I am going to introduce my Nanaimo life to you.

Nanaimo is on Vancouver Island that is close to many beautiful oceans, rivers and parks. When I came to Nanaimo, I was surprised. The reason is that it is similar to my childhood town. So, I decided to move to Nanaimo. After that I opened my restaurant with my sister and my brother.

I work from Monday to Saturday but I am happy because I met many Nanaimo citizens at my restaurant. They always said hello to me with their smile. If the weather was good, their greeting was happier than the other days.

Also, many visitors come to Nanaimo at summer season for their summer vacation. I can have conversation with other international people.

On Sundays or holidays, I have a good time with my children. We make lunch boxes with some snacks then we go to the beach, a park and outside playground.

Finally, Nanaimo life gave me many opportunities and these were learning about English and Canadian culture. I like Nanaimo life and I am very thankful for it.
