Canada Here I Come!

by Amanda on July 22, 2009

I‘m going a little stir crazy because I’m cooped up inside and apparently it’s 25 degrees outside. It’s the dead of winter, what on earth is going on?! Vancouver you better have pretty mountains and good things for me to take photos of!

Can you find my Moosey friend?

Oh yeah, I’m a Canadian resident now!

I’m an immigrant! It’s such a weird thing to think about. I need to process it a little more and then I am sure I will come back here with my fabulous thoughts on the matter. Should we be celebrating? I think the real Canadian needs to take me out to dinner or something. If he’s the real Canadian now, I guess that makes me ‘the fake Canadian‘?

Come back later tonight/early tomorrow(Nth Hemispherians) for my part 2 follow up to How I Make Dreamy, Film Like Photos.

    I felt the same when I got my UK visa! It’s quite surreal isn’t it?

    Vancouver is one of the most photogenic cities I’ve ever been to, you won’t be short of inspiration there.

    Thanks girls. :)

    Catherine, we will move in October, which means I have 1 full term left at my school which I’ve been at for 9 years. BIG CHANGE!

    Green Ink, good to hear. :) I know Vancouver is beautiful. I can’t wait to discover more of her.

    Claire, yes I will love that weather. You’re supposed to be a tough Aussie, you’d probably die if you came back home lol

    Welcome to Canada (I’m from Toronto myself, immigrated from the Philippines by way of my Chinese parents)! I’ve been following you at Paper Cameras, but glad to find this site as well!
