EICI STUDENT’S AREA

Antonio Romano Encinas

"I feel comfortable in North Bay . I think that Canadians are friendly and nice people.

I feel happy with my host family here, although they have different customs.

I thought that the food would be a problem but I like the Canadian food. I would prefer Mexico’s meal times, but it isn’t a problem. Sometimes I feel strange eating supper at 6:00 or 7:00 pm instead at 2:00 or 3:00 pm.

I’m happy with the school and my classmates are nice, the teachers are good people who help us to improve our English.

The Canadian people that I have met are agreeable and they love Mexicans.

North Bay is a small city that has all kinds of things to make me happy."

“Living in another country could be interesting but also kind of difficult.

Before I came to Canada I was afraid. I thought that I wouldn’t get along with the host family and roomie. The language was the only thing that I was worried about, and I was afraid of the city because I didn’t know it yet.

After I arrived here, I felt very comfortable. The city is beautiful and calm, and the people are nice, kind, and friendly. I think that they love Mexicans.

My host family is very gentle, as they always try to help me and now I love them.

The school is good and I think that I have learned a lot because the teachers are very helpful.

Canada is very different from my country: the weather, people, and customs. I like it though.

I have been in Canada for 2 months and I miss my family, and friends, but I’d rather stay in Canada because this is a very good experience for me."
