3 years!! you are just a baby in your adopted country, wait till you have been 40 years. That is how long I have been in my adoptive country and sometimes I still feel like an alien. It does get better and easier ..slowly year after year. I am sure you are going to make it well in Canada, your enthusiasm shows and I do wish you well and good luck.
Adaptation. Natural selection is not about having devices that are smarter than you are. I really love this video. It is relevant to immigrating anywhere. It is relevant to any change in one's life situation. I am sure you would be a success anywhere you go. It's about having the right attitude and taking responsibility for your choices. You are someone I would love to have as a friend, and I hope wherever you go people respect your mind.
Binge-watched a bunch of your videos tonight, and found myself sometimes nodding and talking to myself, or smiling and tearing up. Been here for 7 months and grateful to be able to sustain myself, but can't stop comparing myself to others and overthinking things. Your experience helped put things in perspective. Thank you for what you're doing 🤗
i pushed the "Like" button since the beginning when i realized the new methode you are using of filming scenes interacting with what you are saying! BRAVO! and thanks for sharing your experience ! it's helpful and motivational in the same time
This was a really nice reminder, I'm going to be moving to Ontario in March from the UK, definitely helped ease some of my anxieties hearing it from someone who has been there and done it!
Glad it was helpful! You got this - all the best with your move. March is a good month to move - it starts getting warmer and sunnier and the real estate market is not as hot, so easier to rent a place
This one resonates a lot with me ))) Thank you for sharing. I just made a comment about being open-minded on one of your other videos, and mentality too ))) Sounds like I'm on the right track ))
I don't comment on UA-cam videos often, but wow did this really resonate with me lol. I'm reaching my second year of PR soon and I'm in that phase where I moved away from the city life, and now I want to go back to it because going for events and making friends is difficult elsewhere! 😂 Thank you for this.
Glad you could resonate with that! I've realized that moving away from the city is ideal when you have a spouse/partner and stable friendships you can keep in touch with even if you're a bit further away. The city is still the best place to live your best young life and meet new people.
Wow..what a brave lady..New country new life ALONE..during a pandemic ..AND..look at you !! You excelled..you can rock anything..I'm impressed..what a star ..Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦
I'm in a very similar situation to what you experienced in your home country. I'm from Hungary, and I plan to leave because I feel like an outsider here. Now I'm trying to brush up on my high-school French (which was pretty strong back then) to get enough points for Express Entry. I've already visited Canada, and I have relatives there, which makes my situation easier. However, my biggest fear is the job search. I'm an engineer as well, but it was very hard to find a job in my field, even here at home, and I've never had a workplace that I really liked or that paid well. But your videos give me so much hope and inspiration! I’m ambitious too, and I think that in the right environment, I’ll finally be able to soar.
Call me a typical Bob of being the stereotype of newcomer with PR, and Anna You mindset 3 years ago was exactly same as mine now, feeling trapped and “homeland foreign”, over-romantic imagination of automatic merging into the western world, etc. Yet the reality in Canada will give me a hard lesson from, well, job hunting, high educational background usually means high expectation but followed by depression. Thanks for all your advice and encouragement for my future here, I am gonna attend the job application courses, study for getting a license, be active and always open to learn.
I can really resonate with lesson #2 and it's true that the longer you stay outside of your home country the wider the gap is with your own friends and families.
In 5 days I'll be moving to Canada to do a 1 year postgraduate program in digital marketing and I gotta say that, even though I haven't really started my journey yet, I can really relate to the first lesson. Especially the "fear" part. 😄 I've researched, and continue to research, everything I can think of but I'm still plenty nervous. Above all, for the process of finding a job (obligatory to do so for my 3rd semester). I'm 24 years old and have little to no professional experience in my own country; let alone in an entirely different country like Canada but I will do my best and take the initiative as much as I can in terms of doing research, being open minded, putting myself out there, ect... Lastly I want to say, the reason why I came across your channel in the first place was beceause I was doing research. This is perhaps the only channel that I've subbed to that focuses on making videos about Canada & immigration because every video is always very grounded and very informative + with a lot of effort put into it. I can see myself still enjoying the content you guys put out even years from now. So, I wish you more success and thank you for the good work!
Congratulations! I wish it was more simple for people to move from one country to another without having to struggle to try to get a visa or something. I hope one day I can call it home.
😅 when you mentioned "don't get stuck in a job for years..." oh man... i've been in the same company for 12 year!! Stuck in the comfort zone and feeling too protected by the company's excellent welfare. But when I make the move back to Canada, I'll take that leap out of my comfort zone and apply for a job that my husband believes I'm capable in doing well but I doubt myself because I've never done it as a profession before. Or else I'll always wonder to myself what I could have achieved if I did pursue it.
You’ve got this! What’s the worst that’s gonna happen? You can already do the job you’ve been doing for 12 years. If all else fails you can always come back to doing the old thing. BUT imagine all the possibilities of the new thing/job!
We are very similar in the planning. I am hyper prepared while my partner is like 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ During our 3 years in Finland I felt the disconnect that you described with friends back home . I found those who did understand were those who had also lived abroad. I love your advice to have goals AFTER you move. As Always thx for the excellent info. Does your channel have a Patreon?
Hey Anna, what a great experience! Thank you for sharing. I am just now in the same shoes you were once ago. I am in my preparation to apply to a college in Canada for my post-degree and I am wondering how I can get ready for the challenges I will find in Canada, with the plus of taking my wife and my daughter with me to be there for two years. For me was a relief listening to your words, indeed I have to get open to continue changing and that is it, then just dive in and do the next step one at a time. Thanks!
There are 100s of immigration programs that exist, many don’t require a degree. I recommend you explore various programs on Canada.ca and find one that suits you best!
Awesome video Thank you so much for sharing your amazing experience. First time subscriber am looking forward coming to Canada true the Temporary work visa with Relocated Ltd. Please what is your thoughts on that
Hi Ann! Best of luck in your endeavours! Make sure you're confident working with third party company, especially if they are not licenced immigration consultants, but more like job search counsellors. Read your contract before signing. And note that no one can guarantee 100% success. Best of luck and thank you for watching our videos!
I am flowing with your story Anna..Question though..Did you move to Canada through a job offer because I thought so at first because I noticed you got a job offer after a month? I like your parting shot
I'm going move to Calgary next month from Uganda and I feel excited for it but I'm curious is there any job's opportunity for those have certificate in electronics technician or any other jobs
Congrats Anna! You are a success story. And, yes, russian female spies in movies are always beautiful. That's why immigration officers might had suspected you 😁
I was looking up for New Arrival Services , but these services are for immigrants coming from Ukraine . is there any other website for new arrivals in Canada from asian countries?
These services are for all newcomers with PR or work permit regardless of the country of origin www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/campaigns/newcomers.html
You must be an engineer. You have engineer brain. Over-build. Having left Canada what astounds me is how NOTHING is "free" to help immigrants. I usually feel like a bank account being raped for NO services render. I don't mind paying if the people do anything, but someone doing part of the job and expecting pay ... or else. It gets old. This vlog is not about moving to Canada (except the free stuff 🤣), it's about moving anywhere. I didn't find my first move halfway around the world scary (pre computer age) I found it FUN!!! I had no idea what I was leaving and you take yourself with you everywhere you go. You have only your own background to "interpret" life until you have more experiences. I like watching your vlog. It doesn't make me want to return "home", but it's nice to see another immigrant who takes responsibility for her choices. Immigration is not a baby-sitting service. You get out of life what you put into it.
Salaries in Russia actually are way better than in Canada, especially if you work in IT sector in a city like Moscow. And along with rent prices in cities like Vancouver or Toronto that makes Canada unattractive at least financially.
What about rent prices in Moscow? Not the outskirts 😉 Plus, moscow is not representative of the whole Russia, we all know that. And not everybody works in IT sector. Anna is a petroleum engineer and she's not from Moscow. But you're not wrong, to your point salaries in Moscow could be better from the taxes perspective😊
3 years!! you are just a baby in your adopted country, wait till you have been 40 years. That is how long I have been in my adoptive country and sometimes I still feel like an alien.
