Writer

Cole is a writer from Canada, though he's rarely in one place long enough to prove it.

One foot planted firmly on each side of the Pacific — equally fluent in polite awkwardness and WeChat sticker etiquette.

He explores the subtle undercurrents that shape how people live, move, and interact across cities; the raw and beautiful of what makes a place what it is — the sticky-floored dive bars, questionable roadside street food carts, the places unlisted on maps.

C’est ça la vie, hein?
