prepare for a very long winter , bino bulldozer ang snow sa Alberta ;D usually rent or house mortgage takes most of the money we earn but then we need a house to live in so no choice. mahal pala rent dyan ano? it`s understandable naman it`s a tourist destination. i went to banff before and it was july pero malamig especially at the top of sulphur mountain. you can adjust it just take some time. it`s really hard when there`s only one income and you have to think of daycare if you decide to go to work which cost money too. i know very cheap lang sasakyan, my husband encouraged me to learn how to drive so i can have some kind of independence. good luck sa new life mo sa Canada.
thank you ;D gustong gusto nga nmin mgkaroon ng sasakyan wala nga lang kmi driver license mas madali sana kung meron na kami professional drivers license from pinas....Goodluck sa ating lahat ;D

it`s really important to have a car and driver`s license especially pag walang public transport, but it`s wintertime so it`s better to wait till summer. pero pwede namang mag study ka na for the knowledge test. i didn`t bother when i was in vancouver but when i moved to alberta i had to do it or else i`ll be stucked inside the house, just to go to the grocery store naku ang hirap eh tayo pa naman when we go to superstore small sack na bigas ang bitbit kaagad ;D i got lots of humorous stories actually so yong mga bagong dating you`re free to ask.

Hi Keli
I hope all your questions were answered already. There`s another thread on the forum for LC2 (Live in Caregiver applicants) please join, members there can help you especially those who are waiting for the finalization of their applications.
thanks brookslakeside! thanks sa mga nag reply. wala na pala sumagot dun sa last na tanong ko pero na-ipasa ko na yung application ko via fedex and na track ko din na na-receive na sa abu dhabi. any ideas ang time-line sa processing ng abu dhabi? thanks ulit!
