Hi Everyone,
I landed Canada Saturday at 4pm. I'll be posting more about my exit from the Philippines and my step-by-step experience after I get settled in.
Right now, the first thing I did (with the help of my sister and her husband -- I love you both for all your help!) was get a mobile SIM card. We went to the closest electronics store to the hotel (Future Shop) and bought a SIM. IIt's a good thing that they accepted my international credit card and US debit card so I was able to get on a monthly plan right away. I slapped that SIM into my new Samsung Galaxy S and I'm good! I ended up going with FIDO (which is part of the Rogers network) but also looked at Rogers and Chat-r.
The following day (yesterday), we spent the day house hunting. We must have visited around 6 apartments, but drover around neighborhoods and other apartment options the whole day. I think the total list of possibilities was around 18. It was a crazy day, so we treated ourselves to a hefty dinner in the city.
More to do today. It's a Monday when the sun rises and I'll need to open up a bank account.
More details to follow soon!
