Hey, it's Andrea and I'm here to help you with your journey into Canada. I share videos on my experiences, tips and tricks that will help you get ahead when settling in. Just like you, we also dreamt of moving to a new destination, where we could settle and flourish. We moved from South Africa to Canada in 2017. I had the same challenges in understanding where to find the best information on moving abroad and settle my family in a new country. I also struggled understanding the education system, how to find a home and all the questions that keep you up at night during this journey.

    Love Veldskoens! Did you have to downsize as the leather stretches? I’ve been advised by them not to buy your typical size. Thanks

    Yes, definitely, very, very important when driving on Canadian roads in the middle of winter... You do actually need windshield washer fluid, and lots of it, like all the time! Along with the best wipers you can afford, of course. But don't get suckered. Windshield washer fluid is windshield washer fluid. They're all the same. Get the cheapest windshield washer fluid you can find. True Canadians never overpay, LOL

    Wow, just saying as a Canadian, how embarrassing. I never actually realized how so many different types of milk we actually had compared to other countries, lol. Look, it's not that complicated. The 1% is what you put on your cereals. The 2% is what you put in your coffee. Want to be healthy? Then you go with the 0%, soya milk, etc. Don't really care about your health? Then go with the 3% or higher. Want your milk to last longer? Then go for the filtered, double-filtered, way more expensive milk. As for chocolate milk... Everybody loves chocolate milk! 😊

    Just saying as a Canadian... The biggest problem is NOT the prices, lack of options, too many options, imported, not imported, not enough choices, too many choices, frozen, unfrozen, fresh, not fresh... The BIGGEST problem is learning how to cook, LOL 😳 😳 😳

    "Not to give up, stick to the plan, fill in the paperwork, do what you need to do." Wow, I love it! 👍 That is actually very, very good advice. You should either trademark that slogan or put it on a bumper sticker, LOL

    Hey, just saying as a Canadian, thanks so much for sharing your immigrant experience. We Canadians who were born here don't always understand all the difficulties and challenges that immigrants face. So, it's actually quite important to talk about it. One thing I do know, though, and can say... Thanks for choosing Canada! It might sound like a clichė but we Canadians actually care about the success of immigrants coming to this country. It's not just about immigration, integration, etc. But more importantly about making sure that people are happy and can thrive in Canada. Canada is still kind of an experiment, lol.

    The Best biltong and droewors ive ever had was from a Butcher here in sunny UK. I must mention it was a south african butcher but the quality is just superb. Some of the best steaks as well. UK cant beat SA for flavour and quality of ordinary goods . Cant wait for the Hyperama store to open here in the UK

    Ahhhh i understand! You will see - When all his friends wear warmer clothes, he will too. Also you can tell him that he can take some of the layers off at school (its so hot inside buildings), so it’s just for outside. Kids tend to always be warm because they run around etc. he needs to do what his friends do in winter!!! Good luck

    Hey! Nice video. I just moved to Canada and I'm having a hard time getting my son to wear winter appropriate clothes it's a struggle! We come from Santa Cruz, Bolivia and it's warm all year round. My son doesn't want to put the winter clothes because it's too "big" and it's just sweat pants! When hard winter come I don't know how he will manage with this snowpants 🤧 any tips? Oh and he's 9 years old.
