I’m a 21 (almost 22) year old assistant curator at the Melfort and District Museum in Saskatchewan. I’m a brand new undergraduate, with a degree in Anthropology from the University of Saskatchewan.

I love sandwiches, coffee, books, and my dog. I grew up in Melfort, a small town of around 6,000 people and have recently moved back from school in Saskatoon.

I’m hoping to go on to grad studies in a healthcare-field, whether it’s occupational therapy, public health, or biomedical ethics.

I’m Matt (or according to most Starbucks cups, “Max”), but most people call me Kump. Born and raised right here in Vancouver, I design mobile apps to pay for my craft beer enthusiasm and food addiction. When not in Photoshop watching my computer crash, I’ll be playing guitar, watching hockey, or helping run Trade School Vancouver. I have never fired an arbalest.

I am a lifelong Edmontonian and 20-somesuch living the dream in a townhouse with a rad deck. I still say things like rad. On any given day you can find me either at my MMA (mixed martial arts) school, reading a book or six, or pretending my marathon training schedule is totally going to work. I work in marketing in the wonderful world of post-secondary.

 By day, I’m a 22-year-old Behavioural Science Technology graduate still looking for a spot in a field with too many options. By night, I’m a writer who hopes to get my books into readers’ hands within the year.

Born and raised in Eastern Ontario, I eventually wound up living in the southern part of the province, but during my week curating, I’ll be moving back to my small hometown for the first time in five years, back in close proximity to my family—a dad and uncle on one side, a mom, stepdad, five siblings, and multiple aunts, uncles, and cousins on the other!

Come along for the ride while I pack my life up in boxes and move 600 kilometres into an apartment above a small-town bookstore.

… And did I mention I’m taking part in a writing challenge and blogging challenge through all this? It should be fun, interesting at least… I can’t wait!!

After moving to the Greater Toronto Area as a toddler and later studying journalism in Montreal, I always wondered about Dubai, the sandy city I was born in. Now in my late 20s, I moved back two years ago and continue to discover new things about this place that’s always changing. Join me this week as I experience Dubai.
