America, despite moving to Canada and living there for ten years! But that’s another story … Chile here I come (with you, vicariously, of course).
