Canada

We all deserve to live in our own country, there is nothing more difficult than living far away from our country of origin. But for some reason I decided to leave my family, my childhood friends and even my good position as an employee at work in order to immigrate to Canada. This kind of decision is difficult to make obviously but I have no regret, because in the end it is worth it. But when it comes to living in Canada, there are many reasons that make me proud to live in such a great country. Canada has a high life quality, peace, human rights and a lot of people could agree on this assertion. But it's not only about life quality, the most important thing that motivates me so far is the amazing diversity that puts the country at the top of the immigration countries. People are coming from everywhere around the world to live in Canada, they share with us the same feeling of being far from home, but as the year goes, that feeling disappears as we build step by step, year by year a real feeling of home is built. Canada gives us many reasons to feel like home, freedom and more welcome. Great opportunity for me and my children are really amazing and we are lucky to experience diversity. The possibility to work and earn a good salary compared to other countries gives me the capacity to afford many things is a real advantage. On the other hand, the security is much better than many other places in the world. We all deserve to live in a place where we'd like to raise our children and build a family in a safe environment with no fear. Canada does his best to ensure that aspect. Living in Canada has many advantages and according to my own experiences Canada always inspires me to do better and be the best version of myself. I am proud to call Canada home and I will do my best for this country who made me who I am today.
