Coming to Canada

I grew up in Sudan. I moved to Canada almost two years ago with my husband and children.

The trip took about two days. Although we were very tired, we were very happy and excited to see Canada.

Cold and snowy

Before I came to Canada, I didn't have much information about it. All I knew was that the weather was very cold and snowy.

I thought it was like this all year. I had no idea about the other seasons.

I also thought there were no trees or plants growing and no sun shining.

Now I know Canada is a very wonderful and beautiful country.

It has friendly and helpful people.
