1 year in Canada

Dec 07, 2009 09:40

Yeah, 1 year is gone… and it’s time for this post. So many things have happened during this period and I want to sum up all of them.
First it was adapt myself to this new environment…. I used to leave abroad but it’s not the Europe at all.

This year was full of different activities. I was meeting new people, experience new things, making friends, welcomes and farewells, happiness and sadness…

Work is that’s why I’m still here. It took me a while (I think 6 month for sure) to adjust myself. It wasn’t that many challenges and my colleagues were helping me any time I asked them. I just didn’t feel myself in the right shoes. There is one thing you have to remember to make things done :) Thee is no rush.

Travelling is a big part of me and my life. I can’t live without it. I visited Vancouver, Calgary, Jasper, Banff (Rocky Mountains), Montreal. And also discovering some small towns outside of the city and abandon places. And I hope it’s not the end. At least the next destination is Cuba (it just for vacation).
I first experienced camping. However it’s not the same camping as we used to imagine. Tents and fire, guitar and beer…funny moments. It’s all the same. In Canada you can not camping wherever you want. There are so many national parks and wild life. That’s why there is a special places with the camp sites which means with lots of restriction and rules. Due to this you always have to deal with a police because you’re young and can’t stay quite after 11 pm :)

Relationships. This part is going to be short because I still have to work on it :) It used to be a good time and happy months which I will remember. But there is not a happy end yet.

I tried snowboarding. I was full of bruises and my body soared but it was amazing. I’m still going to continue it this winter. It so much fun.

Celebrating my 25th Bday. It was the first time when I celebrated a birthday being out of home. Isn’t it strange :) I had totally new friends at my Bday party but my old good friends were also with me even for a distance. I’m happy that I have you in my life. You made my day and not only one.
Now I’m doing more sports as ever before. Besides going to a gym I started skating and dancing. Actually I’m continuing the last one because I was dancing since I was 6 years old. And it seems it’s going pretty good. I really enjoying dancing especially the Latin-American dances. Actually who doesn’t…
I decide to take a French course. I’m not that good in it as in dancing but I’m doing my best.

Almost all of my dreams came true. But there is still a room for new ones.
If you ask me what do I like here the most I definitely can say people. Canadians are very friendly and easy-going. I do really like Europe with all its history but I could not meet as many nice people as I did here.
