Pros And Cons Of Brazilian Waxing

Discover Toronto with a Working Holiday Visa

In questo post vorrei trattare come argomento il mio viaggio di WHV con destinazione Toronto , dando dei consigli/opinioni a riguardo, sperando possano essere utili a chi, come me, inizierà la sua avventura Canada con un visto di vacanza/lavoro di 6 mesi. Molte delle persone con cui ho parlato e che si accingono a fare questo viaggio, non hanno ancora idea di cosa ne sarà del Canada una volta finiti i 6 mesi di permanenza o semplicemente vogliono fare un'esperienza all'estero per migliorare la lingua e arricchire il bagaglio di esperienze internazionali. Ma, qualunque sia il motivo che ti spinge a venire qui nella terra del maple syrup , anche tu dovrai fare i conti con le " regole "this country has on immigrants ... however temporary, I am of the view that as it may like snow, winter activities, get here when winter is upon us mean to deprive you of one of the seasons, summer, in which Canada is one of the most beautiful countries in the world! This season is all in bloom, all green, the grass grows lush Canadian between driveways and back yards in that find their glory thanks to the patient daily work of all lovers of gardening.
Once scheduled departure that is not should always be among your luggage, a laptop , enough money to live six months , gloves, hat and scarf of the hottest and wind resistant you can find! I will not list what needs to be done as the first day, I refer you to this link ( in Italian) for the list, but instead I just give my view of things and Toronto. It 'easy to understand how it can be exciting to come with a work visa, in a city like Toronto: large, cosmopolitan, more North American than many other Canadian cities. The first obstacle for many people who have no relatives or friends here find homes no secret that without credit history, no job and a visa only 6 months , many landlords will stories to rent an apartment, but do not be discouraged and opt for solutions " accessible " as basement furnished or a room in the house altri ragazzi e ragazze, solitamente più facili da trovare, almeno in downtown . Dopo i vari adempimenti burocratici come SIN number , conto in banca, PayAsYouGo card per il telefonino, visite in giro per la città da veri turisti, vi chiederete se non sia il caso di cercar lavoro, se non altro per il fatto che l'ammontare dei soldi è sempre in calo. Molte delle persone con cui ho parlato o ci siamo scritti email e quant'altro, hanno desiderio di trovare subito qualche lavoretto in bar/ristoranti o supermercati, a mio avviso una cosa che in Italia avremmo volentieri evitato di fare, io per prima. Una cosa che ho scoperto qui, col tempo è che lavorare in un ristorante non è cosa facile ! In pratica anche per fare il cameriere ai tavoli c'è bisogno di molta esperienza , per cui non meravigliatevi se il ristorantino Italiano in Little Italy neanche vi richiama per dirvi " no grazie ". La spiegazione è presto detta: come in tutti i lavori, l'esperienza e references are essential obvious, but other factors also come into play. Tipping is mandatory in North America and is proportional to the income that you pay at the end of dinner, Toronto is a minimum of 15% , so if you have dinner at French restaurant in more of Toronto and the account is salty, the waiter who served you will receive a substantial tip, also doing the same job than that assumed in the fast-food the house. That's why there's a long ranks that part, since he adolescents, from fast-food large shopping center, until, after several years of experience, the restaurant in the center. The change history if you think working at a supermarket checkout, I think the easiest thing, but certainly less profitable .
Beyond all I always suggest trying to find something in your field, that is, where you feel most confident in the work. Being able to demonstrate experience, whatever it is, is the best reference you can provide.

Bloating From Food Poisioning

A monopoly called Rogers

Here I am to be a subject that is particularly " at heart": mobile phone, Pay TV and Internet provider. Of course my friend mush always tell me that I complain, but my opinion is that here the mobile does not work! E 'likely that the underlying problem is that it works very well in Italy. I suggest that you avoid like the plague rechargeable cards of any operator, are expensive, has a life of 30 days credit and international calling rates are in rush hour. Virtually a monthly bill without the benefits that would have implied a PayAsYouGo as they are called here the batteries. It is therefore inevitable
think immediately to make a contract with one of the few those operating in Canada, in practice they are only 2 but with different names. The market is still monopolized by Rogers and its Fido friend and everything else you say on . The contracts here are longer than the mortgage of your house and you can not withdraw, you are not selling a kidney to pay the cancellation fee . My contract is two years , I had a promotional discount, but I call gratuite dopo le 19:00 e nei week-ends ed sms illimitati . Il contratto ha un costo base di 45$ a cui vanno aggiunti 10$ se non vuoi pagare quando qualcuno ti chiama, altri 10$ se vuoi vedere il numero di chi ti chiama ed altri 5$ se vuoi: avviso di chiamata e segreteria telefonica, quest'ultima molto in voga in Nord-America. 
Meno disastroso è il discorso Internet e TV, se non in termini di soldi. Anche qui Rogers ha il monopolio. Internet è veloce, affidabile e l'attivazione è quasi immediata, almeno qui a Toronto. Di contro c'è che Rogers è famoso per generare bollette randomaticamente , so do not be surprised if the first bill is $ 500 more of what awaits you! Avg 1 Mbps you pay $ 35.99 + $ 3 month for the modem to 7 Mbps are $ 46.99 while 10Mbps are $ 59.99. The alternatives are a high speed with a local company that asks you to prepay a year and there provides a reliable line, but at very reasonable prices.
For TV I do not think there is another operator that provides this service ( cable), so there's plenty to choose from. Rogers starts with a basic plan with a series of channels to which unnecessary are 90% or teleshopping news on the latest tool that works wonders for weight loss. The monthly subscription starts at $ 29.99 up to over $ 100 based on their needs. The good thing in
tragedy of Rogers give a lot of money every month is that if, after several years of timely payments, threatened to switch carriers will offer new services and cell phones!
