Hi Guys,
I am writing to you because I am sort of considering to move back to Canada from overseas.
I left Canada a long time ago with my parents and used to be in many different places around the world.
Recently I spent quite a few years in France (which I left because of the economic crisis and the overall mess there). Currently I am located in Melbourne, Australia and I'll be finishing my Business/Commerce degree by the end of 2015.
The plan is to move back to Canada and most probably to complete a Master's Degree in Petroleum Management or Natural Resources sort of thing.
I want to move to Calgary as I've heard that there is many different opportunities up there. Especially it looks like the petroleum/gas sector is still pretty much booming.
Obviously given my qualifications I will be most likely to undertake an office job in finance/private equity/energy consulting what means that I would not be willing to work in the fields.
However I've never been to Calgary myself and I know nobody who'd be able to provide me with any assistance or some sort of guidance.
I would like to know a little more about work opportunities, cost of housing (I'll be living with my spouse so 2 bedrooms should do), things to do in Calgary, things to do around Calgary, health care and growth opportunities and any other advices, remarks, beliefs from people who've been to Calgary, who've worked in Calgary or who just know Calgary
Any kind of advice will be appreciated,
Cheers,
