Well friends, here i am in Canada at last! I am so happy to be here, i am liking it a lot so far, but can't believe i only arrived a few days ago, it feels more like i've been here a month. So i guess that's a good sign that i'm adjusting well!

My journey over here however was possibly the worst day of my life. After missing my connecting flight due to the first one being delayed, i nearly missed the following one, but that was also delayed. So by the time i arrived in Calgary( about 4 hours after i was meant to) i was more than ready to just collapse in bed... until my name was called out at the baggage claim area. Of course i was the person who had had their luggage left behind in Chicago. Three days later and i still don't have my bags, so a word of warning to everyone, never fly with United airlines! After filling out the relevant forms i walked into arrivals and was met by Jen and her dad.

Luckily the first couple of days weren't very cold which was definitely a relief for me, but this morning it was -12 and i am not looking forward to going outside in it! I know for sure that i am going to have an amazing year here, and this was definitely the right decision for me!
