Been here 3 weeks now and have really settled in. We landed in Toronto on 31st Jan, just in time for the snow storm that hit a couple of days later!! Welcome to winters in Canada Our cats even seemed to enjoy the flight over, but haven't ventured outside yet!!
Currently staying with our great friends in Baden, a small town just outside Kitchener. We get the keys to our house next week so can't wait for that.
Have been really busy sorting out cars, insurance etc, and have managed to get a job which is a great relief that it has happened so quickly.
Getting out and about now, the best purchase we have got so far has to be the Satnav!! Looking forward to the rest of our lives here

Glad it's all going well for you. Sounds like you were thrown in at the deep end in so far as the weather was concerned though. Our cat, through her own choice, becomes an indoor cat throughout the winter, only venturing outside in the warmer months. All the best with moving into your own place and hope everything continues to go well for you.

Congrats on your move. Will you be living in Baden permanently? We are in Cambridge (about 15 mins. from Kitchener - and have been here since June). We absolutely love it here. Have fun getting out and about... there is so much to see right on your doorstep.

My cats tend to be indoors most of the time; although they do sometimes join us in the yard. Many cats are indoor animals in our neighbourhood. I have been told that there is a bylaw in KW Ontario stating that you should not let your cat wander outside of your own boundary - which is pretty bizarre... No one here seems to mind if they do though

Hi there. Sorry, I don't really know anything about hairdressing or trucking jobs out here. We were lucky that we moved out via the PNP program with my husband's job. I believe there's a trucker's forum on this site - you might get more help and answers on there. All the best.

Many congrats at the move. My family and I are considering moving to Barrie in the next 18 months. Any good advice?

Congratulations, Mark!

Hi Wags18uk, we got here 17th Feb also with a cat, so our timelines are very similar. I would love to hear how you are getting on 3 months in.
