What's it like living life as a first-generation immigrant... Figuring out all things by yourself! 🙌🏽 I randomly came across the words "First-Generation Immigrant," and it made me realize how my immigrant journey has changed my thinking. Living in a new country has been on my bucket list since high school. At that time, it was to experience new things like traveling to new places, experiencing the feeling of snow, and enjoying the colours of fall. But experiencing the immigrant journey for real, the first and most important thing I learned is: Don't let your survival job dictate your life. Two weeks after landing in Canada, I started my first job. It was nothing related to what I studied for years at University, but I needed to start somewhere soon. Starting in the pandemic was such a new experience. I met amazing multi-cultured people. I learned things so fast and got the chance to convert my job to a permanent one and lead to a promotion. I've heard so many times how hard it is to find a permanent job, but what if it's not the right one for me? Of course, this gives me assurance of a permanent income, but what about living my life? Down the line, will I regret it? So many questions in my mind, and I decided to trust myself and say NO to the opportunity. To this date, I don't regret it. It was a few tough months that I had to live off my little savings until I find my next opportunity. Counting and tracking all my expenses to the point I get stressed out thinking of buying a small chocolate. But it was worth it. The dream was to move to a new country and experience life. The life I wanted, not to settle for something and live as I was before. Not the same life, just a different country. Here's the wakeup call or the motivation you needed to trust yourself and be confident. You got this! Get your dream life, and I know I'm still working for it, but with no regrets. Keep achieving! #immigrantlife #firstgenimmigrant #lifelessonslearned

A great post from Oyin Steve CMP® I would say the majority of people (Newcomers and Canadians), don't land 6 figure jobs right away (if ever). So just a reminder to all Newcomers, it's not the norm and certainly not the norm when you just get out of university or are new to the country. But if you are aiming for those higher paying jobs you need to ask yourself: 1. How is your English? 2. Do you have the language/vocabulary required to market yourself properly in the interview? 3. Do you have the language/vocabulary for the actual job itself? If you are looking at 6 figure jobs you are going to need at least a Canadian Language Benchmark of 8 or higher. #esl #eslteacher #eslteaching #teachingenglish #englishteacher #businessenglishcoach #businessenglish #canadianimmigration #canadianbusinesses #immigrationcanada #immigrants #internationalstudents #manitobabusiness #manitobaimmigration #newcomerstocanada #newcomers

Last week marked a significant milestone in my life: I am officially a citizen of the United States of America! 🇺🇸 This journey has been one of resilience, adaptation, and growth. Immigrating to a new country means more than just changing your address. It’s about navigating and embracing a culture different from your own, while holding onto the rich tapestry of your heritage. It’s a balancing act between integrating new beliefs and maintaining your core values. The path to citizenship is not just a legal process; it’s a deeply personal one. It has taught me the true meaning of resilience. Adapting to a new culture, expanding ny knowledge on a language I only practiced on vacations, and building a life from scratch required not just strength but also an open heart. Leaving behind everything familiar was not easy. It was a leap of faith, driven by the hope of new opportunities and growth. The journey had its share of challenges, but each one was a stepping stone to where I am today. As I reflect on this journey, I am grateful for the support of my family, friends, and the wider community that has embraced me since day 1. Their encouragement was a beacon of light on this path. To those who are on a similar path, know that your journey is unique and valuable. Embrace the challenges, celebrate your heritage, and remain open to the endless possibilities that your new home offers. I am excited to start this new chapter as a U.S. citizen, carrying with me the lessons learned and the memories cherished. This is more than a change in status; it’s the beginning of a new chapter in my story. #NewCitizen #ImmigrantJourney #CulturalIntegration #Resilience #Growth #NewBeginnings

Continuation of the post about 👉 2 years in Canada: 1. Canada has become my second home. Honestly. 2. I don’t feel like an immigrant here. 3. I’m no longer annoyed by naked children at -10)): now mine run around in T-shirts and shorts at -5. 4. I forgot the word “corruption”. It's like it's in this language - at our level! - does not exist. 5. I'm only used to smiling people! At work, in the store, at the pool - everyone says hello to you. You're relaxed. 6. Medicine: I personally am 90% satisfied and grateful for everything! 7. When I asked my Andrew, “what differences do you see between Ukraine and Canada”, he answers: “Mom, good teachers, no one swears, the children are very open and everyone is kind! And the adults are friendly. You see everything yourself).” 8. You don’t expect “problems” at every turn; - you live your life calmly. 9. There is clear confidence in the future. You're safe. And it gives you peace of mind. 10. Closeness to nature, to animals: squirrels, bears, deer at arm's length. 11. The taxi driver is from Tibet, close friends are from Argentina, Canada, Italy, India. You are a cosmopolitan. And I can no longer imagine how to live differently. 12. Luxury brands are “at a distance” of one official salary. Diamonds from Tiffany, of course not! - in this case, 4-5 salaries. 13. Being Canadian, we are not yet! - you don’t know what a visa or a border is: they are open to the whole world. 14. World stars - here: from JLo to Beyoncé. Interesting??????🤔

Returning to one's country of origin after immigrating can be a profound and complex experience, laden with a myriad of emotions and reflections. For many immigrants, this journey back sparks introspection about the path they've taken and the roads left untraveled. Among these contemplations often lies the question: What if my family had never left? As the plane descends, my immigrant heart quickens with anticipation, a blend of excitement and trepidation coursing through my veins. I step onto the familiar soil, greeted by the sights, sounds, and scents of my homeland. The streets, once distant memories, now feel like old friends, welcoming them back with open arms. Yet, beneath the surface, there's a gnawing curiosity about the life that could have been. Walking through bustling marketplaces and quiet alleyways, I imagine an alternate reality where the family never boarded that plane bound for distant shores. What would their lives have looked like if they had stayed? Would I have forged the same opportunities and experiences that shaped the identity as an immigrant? As I reconnected with family and friends, I am struck by the diverging paths my life has taken. Whenever I met someone during my trip I would ask, if they had the opportunity to leave and go to the United States, the answer was yes they would. I asked most cab drivers, street vendors, and small shop owners, and beachside restaurants. The allure of the American Dream remains a powerful force for many people around the world, regardless of their circumstances. It embodies the promise of opportunity, upward mobility, and the pursuit of a better life. Despite the challenges and complexities of life in the United States, this dream continues to captivate the imagination of people worldwide. My journey and the perspectives I have encountered highlight the enduring appeal of this dream, even in the face of ongoing debates and criticisms about its attainability and inclusivity. It speaks to the resilience of hope and the universal desire for a brighter future. Reflecting on these insights can deepen your understanding of your own experiences as an immigrant and offer newfound appreciation for the complexities of cultural identity and the paths we choose in life. It's a testament to the richness of human experience and the diverse ways in which we navigate our journeys through the world.

𝑪𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒅𝒂 𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒉𝒂 𝒕𝒉𝒂 𝑳𝒂𝒘𝒚𝒆𝒓 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒖𝒈𝒂! 𝑹𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒐𝒎 𝑱𝒐𝒃𝒔 𝒎𝒆 𝒇𝒂𝒔 𝒌𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒉 𝒈𝒂𝒚𝒂… One of the downfalls when you come to Canada is… Random jobs become your addiction. Random jobs become your comfort zone. Random jobs become your hope. Random jobs become your career. I've heard many stories like yours, where some uncle came to Canada and became a lawyer in 8 years. I asked my curious inner self... Why would someone take that long to become one? Is the pathway difficult? Are there any restrictions to it? Maybe it wasn’t his plan to become one. I told myself, “Listen, work hard and become a lawyer before your PR”. 𝓗𝓸𝓌 𝒾𝓃𝓈𝓅𝒾𝓇𝒾𝓃𝓰 𝒾𝓉 𝒾𝓈. Never thought about the challenges, Never thought about the situation, Never thought about the breakdowns, Never even thought about the career changes, Which will show up during my journey. Now the present me can tell my past self that it wasn’t that easy. The story I heard about that uncle doesn’t depict the struggles and breakdowns he might have gone through. 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 How many times he failed? How many times did he think about quitting? How many times did he tell himself he could do it? No matter how much struggle you have gone through, you will always be remembered for what you have achieved. Make sure you give your 100%. It doesn’t matter whether you are in Canada or in any other country in the world. Your achievements will echo the struggles and sacrifices of your journey. #CanadianCareers #ImmigrantJourney #CareerPathways #Perseverance #SuccessStories #CanadianDream #CareerChallenges #ImmigrantSuccess #WorkHardAchieveMore #CareerGoals

Unfiltered Truth for Immigrants in Canada Thinking of living the dream in Canada, right? Supercars, having own business, a big mansion, the whole shebang! 🎬 But let's talk real for a sec. 📌Not everyone dreams of a 9-5 job for life, but guess what? Some folks live that life and are happier than ever. 📌No judgment, just facts. I'm not here to sell you a course, please my boss, or sugarcoat things for friends. I'm here to spill the beans on what's worked for me. ☕ 📌Here's the deal: success starts with being a believer before you become an achiever. 🏃♂️Usain Bolt wasn't born the fastest, but his belief set him apart. He out-believed the competition, and that's what made him a champ. 🏆 Similarly, I believe I'll be the best version of myself every single day and work towards it. Happy Hump Day, everyone! 🐫 #InternationalStudents #SuccessMindset #BelieveInYourself #HumpDayMotivation
