Hi Everybody,
I'm Carolynn, and recently I decided to move to Rome. My family is all here as well as my boyfriend... soooo it was a clear decision. Either way I haven't met any Canadians in my time here, mind you it's only been 6 months but still. I met an American tho... haha it's funny I wasn't capable of speaking english with her like I used to. lol. Anyway, can't say that I'm missin Canada like crazy, but I can say for SURE life is easier at home. haha.

Hi all you Canadians, I am from Toronto and came to Liverpool for a visit 18yrs ago and decided to stay. I miss Swiss Chalet and Mr Sub haha sad I know, and I miss the snow, we never get snow here like we do in Canada.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum so I thought I'd post a reply on this thread :D . I'm originally from Toronto, but we moved around alot when I was a kid so I was raised between Toronto, Boston, London, Kenya and the UAE. I currently live in the UAE but am planning on moving back to Canada after being away for just over 6 years!

So you can imagine my anxiety eh. My sister moved back two years ago and she has some stories to tell on the amount of changes over there now.

The UAE is not a bad place to live, not bad at all :wink: . I have met alot of Canadians here but the majority of Western expats here are British and I can't stand most of them :lol: .

I've only just discovered this site and I love it. I've been reading on alot of the old posts especially on the ones of people who have moved back to Canada after a hiatus and I'm kicking myself for not finding it sooner!

Well I think I've rambled enough. Thanks for this very helpful forum admin et al!

Cheers,

Deana

Hey everyone!
I'm a 15 year old girl living in a [b]tiny[/b] village near Karlsruhe, Germany. I just moved here in February because of my dad's work, and I've been working like crazy to learn the language! I miss Canadians and Canada so much already, though I'm enjoying travelling around Europe alot. I can't wait to go home in 3 years, but luckily I'm visiting Canada this summer, too. I just found this site today, and I wish I had found it earlier because its helping my homesickness ! :)

Hey all,

As I type, on TV the NHL playoffs ring true from the next room ... ahhh, good 'ol native land.
Anyway, I just moved to Bermuda in Nov. '05 & am liking it so far.
It's pretty expensive but you can make some cash.
Here's a site on CDN's in BDA (www.canadians.bm).

If anyone has any questions/comments about my newly adopted country, fire away.

Ciao,
Wendell
