Default Hi from Canmore, Alberta

Hi to the forum,
Wanted to introduce myself and tell you a little bit about my migration, would love to hear from anyone, who has questions or may benefit from our experiences. I used the forums when we were in the proccess and now would like to return the favour by helping others...
My husband Pete , son Oliver (2) and I emigrated in 2003 to Alberta, Canada. Not long after my brother was killed in a motorbike accident in UK, I became homesick, and couldn't get over it. Ended up returning to UK in 2005 after being offered a good job back there. Stayed until 2007 after having time to come to terms with my brothers death, and realised there was still lots we wanted to do in Canada. We returned to Alberta in August 2007, and now feel much more settled and back on track. I am so glad we spent time in the UK and were able to come back here. We are moving into our new house on Friday and will be spending Christmas in our new home - yippee!
Good luck to everyone, starting out on your journey to achieve your dreams. Go for it!! just think you will have christmas in your new country soon x
Louise

Welcome Louise,

Good luck with the move on Friday!

This year will our first Christmas in a new country - it will be so strange to have a hot Christmas. I still keep forgetting that it's December!

Regards,
Karen

We haven't decided whether to go for a picnic in the Grampians (mountains in Victoria) or whether to have a picnic on the beach. It definitely involves a picnic since we've never had one for Christmas before
