Falkenburgerland with a twist

Publicerad 2013-07-22 21:19:54 i Toronto, Canada,

The summer is here (and almost over) but not yet! So far it's been amazing, have been so busy but so much fun! Met some new awesome people, and also spent quality time with my loved ones.

Would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have been so supportive over the last couple of months. Everything is more then fine, it's great. Me and my family couldn't have done this without you. Thank you ❤

Big Kids

Publicerad 2013-02-11 21:01:47 i

Had the best day. After Becky was done working we decided to build an aroma snowman on our patio.
Kids were passing us and decided to help also ended up with a snow fight haha we literally acted like big kids.
The snowman turned out amazing and we got so many compliments on it! The weather was amazing so when we were done we room out two chairs and sat beside it for a bit while people admire it ;). Haha

Call us Weird it's okay

Finally got to ski!!
Went to blue mountain in north Ontario for 3 days. Had such a great time, didn't fell at all and felt so good to be back on my skis. The weather was amazing. Not to crowded either which made it possible to ski even more w no lines for the lifts.
Enjoy

We decided to through a party. Invited our 15 closes friends and had such a nice time! The tequila gun came out and yeah look for yourself on the pics how it looked like haha.

Here's the thing

Publicerad 2013-01-09 21:50:00 i

Okay, dags att berätta hur situationen ligger här borta för mig i Kanada. Lättare att ta det på svenska denna gång.
Jag är här på ett Work&Holiday visa, vilket betyder att jag kan jobba här i ett år(vilket jag nu har gjort, crazy). I allafall, jag vill stanna och har de mest underbara chefer man kan ha. I mitt case är det svårt att få ett Work permit vilket jag behöver för att stanna. Så mina chefer har anlitat en advokat för mig och processen är nu igång, jag vet ingenting hur allt detta kommer sluta. Under processens tid så får jag inte jobba eftersom mitt nuvarande visum inte längre är godkänt. Som tur är får jag svenskt besök på fredag och vi ska upp till Montreal och åka skidor! Så får se detta som en lång semester :).

I slutändan så kan det sluta med att jag får visumet i handen och kan skriva på ett kontrakt under ett år här borta, eller kan det sluta med att jag blir deported från Kanada och måste lämna mitt hem och jobb här. Så allt jag kan göra nu är att Hoppas!

 

Stay positive :)

Three days of Christmas!
First on Sunday me and Becky had our own Christmas. Fancy dinner, exchanged presents and watched Christmas movies. December 24th, I went to Becky's family and celebrated w them (half Danishes half Canadians) so had meatballs, rise pudding, glogg and gingerbread, so felt kind of like home.
December 25th, the Canadian Christmas, woke up and opened presents at Becky's moms, had breakfast, went to the movies and had Christmas dinner at night.

I have the best family and friends, love you all so much. You inspire me to fight, follow my dreams and I miss you so much but you give me so much energy and that's what keeps me going

The Christmas decorations are everywhere, especially at the Eaton Centre (Toronto's biggest shopping mall). The mall is packed with people though..! Everyone is running around and the lines were crazy.
Yesterday night me and two friends went to a friends art show. Very nice, but went home earlier cuz of work the next day. Work is going good now, have done a bunch of marketing for the store and we received good response from it so that makes me and the bosses very happy ;).

God Bless Ikea

Since they don't drink glogg or celebrate advent here, I decided to give Becky the Swedish experience what we do every Sunday before Christmas.
We went to Ikea, had dinner and shopped both food and some decorations to our apartment.
Got home lit the candle (I sung the advent song haha) listened to Swedish Christmas songs and made gingerbread. I heated up the Glogg and told her to dip the gingerbread in it, She loved it! Later we also tried it with some red wine in it, really good too.
God Bless Ikea <3
