Born and raised - Vancouver

Lived for one year - Edmonton

I LOVE VANCOUVER!!! I LOVE VANCOUVER!!! I LOVE VANCOUVER!!!

I hear you loud and clear raymaga!

Born and raised: Cape Town, South Africa

Also lived in: London for about 3 years with backpacking stints thru Europe, Turkey, Greece, USA

Immigrated to: Canada

Landed in: Toronto, and did a fantastic adventure tour (canoeing, hiking etc)

Settled in: Vancouver, where I knew I wanted to settle down

Spent 10 OF THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE in Vancouver!!!

I LOVE this city, to the point where I feel like I have failed it for falling in love and moving away from it's warm heart.

I have the utmost respect for Canada and it's people.

Thanks to Canada, I have learnt patience, kindness, humility, and a gentle curiosity of those things that I many not understand at first. And that's because that's how I was treated when I first arrived. As an immigrant, I wasn't treated as an outsider, but as a person with a story unlike theirs, that they wanted to learn about so that they could understand who I was as a person. They were genuinely interested in my differences, not so that they could find fault, but so that they could educate themselves and broaden their understanding of the world. Through their inviting and compassionate nature, I learnt that understanding prevents judgment, and brings about compassion. What a difference it made in my life!

I'm getting a bit weepy thinking about it all, but I really do owe it to Canadians for gently molding me into the person my husband fell in love with.

I love you guys! Muah! :star::dance: You have the most beautiful culture and I feel honored to have been a part of it!

Hugs and appreciation

Ingi

I haven't seen you post in a long while Ingi, and what an incredible post!
