So I recently found out that I will be studying my second semester (January - April) in the lovely Seneca College, Toronto, Canada!! I'm so excited to be planning a new stage in my life that involves travel and fashion!
In 2009, at the age of 16, my high school provided me with one of the greatest opportunities of my life so far... to act as part of an exchange program to Nelson, BC, Canada. I was expected to study my Scottish School subjects in a completely new surrounding and leave my safety blanket of Fife at home. 5 students from St. Andrews ventured West to the land of snow for two months, before flying home for Christmas.
Living in Silverton, really opened my eyes to new cultures and living in a new environment. Swapping my semi-modern home for a cabin in the woods and 5am starts. The experience was extremely different from what I was used to, with limited interent and no phone signal, but turned out to create an amazing experience and permitted me to make a life-long friendship with my exchange partner.
I am SO excited to be starting on my new adventure in January, starting in Toronto, then flying West to visit friends and family, finishing in Vancouver. After booking flights last week it's all becoming a little bit more real! Although I will definitely miss all my friends and family back home, especially the parentals and the dogs, I just hope I don't cry as much as I did the last time!
I've been told that Montreal will suffice my need for fashion, so I will definitely try and spend a bit of time there if my timetable isn't too filled up with the amount of things I want to see and do!
I will definitely write a more detailed blog post about Canada in the near future when I'm provided with more information!
