For days I've longed for the Monday. Even if it came over on the blog more like as if it were on the farm not so bad, I must confess that I I held back with my contributions fairly. Especially the last few days I hated extreme. Not only that the work is so incredibly boring and shitty, I could not play the whole family suffer. Especially the mother was a very evil beast, they treated the voluntary workers, just like dirt and read constantly hang out "big boss". How many times I was about her fiddling really sleep the opinion, then moved back but still, I knew exactly knew that the following days would then be crappy. Constantly you were flamed by it in a degrade sound, one should not do this and that. In order
times to be a little more detail: If I was to use times longer than 20 minutes in the right house for wireless, I was immediately angela bert, I do not please all day rumhocken there is, I do not even live there. When I have a day not even eat the disgusting lunch, but instead went to my "hole" have to eat the bread that I was given for breakfast, I was angela bert extreme that I kindly to eat the food on the table is - the bread and cheese I have received crappy I can only eat for breakfast. Also flew in the house permanently this shit birds through the house and even sat at the table.
The bed, air mattress, was when I arrived still covered by previous guests and was very fuzzy. The water that came from the faucet stank of sulfur incredible (same smell like rotten eggs) and next door in front of the shower in the living containers, I have discovered smooth maggots ... .. Think that should be enough for you to get an impression of my last week ....
Since I knew that I certainly do not go along with the three weeks, I would have asked Friday a friend from Edmonton but please tell me on Monday morning to pick up. Before I even contacted couch surfers from Edmonton and directly at the First It has worked directly CouchSurfing for 7 days. I have the family on the farm, where of course not know in advance that I would cut off Monday because I had no idea what they would do otherwise. So I decided to them 10 minutes before my departure to be modest. Said - done. It went very smoothly and then all day at 10 clock in the morning then the horror was over ....
to WWOOFING I can only say that I've probably had quite a bit unlucky with my hosts ... even if it was a pretty lousy experience, but somehow it was an experience for life.
At 11 clock we arrived in Edmonton and then as I was about 12 Host on my couch surfing. His name is Dave and what can I say, is simply a stall here only first class: Extremely spacious, private rooms with clean bed, high-speed wireless internet and only 2 blocks from the "party-mile away. As Dave all day today in Calgary to visit a friend, I still can not get to know him really, but I'm pretty sure he is a super mood. He lived in 9 different countries around the world (at least 3 months) and has visited 56 different countries around ever - a real trip veteran. Just as I was in Vancouver again this time without hesitation, just down the house keys in hand, what can we say, it is simply his great sense of community that is based heavily on trust. If you ever have the opportunity once somewhere to "surf" on a couch (www.couchsurfing.org) then uses this opportunity! Is definitely an unforgettable experience.
I was at about 13 clock alone, I decided to first Edmonton to explore on your own. Compared to Vancouver, Edmonton seems a very sad, naturally poor city to be - very much in the style of a U.S. city with many industrial areas. Is also not surprising, because Edmonton is the "oil city" in Canada. About 3-4 hours north of Edmonton is in fact the second largest oil reserves the world. I'm definitely the first Saskatchewan (a huge river) moved along and finally ended up in Downtown. That Edmonton is the capital of Alberta, today was just incredible void in downtown. I think I've seen run on some days more people than today by heather by Edmonton. But that's probably because that is also a national holiday in Canada today. (Thanksgiving)
Next week, I would still like to travel to Saskatoon and Regina before returning back to Lake Louise. Let's see 'what it is!
I've finally uploaded all the pictures of the last few weeks in different folders.
Because I think desöfteren on my posts and I'm not sure which is better, I throw the question just in the room: Dear rather short and frequent posts (about every 2 days) or long, possibly more profound with pictures? (Approx. 4 days) The contributions 800-1000 words I've ever (almost) always require written, usually just a lot of time, but I have a feeling that they are simply better.
I dedicate a special greeting with this image of my family.
Enjoy the photos are some pretty good here.
Greetings from Edmonton
