Reflections on Everyday Life
Hello, I'm Derrick Prasad. Welcome to my personal corner of the internet. This is where I share thoughts on everyday life, simple hobbies, and the small moments that make up our days.
I live in Vancouver, BC, and spend most of my time enjoying quiet routines. When I'm not working, you'll find me tending to various hobbies—gardening, puzzles, collecting small things, and observing the world around me.
Thank you for visiting. Feel free to look around.
