One step at a time

Just booked my flight to Canada 🇨🇦 and I do not know why I got anxious as soon as I confirmed it. I am not even going for good just yet, but yea i guess i feel immigration is getting real now. A lot to figure out and adjust to... but let's take one step at a time, and for now, i just want to make this trip VERY enjoyable and very useful too (get done with anything that I can get done while there) ... I think if I really enjoy my time on this relatively long trip, my stress when the final move comes may decrease and I may look forward to it more.. So for now, I just need to learn how to enjoy myself, and to plan this trip really well, which isn't an easy task for someone like me..

I can't imagine making such a life change! I would be filled with anxiety but also excitement! I hope you have a good time here. Where are you staying? I forgot if it was VAncouver or Calgary?

@JimboSaturn On this trip i plan to visit Toronto, Ottawa and various places within Quebec ... but for when I leave permanently, my first choice of destination is Ottawa.

@BittersweetPotato Toronto? Way too close to me. *begins packing* ☺️

@BittersweetPotato Yes that's right! Ottawa, my hometown, we've discussed this ; senior moment here :P

@JimboSaturn Is that bagel place still in the Byward Market? 🤔

JimboSaturn · 56-60, M

@Degbeme I don't know! That was a great place. I haven't been to the market in over 10 years I think.

@Degbeme I've had many a after bar closing drunken meal there :P

@JimboSaturn It`s been years since I was there too. The wife would be at her meetings and I`d be sitting in that place stuffing my face. 😅

@BittersweetPotato wait until the moose, elk and poutine talk comes.

@BittersweetPotato be careful in Canada. All I'm saying. At least Mexico only uses wheat and corn.
