Hi there Ekua!

FYI, your blog on HI Vancover Downtown along with mine and hundreds of others from Travbuddy has been plagiarized by a Vietnamese site called Batin Travel Blog...and its a weird and unprofessional blog!
I’ve informed Eric of TB who in turn has informed google. He suggests that we inform google too…I’ve posted this topic on the TB chatroom. Maybe you could see Eric’s suggestions and add in your comments too.

To see your site go to the link below:
