Something interesting I stumbled upon yesterday: The 10 Best Places to Live for Escaping World Conflict aka. the top ten most peaceful places on earth.
Guess what? Canada was #7 on the list! Reasons why were things like having only one bordering country (and that's a peaceful border) and because we have few enemies in the world. How lovely!

Other countries on the list:
The obvious: Switzerland and Iceland (hello, in Iceland they leave their babies in carriages outside restaurants while they go in for dinner, that's how safe it is).
The secluded: Tuvalu (no idea where it is, never heard of it, but it looks gorgeous) and Seychelles.
The somewhat surprising: Costa Rica - although having traveled there, I can vouch for how peaceful I felt there, I was just surprised because it borders some pretty dangerous places.
I'm proud to live in one of the most peaceful counties on earth - Happy (almost) Birthday Canada!

Ps. happy (almost) long weekend!
