My name is Carlos. I am 34 years old, and I live in northern Argentina.

Sport is my life. I grew up playing all kind of sports, and the weather here was made just for this: great sunny days, no freezing winters, so it’s suitable for soccer, tennis, volleyball, basketball...and swimming.

Yeah! Swimming is the greatest; I love the sport.

When it’s getting hot and the invasion of mosquitoes breaks out, I just enjoy my time in the swimming pool. I wish I would stay the whole summer under water, because I hate those buggers.

The humidity doesn’t help, either, and the exorbitant water bills just make it worse...

I am a little tired of this life here and I am looking for another place on earth without mosquitoes and without this damned humidity...I feel sleepy and useless when humidity attacks.

Well, it’s time for the big change in my life; I'm looking for a better place to fancy what it means to be alive.

After some tries, I‘ve been accepted to be a teacher and coach in a secondary school in north Canada. Wow! This was unexpected...

I didn’t imagine that I could get rid of mosquitoes and humidity so easily. Thank God the Almighty! He heard my prayers and gave me the chance to live in the most beautiful country on earth.

Without hesitation, I accepted the contract as a teacher and packed up all my stuff.

Wow, this is just unbelievable; let’s see what the little kids of Canada have in store! Especially in terms of sport.

My first week in Canada was amazing: I don’t have enough words to describe the wonderful winter scenes. It's a magical world where everything is whitened by snow, and it’s not as cold as I thought it'd be.

I walked around in the small village I am supposed to work in. Very few people move around outside. Gorgeous! It made me feel like a king in the realm of this natural beauty. And guess what?

I have seen for the first time this big and beautiful animal known as "the deer." What a freaking majestic beast!

The second week was even better. I went out for my first jog and after three miles I felt exhausted.

Though I heard my bones cracking, I really enjoyed my first training session.

The third week was great as well. I am completely prepared to start working at school. I was somehow excited about the idea and happy to occupy my days.

Suddenly, I received a call from school that the classes would be postponed for an unknown period because of the bad weather and the continuous fall of snow.

By the way, I haven’t seen any kids so far!

One month later, my days start to be complicated: More snow every night. It's very beautiful here but I'm just exhausted from shovelling. And I am so bored! I called school again and they told me, 'Just enjoy yourself and when the weather gets better, we will let you know.'
