worthwhile waiting
Been a while since I've been in here but I think it is appropreate to give some feedback to a forum where I always found very helpfull people and a lot of answers to my questions in my nail-biting pre-move period.
It's been more than 5 months now since the big move and I still think we made a good decission .People are friendly here, they accept you very well ( got to know the language though ! ) and we just love the space over here.
I will be starting 2 businesses in a short while, so I still have to wait and see on that, but I'm pretty confident they will do good.
Anyway,what I wanted to say...the long wait is worthwhile.

Hey Julius
Long time no speak eh ?
We applied at the same time on similar visas but I moved over here about 18 months ago.
Best thing I ever did.
Good luck.
Go Leafs Go.
