It definitely feels like we have skipped spring and went from Sprinter directly to Summer. Just last Monday it was snowing and last Sunday was already +24C and it has been like that since then and supposedly will continue for a week. I am very happy about that – I have missed the Sun tremendously! […]

In between the snowy and windy days, we actually managed to go for a cycle trip finally. There are so many bike paths everywhere around us and we have been waiting for the weather to improve for ages. On Sunday we decided to venture out early and take a short trip along the Bow river […]
As I’ve written before, I started working with a coach in the beginning of April to get my company started more efficiently and faster. Now I have been doing the homework every week, figuring out what my niche could be, meeting people and doing my market research in getting to know whether the niche I’m […]
Given our taste for a beer, we have tried and tested a few establishments by now. I still haven’t found the beer that I could enjoy as much as I enjoy beers in Estonia. But we have a few favourite pubs to go to. The common problem with the beers here is that they are […]
Heard a saying on the radio today that so well describes the weather conditions here in Calgary – ‘the season that has formerly been known as Spring has been renamed to Sprinter’.

We have lived in Calgary for over 3 months now, but still have not bought ourselves a car. It was a conscious decision to see if we need one and how well do we cope without. For weekends when we want to go skiing or just visit some new places in the Rockies, we rent […]
With moving from continent to continent all kinds of things come to surface. We brought most of our stuff with us from Estonia to use here in Calgary. Some work without a power conversion, some work slow and some don’t work at all. For example I had to buy a new hair dryer because the […]
After last Tuesday’s +19C in Calgary, the weather went back to being very wintery. Overcast and cold and by today -11 and 6cm of snow. Nevertheless we believe that spring will not be long now and Easter Sunday we planted some seeds as a start of our herb garden. We had been to Canadian Tire […]
I signed up a few weeks ago to be coached by Tara Butler. She organised the webinars to starting entrepreneurs that I was listening in for most of February and of all the coaches interviewed, I decided to choose her to help me on my journey of becoming an entrepreneur. I chose her because I […]
We only have Friday off here in Canada, so we had rented a car already Thursday evening to be able to go to the mountains early on Friday. We put on the ski kit and packed the bags and went straight to the Nordic Centre of Canmore. http://www.albertaparks.ca/canmore-nordic-centre.aspx The weather was fantastic – sunshine and +8 […]
