One of Vancouver's immigrant life: whether to immigrate or not

Since I immigrated, many friends around me have asked me about my life, study, work, food, clothing, housing, education and medical care in Vancouver. Especially after starting a blog, bloggers will have the same problem. Of course, the life presented on my blog is beautiful. In fact, immigrants here are more real life, and many people don't understand it. I have long wanted to write a word and introduce the relevant situation relatively objectively. Always procrastinating, lazy, making excuses, afraid to write. I didn't decide to write until a few friends asked me recently. There is a lot of information about this on the Internet now, and there are also many books about immigration on the market, especially books about immigration to Canada. There are also two TV series Farewell to Vancouver (very unreal) and Little Overseas Students (relatively real) which also reflect the lives of some Canadians to some extent. In short, everyone knows something more or less, but it is probably not comprehensive enough, or it is easy to be influenced by his own inherent or self-righteous impression through some channels. Although what I will say in the future must be subjective impression, you can still see the other side from my narrative, and you can understand the immigration problem from another angle, which can be used as a reference after all. For most families, to be honest, it takes a lot of courage to emigrate, because everything is a fresh start. Whether or not to emigrate depends on the determination of both husband and wife to emigrate. If one party is firmly opposed, or worried, or enjoys entertainment, or has no determination and interest in learning a language, or attaches great importance to the so-called decent work, or just wants the children to study here, the mother stays at home with her father (this situation is very common here, so Vancouver has an interesting nickname "Big Milk Village") and so on. Then you must think twice. Everyone has different personal feelings, such as the way of emigration, the specific circumstances encountered, the living environment and working conditions after coming here, especially personality hobbies, outlook on life and values (this is a bit big), and more importantly, attitudes towards people around them and life are quite different. Therefore, whether immigration is good or bad, right or wrong, should or should not, and is suitable or not, everyone will have different opinions. Therefore, if your attitude towards life is positive and optimistic, and you don't complain or complain, immigration will be a meaningful thing-even if you come back, it will still be a valuable life experience. I have close contact with a wide range of immigrant groups around me, including those engaged in the art industry (teaching musical instruments, painting, dance training, etc.). ), housing construction and decoration industry, nursing therapists, software engineers, restaurants, auto repair shops, etc. , are all good. On the whole, it seems that most of them stay behind, and very few of them go home; Most people are calm and happy, and a few people are anxious and disappointed. Generally speaking, the life of skilled immigrants is relatively hard, while that of investment immigrants is much more leisurely. As far as my family is concerned, because Mr. Wang's career is relatively successful, he is a person who doesn't like to talk and socialize, and he especially likes Vancouver (I dare not say it from now on); I am also a person who adapts to the environment easily, and I don't think much about the present, so I also enjoy my life and career in China. When I come here, I will actively learn English, walk more, communicate more with people, and meet new friends more widely to adapt to my new life, so that I can start a new study, work and life in the near future and enrich my life. Everyone has their own distress, in fact, it's the same everywhere, but the causes of distress are different, but the degree of distress is hard to say who is deeper than who, and the physiological and psychological reactions are probably not much different. Therefore, don't expect immigrants to change their personality and mood in different environments (of course, there are exceptions). The philosophy of human nature is the foundation of a better life.
