My expat journey

London, England

Sept 2009 - Jun 2010

London, England

After I finished my studies I went to live and work there to get my first work experience and of course, to experience life in London. It was the year when I had to decide what I would do later, a transition...
I taught French in a highschool in West London, also going out with friends, discovered London
Great place for going out all the time, shopping, career opportunities, making money, develop your network, meeting lots of new people from everywhere in the world, also eating food from everywhere in the world...transports are very convenient for a big city at anytime anywhere, there are a lots of parks everywhere. Very interesting from an artistic point of you: lots of exhibitions and great museums. At first I did not like London as much as I had liked Canada but when I left I missed the city for a while.
Life there and people are always in a rush, cold, rainy, foggy and windy season between November and February with night coming from 4-5pm

Toronto, Canada

Oct 2006 - Jul 2007

Toronto, Canada

I was there for a gap year :)
I did some travelling in Ontario, Qu茅bec, and did the way to Vancouver and the Rockies by bus :p and I worked, small jobs like waitress or barista at coffee shops :)
I love Canada and will love it forever :D It is my best ever destination and I will surely get back there in the next years to settle down. People are great and lovely, helpful, open-minded, easy-going, relaxed, nature is amazing and...winter is not that cold hehe
nothing really

Going out for a drink or eating somewhere? by Mariion

Hi everyone, I'm Marion, just moved to Beijing few weeks ago for my job. I don't know much about the city for now and I'd like to get to know new places, new people. I was wondering if some of you are in the mood to hang out for a drink somewhere ...

Mariion

That would be an idea :-) I don't have any clue for now where I can get good wine in Beijing. What help? Do you know some places where to taste good wine? Or you sell wine? Read More
