This is just a short blog update, and I will start with refreshing your memory: back in October we discussed our future plans (see our blog post about that). We decided to give Yellowknife another try. To see if we can and want to settle down here for a bit, after years of travelling and living abroad for ‘a year’ and then ‘another year’ etc. To see whether we still like this place, so remote and different from anywhere else in the world and to see if we can find a job (leading to a work permit, enabling us to actually live here).
And that’s why we boarded a plane on March 5th, to travel to Canada. We’ve been back for a month now: Some things have changed, a lot has remained the same. So far, Bas talked to pretty much everyone important at both school (board)s in Yellowknife, letting them know we’re back and that Bas is looking for a teaching job. Judith mostly worked for her own business and already did some volunteer work. We have three months left to see what comes up. We will of course keep you posted. And here are some pictures of all the fun things we’ve done so far. Because whatever happens after July, we sure want to make the most of our four months here!
