My Real Home

A tale of 2 trips

Trip 1(Nov 29th 2006-March 4th 2007)I got to Canmore 15 days after leaving Vancouver.to be honest i did not know what to expect.What i got was a very big culture shock!
My first few weeks in Canmore i detested.i cannot explain why,i think it was due to the climate and the fact it was full of men(Canmore isnt called Manmore for nothing),living with my housemate Rahul did not help much.Suddenly something happened that i never expected.I met someone.A beautiful Brunnette named Tamara.We started dating and to be honest it was going very well.Then one day as i was on my way to tell her i loved her.She split up with me.Despite writing a love letter and asking her to meet up with me,i was at a loss to expalin why she had done this to me!Devastated,Heartbroken and looking back a complete mess,i made the choice based on my emotional state I left Canmore.

Trip 2-(May 20th 2007-June 25th 2007).I returned to Canmore after raeching the conclusion that i had left the town for the wrong reasons.While the ghosts of Tamara still exsisted i felt that i could arrive back in Canmore with a new job.Sadly the 2 places who said i could have a job when i e mailed them,didnt when i got there.Homeless and Jobless,I luckily found a job at the Canmore Mountain Lodge.I continued my role as Night Auditor there for a few weeks,before i made a big descion.if i wanted to live in Canada permantly i needed to go back to school and while the option was there to work until 2008.I packed my bags and left.i never wanted to leave,the town had come alive,it was pleasent,people cared.Ironically just before i left town i went to a bbq,there at that bbq i saw Tamara for the first time in 6 months.Her response...blank...
