Well, since you’re feeling nosy…<\/h3>\n

\"69\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I was born in Sydney, Nova Scotia on May 8th, 1975. Known as Tammy to my family and friends, my full name is Tammy Breigh Canavan (with a – Soldaat attached as of May 12, 2000). Yup, that’s right.. Breigh actually is my name. It’s said Bree-ah and is gaelic for beautiful.. no it’s not Bray or Bree, even though I’m sure you will all call me one or the other anyway.<\/p>\n

I grew up in a small town called North Sydney (the red dot on the map!), where I had the most amazing childhood. I had tons of friends, parents who made me feel safe and loved. Pretty much everything you could imagine the perfect childhood to be. I’ve never liked school, nor have I ever done well in it. Things have to truly interest me for me to learn about them, otherwise things pass my eyes and ears without ever finding their way in.<\/p>\n

I lived in North Sydney until I was 21 when I left for Prince Edward Island. I lived there for approximately a year before getting the itch to move again and leaving for Toronto. I loved Toronto.. if I had to choose any place to live right now it would be there. I left Toronto in 1999 when I moved to the Netherlands to be with my husband<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now we live in Rotterdam, a city that took some getting used to but I have really grown to appreciate over the years. \u00a0It’s such a modern, lively city with so much to do. \u00a0The public transit is fantastic and I have really made some great friends in the time I’ve been living here.<\/p>\n

The rest is just random facts, so I’ll just throw them out there that way…<\/p>\n
