Settlement

I've been living in Canada for 3 years, and it has been tough, but at the same time an encouraging experience. Nobody can imagine how difficult it is to leave your country without anything and trying to find new opportunities for you and your family.

Emigrating to a new country without knowing the language to face a new culture in a multicultural city, trying to find a place to live, and other things has been difficult and hard.

After three years living in Canada, we can say that it has been an experience with a lot of patience, tolerance, respect, resilience, a lot of learning, love for your family, but above all a lot of personal and family growth.

Some of my friends call me and ask me about my experience living here, so I just tell them that it is difficult to start again, but Canada is a beautiful country with a lot of opportunities, and the most important thing is that the country takes you by hand along your new path.
