This time I can say I had good weekend. On Thursday evening I had a farewell dinner with my Landlord and his family. This farewell was for me, It was my last day at my old accommodation. I was very happy and honored; for the last 10 months, I'v lived with a great Canadian family who were very kind and just like a second family. The pleasant surprise that, the dinner was "Moroccan" famous dishes "Tajin" and "Kuskos". On the following day, Friday, my ex-landlord and his wife insisted to drive me to my new accommodation which is in the UBC campus. Well, there is no words to explain how I felt they came in, carried my bags with their daughter and drove me to the new accommodation. In the new accommodation, both ex-landlord and his wife have checked every single thing to make sure that everything is going to work fine for me and I will be comfortable in the new place. And most importantly when they found out that in the new accommodation there is no appliances, they offered that I borrow the old ones I used to have. They just drove back to their residence and collected all sort of things, towels, toilette roles, dishes, lamp, soap etc and came back to me. I really don't have the right words to explain what that have meant to me. I am very pleased and I am sure whatever I would do will not repay their kindness to me.
Although I have't seen your host family, they seem to be a really good people. I think they loved you not only because of their personalities, but also because of your personality.
ReplyDeleteChieu, your last sentence spoke for me, too! I was going to say, Sabha, that I think you are very deserving of your host family's kindness!
ReplyDeleteThey are really nice family. And Moroccan food...sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky that you have such a nice family here!! And as Nathan and Chieu said, they love you because of your personality :)
ReplyDeleteI can understand how you felt when you moved because I have been staying with my host family for 10 months and have to move out end of this month.. But you can meet them any time, right? ;)
You are always so nice and of course you deserve it!
